For around $1k I would look at the Korean Made (MIK) Electromatics.
I have a MIK 5422TG, and I love it.
It punches WAY above it's price point
Tuning is very stable and the MIK equipped bigbsy is smooth and responsive.
(I do make sure the witness points get lubed -- Big Bends Nut Sauce, and as mentioned, I did tend to the nut with a set of nut files)
The Chinese imports are (IME) not quite as solid.
