    Can you get a jazz bass neck pickup sound out of a single humbucker Music Man?

    I've been eyeing some Music Man's for a while and all of the two humbucker ones are expensive and I don't know if they can go between coils. I want a music man because I like the sound of it but I'm a jazz bass guy and I still want to be able to have that sound.
