Most comfortable neck EVER?...

[Claymore]

If you took all the factors into consideration... profile, finish, nut width, fretboard edge, etc, which one hits a home run for you? I thought about this and I nominate my American Performer Jazz. The neck is as close to perfect (for MY hands) as I've ever played but I know everyone has different fingers and preferences. What bass neck does it for YOU?

 

[Leonid Nidis]

American elite P bass.Not crazy about the sound(that is great but not my thing exactlly) but the neck is a dream.

The original baseball bat.

I like a little variety to switch it up for my old hands, but to pick a single favorite would be my Lakland 4-94.

[TexasThunder]

My ‘94 USA Peavey Fury.

 

[darren1970]

Jazz width nut, medium frets and a satin ( non-gloss ) finish to the back.

 

[buldog5151bass]

My Lull P4. 1 3/4" but, but fairly thin front to back.

 

[Dave Siff]

For a 4-string, the necks on the Reverend Rumblefish basses were the best I ever played.
On a 5, my Roscoe fretless can't be beat.

In the last 20 years I've owned 5 string Lakland, Wal, Lull, Fender and Sadowsky and a 4 string Rob Allen. They have all had faultless necks.

Not my favorite neck but the most comfortable for sure. Definitely the bass that allows me to play the fastest.

But it is not my favorite because sometimes it almost feels like a guitar neck. And I like when a neck offers a little resistance and keeps me in check about my technique, if that makes any sense.

I had a '68 Telecaster Bass once. That neck was fantastic! A full 1 3/4" wide at the nut and almost an inch thick at the 1:st fret.
Loved it!

 

[Skillet]

I bought a parts bass with a Sire V7 first gen neck on a Warmoth dinky jazz body. I guess I like the 7.5" radius. It is just stellar.

 

[G On Bass]

My 2 Wilkins PJ5s are it for me. They felt like home the first time I picked them up.No point in even looking at other basses now as there is just no need. No clue what the specs are and don't care.

A jazz neck is best for me
Some of the best jazz necks are
Lakland
Mike Lull
Fender Victor Bailey

 

[chuck65]

G&L 1 1/2 medium C Satin
I have the same neck on two JB4’s and an SB2T .
Works for me

 

[Stewie]

I've never played a Fender that I didn't like. I tried a Rick around 1980, it was okay too.

For me it's three necks. I love the soft/rounded V-esque neck profile of my Squier Jaguar SS and I also love the narrow width of my Hofner Ignition Club Bass and Hofner Galaxie HCT higher up the neck. One day I just may have to recarve the neck profile of my Hofners to be similar to the Squier.

 

[Bass4ThePublic]

I played a dot and bound 66 jazz once, was perfect. The vintera jazz basses are also perfect.
