Nice to have one more bass player along. Since I'm new to both bass playing and building all I can tell you is that they are both quite addictive...
For me every bass is something I would like to try out and some of them I'd like to have/build. Since you already have some experience on modding and fixing things I think you might either build one like you don't have or go completely wild on making a unique version of a known template.
At this time I have a jazz. P and Rick on my wall (last two I've built) and now I'm working on a music man theme. Next might be a P-kit based Tele project or ESB-4.
Plus you can mail Adam and ask about a custom kit if you have something in mind that you'd like to modify from the start.
After you decide on a build - have fun. Just be prepared to make some fine tuning as every kit is slightly different and has different characteristics in grain etc.
