[quote name='4000' post='564342' date='Aug 9 2009, 06:09 PM']My first 2 Seis, both built for me, were less successful than the 2 I own now. Why? Well the first was a 6, my first custom and my first 6 (only the 4th I'd played with a total playing time of about an hour!), so I didn't have much to go on; it was kind of a whim. The second was based around my bass du jour, rather then my bass du vie (I have no idea if that's correct ), which was a mistake. The 2 I've got now are great (although I'm always thinking of tweaks to the 4). If I had one done again, I'm pretty sure I'd get it right. however I might not!
So much to consider, so many options; the thing that really stuffs me is pickups & electronics. Because each individual bass sounds so different acoustically, and you never really know what it's going to sound like until it's finished, fitting the correct pickups/electronics for what you want can be a bit of a crapshoot unless you really know your stuff.[/quote]
