Suggestions and Comments for new bass, Gecko 6 project!

[Gokhan91]

Hi guys I'm planning to build a new Gecko 6 but I decided to tell you about my project and get your opinions first.

The woods which I choose is:
Black Korina Body, Quilt Maple Top
Birdseye Maple Neck, Ebony Fingeboard

Electronics:
Nordstrand Pickups (not decided the model yet but they will be humbuckers) (single-dual switch to seperate coils)
Piezo Pickup at the bridge
John East 4-knob deluxe preamp

Bridge:
Hipshot Triple Lock Down Individual String Bass Bridges

I know I'm going to get a good sound but I don't know what will it sound like. Can you help me?
Now I want some comments for my wood selections and some suggestions for piezo pickup.

Looks like it's going to be a great bass. No doubt those more knowledgable than myself will give an idea as to how it will sound.

As for suggestions, Ghost (Graphtec) make replacement saddles with piezo elements already in them as well as their own Acoustiphonic preamp. I would go with the ACG/East filter based preamp as well.

Good luck with the project!!
