I just like to fiddle and mess with my gear Although changing my suspension over to whoopies has made adjustments much easier and faster. Mostly just a fiddlier on my part though.

Stock WBBB with straps and buckles. Works fine.
Stock underquilt, works fine.
My only mod was to cut a foot and a half off the hammock webbing straps to save a little weight when backpacking.
but don't get me started on stoves...
You don't need to do any modifications to sleep well on a hammock.
It's just that hammocks are more fun to tinker with than tents.
You can cut a few ounces off the weight, cut a few second off your setup time, make your straps removable so they can be stored separately after being coated with pine sap
You get the idea.

Edit. Or in my case, its obsessive compulsive hammock disorder..which I guess qualifies as neurosis'ssss
i only modify my gear to make my set up faster. all ive done is change the end chanels of my eno to paracord, made a bishop bag for my hammock and skins for my tarp. i dont plan on doing it more any time soon. any hammock is fine out of the box... if they werent, the companies, esp are little cottage places, fix it.

I started with an ENO, I had to modify it. It came with no suspension just some carabiners that weighed a ton. I put whoopies on it and sewed a bug net on loved it..... till i got a WBBB. Then the DYI began! Its an addiction, hobby, sport and a passion. Just start and hang everything will fall into place.
