Hello,me again,a very crazy kubicki fan.Here's another question,I know that factor/exfactor are in very low production quantity,but how long is the production cycle of them?Three months?Half of a year?
Thank you for all your replies.
 
Yes!I want to know that how long does it take to make one ,sorry for my English

No idea. It depended on the demand for them, Phil's health when he was still alive, etc. many reasons.
Obviously during the height of their popularity Phil couldn't keep up and turned to the folks at Fender to help out. Who knows how many they made on any given day, week or month.
Like I said they're no longer in production so answering your question is basically impossible.
 
Actually, they are in production but on a very limited basis. You can have one specially built but who knows how long the wait list is and what the wait time would be. Also, expect them to be very expensive. Mongo2 had the right answer but since that post, they just released a brand new website KUBICKI | PHILIP KUBICKI – U.S.A. but you will have to send them an email to get your answer. And when you do, please let us know what they say.
 
Correct. When I composed the post. Technically I knew that it had recently become possible through the right channels but it would be a consorted effort of contacting and coordinating with Mike and Carla to get things moving. The announcement it was now Possible through the new site was basically just launched a day or two ago.

Edit: Also Kubicki's (Ex-Factor only for starters) being in or out of production is not the answer to the OP. The question pertained to the duration of production time.
