LewisK1975 Posted December 1, 2015 Share Posted December 1, 2015 Anyone know of any Basses made like that? I know there are Precisions which have more Jazz type necks, but what about the other way round? I really like the sound of a Jazz, but I played P-Basses for so long that it's just what feels comfortable to me... Any suggestions??

hubrad Posted December 1, 2015 Share Posted December 1, 2015 If you can track one down, the Aria STB-JB is just such a thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
discreet Posted December 1, 2015 Share Posted December 1, 2015 The Mark Hoppus bass is a Jazz body with a P neck... however it's got a P pickup too, so... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LewisK1975 Posted December 1, 2015 Author Share Posted December 1, 2015 Just reading another post that the new-ish USA Geddy Lee Jazz has a thicker profile, but still 1.5" at the nut, might be worth a look.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lw. Posted December 1, 2015 Share Posted December 1, 2015 You could just buy a P neck & put it on your jazz - I'm thinking of doing this at the moment because when I flick back to the jazz from my (chunky-necked) Warwick it's just too thin for comfort.

[/quote] I feel the same... I love the look and sound of Jazz basses but just don't get on with the necks. I think some kind of bitsa may be in the offing.

[/quote] Yeah I did think of that - my Jazz is a sunburst Geddy Lee mexican made. Very nice indeed and great sound, just wish the neck was a bit bigger! Do like the maple with black block inlays tho, very nice! Edited December 1, 2015 by LewisK1975 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

inate_hex Posted December 11, 2015 Share Posted December 11, 2015 http://basschat.co.uk/topic/274438-p-bass-with-slim-neck/ maybe you guys could buy basses and just swap necks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
