MusicMan Sterling neck profile?

[timmyo]

Hi folks,

How would you characterise the neck profile on a Sterling? What other types or brands of bass are likely to have something similar (which to my ill-informed hands seems to be narrow compared to a P, but deeper compared to the slim neck on my Squire CV Jazz)

Suggestions? :-)

Thanks

The sterling s a jazz profile.

But there are variations in jazz profiles. The Geddy Lee is very thin for example.

If you want Jazz width but chunkier front-to-back, my Sandberg Basic falls into that category, not sure if the necks are the same across their range though.

Mine has the same width as a typical Jazz, but is fatter from front to back.

Cheers Rev (and others :-) ) - yes I have a CV Jazz and they *feel* very different - the depth on the Sterling seems to make the whole thing just sit nicer in the hand. Are there Jazzes out there that would be close/similar - particular eras/styles or brands?

Thanks all for the replies - I know very little about these things!

The Fender Urge 2 has a lovely neck that sits between a P and J.

Very comfy.

Not really in fashion at the mo so bargains can be found.
