Thin necked basses

[Kmonk]

I had a late 90s Ibanez EDB600 that had the thinnest neck I have ever seen on a bass. It was easy to play and had a good sound.

You won't do any better than the Ibby SR300 for the price point. I has a 3band active EQ, and QC is top notch. I have 4 of them, and if you're ever in the market for a 5er - do not hesitate to try an SR5 ... the slim, flattened necks are to die for.

Being you want a slim neck - avoid ESP LTD 5ers. They're worlds apart from SR5s with the thick "D" style profile.

Epiphone Classic 4 Thunderbird. Beautiful thin neck. Very fast and comfortable, but the reach is a tad longer than most basses. Feels good though.

I have a 34 and a 30. I am liking the 30 much easier to play. Brice HXB-405. 5 string.

Plays really well change strings bass is active /passive.

My 34 is an Ibanez Sr 785NT,

I have small hands and short fingers. The Ibanez and Brice have 16mm spacing at Bridge and roughly 5/16" at nut , just what a small hand needs. I had a fender 5 string sold it cause neck was thick and wide. I have a 4 string Precision Deluxe Lyte the neck is thin, but the wide string spacing gives me a hard time.

The Ibanez has been my main for a while, but I sure do wish it was med. or short , I would be a lot happier!

I have similar little hands. The Geddy Jazz for me. I also have a MusicMan SUB4, the neck is a little bit bigger than the Geddy but I find I can get the bass "closer" to me so it is still very comfortable to play.
How about a headless bass? I have a wood-bodied Steinberger, thinnest neck I've ever come across. Had to stop using it because even a thin-necked Jazz neck seemed massive compared to it.
Also the VM fretless has a very nice neck if you fancy no frets.
