NEED A SALE NOW. Hi all, this is a new Fret King Perception bass. It is one that was left over from when I retired so it's not been played at all. Blurb: Fundamentally powerful and expressive, the Fret-King Perception 4 bass has the depth, definition and dynamic ability to provide the all-essential rock solid foundation a band needs. Featuring a two-piece centre-jointed imported American alder body, Canadian hard rock maple neck, and Indian rosewood fingerboard, the Perception 4 bass is built to provide profound performance. Featuring the classic ‘P/J’ pickup combination using Fret-King Alnico V vintage-voiced pickups, the Perception 4 bass rocks! Ice White – Normally £599.00 I'm looking for [b]£360[/b] + carriage, includes FK gigbag too. (There's one on evilbay for £429 ex-display so this is a bargain!)

Thanks for the input guys, this has turned into an interesting thread. I knew John Rackham who owned Wesley and have bought quite a few of his instruments over the years. His setup guy is Annie Lennox's bass player apparently, and he does a hell of a job. They do a Monarch natural bass for about £90 and there's nothing to touch it for the money, it's great! Heard of Johnny Brook but not had one..yet

Crikey that's nice I assume it comes out of the same factory as all the other fakers? Is that the name "Anniversary" ? Cheers for the heads up

I know what you're saying and there is a lot of good cheap stuff out there, I just wondered if anyone had experience of them and you answered my question, very emphatically

That bad eh? I suppose it must be for that price. I once bought a couple of his strat copies and they were really bad too. Got a refund to be fair. Thanks for reminding me.

Anyone ever bought one of these for a project?

I can recommend Nigel Stockbridge in Richmond, North Yorks. [url="http://www.nigelsguitarworkshop.co.uk/"]http://www.nigelsguitarworkshop.co.uk/[/url] I've had a lot of work done over the years though not on bass's. He can repair or set up anything, very clever man who deals with a lot of famous people. Also Steve Suggitt. Lives in West Ayton near Scarborough is another luthier I have used. He builds all kinds of guitars and does repairs and setups. Very talented man. [url="http://www.chapelguitars.com/"]http://www.chapelguitars.com/[/url] And finally, Martin Dixon [url="http://web.ukonline.co.uk/mdguitars/"]http://web.ukonline.co.uk/mdguitars/[/url] Can do anything. I've seen bass's that he's made and they are simply stunning! He's in Otley near Leeds. Hope that helps. Tom.

Sold. Hi, I have an as new Nokia 5800, received as an upgrade, used for 3 days, hate it cos it's touch screen and I'm old and arthritic. Comes with the usual kit, can't find the instruction book as yet but should do before it's sold. Boxed and on Orange at the moment but they can be unlocked cheaply. Happy new Year to all. Tom.
