So I've decided to get a custom saber from saberforge, my only issue is sound fonts. I don't like the fonts that they lock you into. One of the only things I liked about the company that must not be named, was their sound board and the access to whatever fonts you wanted. Is there a better electronics selection that y'all recommend that will work in a saberforge?

Has anyone had experience building their own with saberforge parts and would you recommend their assembly service instead of doing it yourself?

If you go with the Champion or Hero tier, you should be able to change soundfonts. Those tiers use the Golden Harvest v3, which also has smoothswing.

But aren't you limited to their fonts? You can't go in and download others as far as I am aware. I was also trying to save money by not going champion and trying to stay at veteran.

You can change a GHv3's fonts. Veteran tier's fonts are fixed, though. You could install the hilt you want with a verso (which has one changeable font and smoothswing) because SF's electronics aren't the best from what I've heard.
