    New neck for epiphone t-bird?

    I like how my thunderbird sounds but I hate how it plays. The neck is just too wide. I wanna put something more akin to my jazz bass neck on it so I can enjoy playing it. What kind of rules or guidelines should I follow while shopping for a new neck?

    I've got the ampeg 350h. If I'm running no fx, reverb, delay, or reverb with delay it cuts out occasionally. Doesn't cut out if I'm running overdrive though. Anyone have ideas on how to solve this or what the issue may be?
