Just built a medium 5 Gecko bass.  Does anyone have any specs on what the neck relief should be and what fret to measure from?  Thanks!
 
Hi welcome to the forum.

Just treat it as any other bass. Fender specs are 6/64" for string height and relief can be found in this PDF. Use the measurements as a starting point and adjust to taste.

Finally post some pics of the Gecko as I am sure the forum would be keen to see it.
 
I used those industry specs as a starting point.  Just wasn't sure if anyone had "tribal knowledge".  I'll post pics when I'm done.
 
Setup is so personal, and the difference between 34 and 35 slight, that it's a wash when it comes to numbers.
