Well, since my first smart alec remark I have narrowed my bass collection to a Regenerate M5 (avatar), a Lakland 55-94 and a Warmoth fretless. The neck on the Regenerate is AMAZING! Like, I sold my Sadowsky after buying it good.

I really like the sadowsky metro will lee 5. Better than the 1 3/4 nut NYC Sadowsky I had. Seems like they refined it with the WL5. And i like it much better than the 1 7/8" sadowskys ... which are themselves better than almost anything else IME.
Way too subjective to really give a helpful answer. That is like asking what type of socks feel the best. I can give MHO... To me; On a 4-String it's the newer '08 > MIA Standard Fender Jazz necks. With a good medium-low set up they feel like butter to me. I like the Newer MIA Deluxe 5's as well. 18mm string spacing is important to me as well. However YMMV.
I have an ATK 305. I like the profile of the neck and the satin finish on the back but the 16.5 km string spacing is
I have never become used to it but I like the bass a lot so I put up with it. Eventually I will buy one of the newer ones.
