Description

Paul Daniel "Ace" Frehley (/ˈfreɪli/; born April 27, 1951) is an American musician and songwriter best known as the former lead guitarist and co-founding member of the rock band KISS. He invented the persona of the "Spaceman" or "Space Ace" and played with the group from its inception in 1973 until his departure in 1982. After leaving KISS, Frehley embarked on a solo career, which was put on hold when he rejoined KISS in 1996 for a highly successful reunion tour.

Frehley is well-recognized for using Gibson Les Paul guitars, including his trademarked model conversion Les Paul Custom (that he modified himself), which filled the stage full of smoke during his live guitar solo.

This black and white public domain photo of Ace was completely restored by me. I added filters and various effects to exemplify more strongly the flaming Les Paul spectacle witnessed as he soloed on guitar. A little artistic license was taken with the addition of the flames onto the boots.
