I did have a look at the Squier active Jazz, and 51 precision, but as I already own a 78 precision, I think I may want an alternative to a Fender.
The Ibanez didn't really do it for me, looks wise, sorry guys!
Nobody has mentioned the Cort, so I am still thinking Yamaha or Warwick/Rockbass.
Keep 'em coming though,

I bought a Cort Curbow recently (i'm selling it but it's a 5er). Dinky little body but still feels like a proper bass un the strap, very well made with great components and electrics. The bridge in particular is a recessed chunky unit. The slap switch is useful (this and the EQ gain can be attenuated with trim pots) so it's versatile, the 3 band Bart eq is good too
If it were my choice i'd get a Warwick Corvette. Mine is extremely well made
