From everything I have gathered from reading and talking to people, it seems like the semi custom seats are marginally better than stock, and some people have good luck with them and some don't. If you really want to be sure of getting the best seat you can, you have to go to a real custom seat maker who tailors the seat to your specific anatomy and riding position. That usually means going there in person, and surrendering your seat so that they can build the new seat on the original seat pan. There are exceptions to that.

Or, you can do the same thing yourself like BB did, and will probably have to do again.
