Please recommend me basses with thick necks

Pbass. Late 90’s/2000s Warwick
I'm interested in a squier P, specifically the matt freeman one. Do you know if squier Ps are thick as well? Thanks
One of the biggest necks I have run across is the bolt-on neck on a mid-zeros era Korean made Thunderbird IV. They are bolt on necks that are 1-3/4" wide and have a big, round back profile. You can routinely find them for $200 to $250.
Thanks for the tip. Are Thunderbirds usually thick, or just this one?

My Ibanez ATK305 has a fairly thick neck. Less rounded than a Stingray neck. It’s not super wide. String spacing is 16.5 mm but it’s chunky. Just like I like it.
Good to know it has a thick neck, i prefer small string spacing.

Ibanez BTB Series have thick necks. And you can find them used Should be able to get a real nice one for 600.00
thanks for the recommendation, i thought it had a thin neck
