Est. $40,000-$45,000 Ace Frehley's "Kiss" Love Gun Tour Spacesuit Including Leotard, Platform Boots, Cuffs & Top W/COA - This spectacular piece is a custom made "Spacesuit" costume worn by Ace Frehley during Kiss' Love Gun tour. The spacesuit includes a black, rhinestone embellished leotard with a silver lamè top and matching cuffs and platform boots. The Love Gun Tour was a concert tour by Kiss, in support of their "Love Gun" album. This was the first tour where Ace Frehley sang lead vocals, on "Shock Me", and was the only tour to feature the song "Hooligan" in the set list. This was also the first tour to feature "Calling Dr. Love" in the set list, and Cheap Trick and Styx were the opening acts throughout the tour. The costume will be accompanied by a certificate of authenticity. Ace Frehley (born April 27, 1951) is an American musician and songwriter who is the former lead guitarist and co-founding member of the rock band Kiss. "Guitar World" magazine ranked him as the 14th Greatest Metal Guitarist of All Time, and his solos often incorporate the minor pentatonic scale and the use of vibratos. Outside Kiss, Frehley had commercial success, with his first solo album going platinum, and his first album with his "Frehley's Comet" band was also a big seller. Frehley is also known for the use of many "whimsical" guitars, including a Gibson Les Paul guitar that emits smoke from the neck humbucker pickup and produces spinning pyrotechnics, and a custom Les Paul that emits light based on song tempo. Please note: the costume does show some signs of wear to the silver lamè, as this is a costume worn during a rock and roll tour.
