Find a good used bass fro 200-250. Then go to Warmoth and have them build you a neck to your specs, you will get exactly what you want, they have never failed me. (PS: order over the phone, you might get your pint across better)

The thickest neck I've ever played was on a Hagstrom Swede bass. They're worth looking into!
Warwicks are also thick as heck.

My Ibanez TMB100 is pretty hefty, I love it! It’s become one of my favorite profiles.

I love the sound and look of this bass, good to know it has a thick neck. ThanksThe g&l l2000 tribute has a pretty chunky neck and could be found well below your budget if buying second hand.

I'm interested in a squier P, specifically the matt freeman one. Do you know if squier Ps are thick as well? ThanksPbass. Late 90’s/2000s Warwick
Thanks for the tip. Are Thunderbirds usually thick, or just this one?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 recommendationsMy 2015 Rick 4003, 63 AVRI, and 58 AVRI all have pretty thick necks.
Good to know it has a thick neck, i prefer small string spacing.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.
thanks for the recommendation, i thought it had a thin neckIbanez BTB Series have thick necks. And you can find them used Should be able to get a real nice one for 600.00
