I have always (meaning in the 8-10 wheels I've built) been impressed with how even I get the spokes by tone. As in, I pluck them while I'm building, and at the end, I'm surprised how close they are using a tensionometer.

Maybe it's luck. Maybe I'm awesome. Or quite possibly, maybe my quality control isn't so hot.
