GURPS Campaigns is not clear on this point. Am I just being dense? I would assume base skill, but I'm not actually sure. For instance, consider a weapon of high quality that provides a bonus to hit. Does this bonus go into the parry calculation?

I don't think your parry is affected directly by anything but penalties to the defense rolls (deceptive attacks, feints, footing, etc). I don't have any books with me so I can't check to verify.

Parry is found from base skill.

I'm surprised. I would have thought that things like Weapon Bond and Fine Balance would improve your ability to parry.

Weapon Bond in fact improves your base skill with a particular weapon; it isn't a bonus to hit. I'd let a balanced weapon work this way, too. It's situational modifiers and flat bonuses to hit that wouldn't matter; sorry I was unclear in my first post.
