This is a very good quality plate, made by Fatboy Guitars Ltd. in Newport England, probably about 20 years ago. I have had it in a drawer for years and never even removed the plastic film so it is in new unmarked condition. The colour is a very pale mint green to my eyes which is not captured in the photos. Price includes UK postage.

I used some old Picatos I had lying around but I don't think they make them anymore. These look good alternatives and they should be a good fit: https://www.bassdirect.co.uk/product/la-bella-760fl-s-deep-talkin-bass-flats-light-43-104-short-scale/

The Ibanez Mikro was my choice after trying a few shorties and I love it. I changed the strings to flats because I like that sound, otherwise it's perfect. I bought mine from Amazon with next day delivery and free returns: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Ibanez-GSRM20-MiKro-Electric-Guitar/dp/B00YNJGBL6/ref=nav_signin?crid=1A7T2YZ6L695R&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.I0otZrhyHz_aDn61EVJYnWyfCbvDpotpKl4hQchOtJOZwLBHR75NoRC71QBJpx69VNHixH3gUPaJ2VVElMFCe9Ed7pq2YgrjQNIS8UZoAm63xrPuweL8M6Zls3G7l4jzzF8bHSTzD-7IlEZua35iltLZ5OA44in0F-2FWwUhDtfY2xwJOgiVZfCaUdLj3jFsq3KhMpLg8vBr10_KFtykt7EBNrpz4ON8mli5d6O38wyUdyvIayJxLpCNz4au0IZmwliDkW6nXdlchaiYD5E-O_JBO7ZCjNKihoB3jWFUBqo.1jVasVGFw1IDnVCWudZCLu0Y0K-Bqrn39Mkst6vBbcA&dib_tag=se&keywords=ibanez%2Bmikro%2Bbass&qid=1757513174&sprefix=the%2BIbanez%2BMikro%2Caps%2C103&sr=8-1&th=1

Thanks for everyone's input. I decided to resist the temptation and carry on with my old Jazz bass for now. A black JMJ is top of the list if I am drawn back...

Thanks for the heads up ez...

I thought my bass buying days were over and I haven't been near Basschat for years... But just when you think you're out, they pull you back in I suddenly want a Mustang and I've narrowed it down to 3 main contenders - Squier Classic Vibe, Fender Vintera or Fender JMJ signature. Does anyone have experience of any or all of these basses? Is the difference in quality justified by the relative prices? My gigging days are probably over, it's mainly for recording reggae and dub music.

Keep up the good work

Does anyone know the names of any of these riddims?

Very nice playing on this - thanks for the link.

Thanks - Head Gardener is a new project with everything recorded remotely - some of the contributors have never actually met each other.

Thanks for that - This track was a live jam on the Unmetered Taxi riddim by Sly & Robbie and it's not on Spotify. The original:
