The five-string Fret-King Black Label Perception 5 plays around with a familiar formula to serve up high-grade bass sound with a rumbling, extra-deep low-end. Packed with the sheer quality of a vintage antique and refined by contemporary playability and stability, the Perception 5 takes an old-school P-style bass to the new-school.
The Fret-King Perception 5: Innovation & Upgrades
The neck profile has been enhanced and the join at the heel has been deepened to offer smoother access to the higher frets and elevate playing comfort, while the full-scale 34-inch layout is comfortably wide so the dark ebony fretboard is navigated with agile speed. The exclusive, custom-designed Fret-King pickup configuration plants a single-coil at the bridge and a split-coil in the middle position – tweak the dedicated pair of volume pots and master tone pot to swing from a deep growl to a round punch at will. This setup has been mounted onto a two-piece alder body and coupled with a Wilkinson-designed WBBC bridge, a set of Wilkinson WJBL 750 mini-tuners and a graphite nut to lay down stable tuning and intonation, boosted sustain, improved resonant transfer and articulate tone.
