Jazz Bass Plus V info needed, please.

…I figured the best place to go for it would be Talkbass!

I've always wanted a jazz-styled bass, but as I'm a "smaller" bassist (5'5",) the “standard” size is fairly unwieldy on me. I’ve recently come across a 1992 Fender Jazz Plus V, which was a “downsized” model (much like Warmoth’s “Dinky J-bass” body style,) and I’m looking for some info on the model while I consider the purchase. (I’ve found nothing on the net, btw.) Some of the information/opinions I’m looking for is;

• Build Quality – In general, how was the build, hardware and wood quality?
  
• Electronics – As I recall, the “plus” series had the same electronics package as the Kubicki Factor basses. Any opinions on how the active electronics work with reproducing a “jazz” tone? Should I consider replacements if the “platform” is worthy?
  
• The B-string – If I remember correctly, this was one of the lower points of the line. Would this be a deal-breaker (I used the low B a great deal,) or are there other solutions? (such as a string-through-body bridge, or upgraded electronics)
  
• Neck size/profile/string spacing – I’m assuming it’s fairly thin, but does anyone have specific numbers for nut/bridge width, string spacing, and neck profile? As comparison, I’m really comfortable on a Pedulla Rapture J-5 with the standard 17.5 mm spacing at the bridge.

Lastly, does anyone have a general idea on how much they’re going for on the used market? I could default to my original plan of building a dinky jazz from Warmoth parts for $500-600, so does it make economic sense to spend that much on a bass that I’m unsure of the quality of?

Thanks in advance from a relative newbee to the forum!
