mr.noisy Posted June 30, 2011 Share Posted June 30, 2011 (edited) Okay, I've picked this bass as a trade from here, but i'm still looking for something else. This is a Kubicki Ex-Factor bass in white, made in 1989 in Fender Custom Shop, but with 18v preamp and 6 position switch. These are a very unique basses, huge tonal range thanks to the preamp, and really lightweight! Headless means forget about the neck diving. This bass is 22 years old and have been used by previous owner (or owners) a lot, so there is a few small dings and one bigger wchich you can see on the pics. There is also some lacquer cracks, but these are nothing serious, only lacquer and not the wood. All of them you can see on the pics. Fast and slim neck, 32" scale witch a 36" scale E string extension (D-tuner). Frets are in perfect condition. This is a really comfortable and great sounding bass, you can find many great reviews of these bases around the internet. Unexpected expenses just hit me so this one has to go immediately, so price is bargain [s]750£[/s] 725£ ONO And this is collection only as i dont have a hardcase and i dont want to risk postage in gig-bag.

Chris2112 Posted July 1, 2011 Share Posted July 1, 2011 Is that #1779? I used to own #1777 funnily enough, also a white 1989 model with the 6 position preamp. Was a great bass, not quite as good as my current Ex Factor though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris2112 Posted July 6, 2011 Share Posted July 6, 2011 Because I don't have a fretless anymore. After I had accepted the cost of my Series II, I decided that selling it for cash isn't really worth it so I'd float it out there on the chance that the right fretless comes along and just keep enjoying it in the meantime.

[/quote] Propably yes, it was 622, but that was my auction and i didn't sold this bass anyway. Transaction was cancelled because i had no idea that there is such a low interest in this bass at the moment. That price was far too low, am i right? Then i tried again with a fixed price auction and here with a lower price than on ebay because of fees. Anyway, bass is now part traded and i'm more than happy with that.

No scratches, frets good, neck great and electronics perfect. A mint condition fretless went for about £800. I think your expectations are too high, bearing in mind that yours is not great cosmetically. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
