1988 Kubicki Ex Factor 4 Drop D, Fretless Bass, Black, serial #761 12 88 on back of head-stock.
Bought it directly in-person from the builder in Santa Barbara, California.

Here we have a Kubicki Factor Bass in 4-string format, with the Drop D Tuner and frettless neck It dates to 1988. Bass is a faculty-fretless, not a conversion.
I think the body is maple, It has a distinctive offset waist design and tuners at the tail. The neck is a headless design with an integrated Drop D tuner lever, and is made from laminated maple for stability and strength. The truss rod adjuster is at the very end of the headstock. The proprietary bridge with integrated tuners works very well, and tuning is smooth and accurate. This bass is sold with a case For more information on Kubicki basses check out KUBICKI | PHILIP KUBICKI – U.S.A.

Nice! I have a fretless Factor bass (same but with a 34" scale and no low-D) and I can vouch for the fantastic fretless tone these have. I think many players associate Kubickis with slap-style players, but they sound incredible with all kinds of styles and techniques.

I had anticipated selling my Kubicki when I finally found a fretless Steinberger, but I just can't get myself to do it. I know I'd really miss it.

Anyway, whoever buys this will love it, I am sure. GLWS!

The bass seems to be in good shape, but it might help your sale if you dusted it off a bit. Someone might mistake the dander for issues with the paint or may think it has a metallic finish.

Good luck with your sale!
