Thank you @Snakeman1066 . Now please pardon my ignorance, but what is CIJ? Japanese? And I would guess they'd be harder to get. Thanks!the CIJ Geddy necks were/are very thin front to back
the MIM Geddy Necks are a little thicker front to back
The USA Geddy necks are the thickest of the Geddy necks front to back
CIJ Geddy Neck Specs:
Neck Profile: Small C-shape
Neck Thickness (IN): 1st: .73" / 12th: .88"
Fingerboard Radius: 9.50
Nut Width: 1-1/2 in
MIM Geddy Neck Specs:
Neck Profile: C profile
Neck Thickness (IN): 1st fret: .78" / 12th fret: .89"
Fingerboard Radius: 9.50
Nut Width: 1-1/2 in
I'm not sure of the measurements for the USA version (I'm still looking) but the difference is perceptible to my hands
you have to remember than there are many Jazz profile necks out there...though they are all 1.5" at the nut...they range from 7.25" radius all the way up to a 12" radius...I prefer 9.5" to 10" radius...they just feel right in my hand
then there are basses with compound or multiple radii !!!

Esp...off white..still a p bass...I don't know if this has been covered before but I don't get to see a lot of White P Basses. So show your White P Basses and describe any modifications that you have done to it.
Here is my Fender Player P Bass with just a couple of mods being that I changed the stock pickups with SD SPB-3s and changed the stock Mint pick guard to Black.

1973 P. It's blond, really.

. I really like getting a jazz style sound with both pickups on, but without any single coil noise. The neck is pretty wide though and I think I might swap it for a jazz neck.
It is the original neck. It is a "B" neck, so maybe not an "A" nut.Is that the original neck? Is it a A nut?
