Thin U shape Contour question.. need some answer ASAP

So I'm trying to make the decision of buying an esp ltd vintage 204 bass without playing one. It's used but in excellent shape. I'm looking for a p bass with PJ pickups but I need to have a comfortable neck. I'm used to standard Mexican jazz necks which is a modern c with a 1.5 nut. The esp 204 has a 42mm nut which is more like a p bass but it also is a slim U contour. I was told to play a standard fender p bass and that's what the esp neck would more or less feel like. The thing is, is the fender p neck isn't a slim u profile. My question is, is the slim U contour neck a fast action comfortable neck? If I prefer jazz necks, even though this has a thicker nut width, will this neck be for me? Or should I stay way?
