Thanks Deanovw for adding the pics - don't know how you managed that.
Hamfist - I sourced the plate and knobs from eBay.
Regarding the price. Firstly, I see that GAK have the basic bass for £638 (typical, buy a bass and then see it cheaper elsewhere!!). Secondly, the scratch plate, knobs, Elite strings and the SKB hard case cost just over £165. So, I still think £715 is a fair price for the bass plus the extras.
