Philip Kubicki was a frontrunner in early custom builds for Fender, known for building the George Harrison Rosewood Telecaster and a Rosewood Strat for Jimi Hendrix, which he unfortunately never received. After his tenure with Fender, he went out on his own to innovate and construct ergonomic instruments, thus, the Factor bass! A fast and slender bass with tons of modern features. This example is lightly used with minor evidence of handling. Includes original hardshell case.
