Looking for Bass 5 string with narrow spacing

[SteelTango]

Does any company make a good 5 string with slim neck and narrow spacing. The Ibanez Gerald Veasley is a 6. or good slim neck at bass Any suggestions?

Ibanez has a few. My favorite of the ones I've owed was my German warwick thumb neck through 5. It has relatively tight spacing and the bridge allows you to adjust string spacing so you can even make it tighter if you want.

PRS's Gary Grainger 5 has a very comfy neck with fairly narrow spacing, at least compared to my Fender Jazz 5. Pricey, but nicey.

I once read an article that described Ibanez offerings as "pencil-necked groovers". That would be a start. Not sure what your budget is but a Millennium 5 would be within anybody's reach. Thin comfortable neck, narrow spacing, US made, and top-shelf hardware unlike some of the chintzy stuff I'm seeing on the imports. Here's an example:

If you have a few extra bucks, the Pedulla Rapture (single pickup) would also fit the bill:

Just examples, mind you.

+1 for Ibanez. The SR basses are mostly known for they slim and fast necks, plus narrow string spacing.

Also Spector basses have a narrow string spacing.
