I've been playing on an early '90s Ibanez SoundGear for quite some time now, and have yet to find another bass that has the same playability / feel / tone. However, the years are taking their toll and the neck's starting to twist. Either buying a replacement neck or a new bass, I'm looking at a new neck regardless. I don't seem to mind width so much, but depth is the kicker; I really liked the skinny shallow neck the Ibanez has. Only other neck I can remember liking was on a Peavy.

Just looking for some community suggestions. Something nice and quality, but also easy to obtain that won't completely break the bank. Appreciate!
