I recon without wicks i might go something headless like a Status, heard a cusotm5 recently and it sang with a similar tone to my jazzman, clear and bright. Other than that i probably would go something like the Marcus miller jazz, or a local custom......actually all of those are on my dream list anyway.
I try and keep the mindset of not buying wicks, just buying basses i am impressed with.....just happens that the last few that have blown me away have been wicks. Actually after having three wicks, few other basses really meet the standards in my head of what a bass should be. I have bought a couple "good for the price basses" (a cort and a Korean Spector) but they were not amazing basses, just useful and affordable.
