I haven't been able to stop at just two... or three.... or four....

But, keep an eye out for a used Musicman Stingray or Sterling. They play nicely, are well-built, and used should be about in your price range. Having said that, though, a good Jazz should be able to do most anything you'd like to do.

There are LOTS of choices out there, though...
