umm, what would i do if it was me???
i mean certainly for the original and simplest design go for the standard jazz, but if i was me id go for a cheaper jazz and modify it yourself, then it would be more your instrument, or even scratch build a jazz, e.g.body from warmoth or ebay, neck the same, or even a status graphite one, pickups/electrics of your choice and hardware is your choice too...i think it would make it a lot more personal...
just my opinion though mate
up 2 you
hope this helps
