One of the electric bass’s most enduring styles, the Fret-King® Perception™ has been the instrument of choice for independent thinking bass players for nearly three decades. Synonymous with the needs of the journeyman bass player, delivering outstanding tone, feel and balance, the active Perception™ Custom speaks to the bass player’s love of tradition and introduces thoughtful innovation in the form of a truly outstanding pickup and preamp combination from Aguilar. The enduring style, superb balance, comfort and feel of the Perception are exactly what works, with a contemporary twist that remains friendly and comfortable the Perception Custom has it all.

Perception Custom Features

Body:
The selected American alder body, with bookmatched flame maple front features an extended neck joint which all coalesce to maintain the Perception Custom’s elegance and purity of line, and ensure the foundations of a constructional integrity which provides strength, superb resonance, amazing sustain and a truly epic bass tone.

The unique reduced profile neck joint and subtly extended cutaway offers enhanced upper fret access. The superb overall balance and ‘Forearm Scoop’, make the Perception™ Custom a pleasure to wear.

Headstock:

Worth it! Get it
Color: 1a. Clear, Size: 72"W x 72"L (Pack of 1)
I was pleasantly surprised at the quality of this shower curtain liner, especially for the price. We have bad water; turns other liners a pinky orange color. This has not turned colors, thick material. And I love how it has magnets to keep it attached to the tub to avoid water getting out onto the floor

Liner Filled with Lots of Light
Color: 1a. Clear, Size: 72"W x 72"L (Pack of 1), Color: 1a. Clear, Size: 72"W x 72"L (Pack of 1)
Basic liner with the added magnets so you are not constantly having to put your curtain where it needs to go to prevent water from your shower escaping and ruining your floor. Does exactly as it is intended and is clear so light is allowed into your shower where you can finally see things and not have to guess. Packaged folded and neatly into a plastic and thick wrapper and all you need to do is open, unfold and install with ease. It fit perfectly into the hooks and the length and width of my shower as the description accurately states. When the time comes for that monthly cleaning, just un-attach and throw into your washing machine and then air-dry and it’s brand new once more.
