I've got a nice Bacchus Woodline active Jazz Bass, but over the years the neck bent severly. Bacchus doesnt answer my mails and the local luthiers cost me more than a new bass. So, now to my question: I have the hardware and electronics of the Bacchus bass and I want to know, which bass can be a solid replacement for upgrading. I dont live in the US and importing from Warmoth costs me quite a lot. I've been thinking of a Marcus Miller V3 or a Cort GB34 JJ.

Do you have other recommendations or ideas? Any help would be nice!

Old Carvin basses are solid instruments and play really well. They have a pretty distinct aesthetic which is obviously very subjective, but I really like my LB75. The active electronics are pretty meh, but your Bacchus should be a decent upgrade.
