What bass has the thinest neck?

Early Guild "Newark Street" (MIK) Starfires are narrow (1.5" nut and narrow taper) but are not super thin (front-to-back). Current production spec is slightly wider.

(MIJ) Mustang is also narrow. I also have an older SX "P-Bass" that has a neck similar to that of the Mustang. Later ones I've played have a wider nut with more taper.

All basses mentioned above are short scales.
