Awesome Bass.

I own serial no. 1113 in the same colour and made just one month earlier.

If I remember correctly, these would have been made by Philip Kubicki in his Santa Barbara workshop but we're marketed / sold by Fender, prior to the FCS licensing agreement.

These pre Fender basses don't appear for sale very often and you would be very lucky to find one in better condition. GLWTS.

Absolutely gorgeous bass and absolutely superb pics. This is pure Basschat porn, 32 likes and counting. GLWTS. Whoever ends up owning it;  I (and a lot of others here) don't like you very much 😡 .

I would like the buyer a lot more if they at least let me have a go 😆

You're killing me, I had another red one, also an '88 build, don't remember the month or production number but clearly Phil had a chock load of orders for red Ex-Factors that year. These were indeed Phil's own handy work, the FCS builds were designated with the CS logo pressed into the back of the "headstock" such as it was. The Fender builds tended to get looked at as lower end for some reason, from Phil's own words the only real difference was the slightly less complicated preamp/control set used on the Fender builds, they had the same laminate neck right down to the filled wooden dowel hole near the date stamp but with the CS label under the production #. Phil was a genius, most comfortable bass I ever owned, and I've owned way too many. Can't believe I traded it, got an early production Yamaha Japan R&D shop TRB4p, a Hartke 410 and some cash for it back around 1990 😉
