I just think Tommy overstepped the bounds with that guitar. He’s a hired gun just trying to make a living. In response to Thayer’s recent announcement that he intends to launch a new custom Les Paul guitar named ‘Spaceman,’ the original space ace sent a few verbal rockets and wordy warheads in the direction of his brash imitator. Calling the young upstart a copycat guitar player who should know his place. The Space Ace responsible for Kiss’s signature guitar sound also had a thing or two to say about his replacement Tommy Thayer. In a recent interview with Classic Rock, former Kiss guitarist Ace Frehley has pulled no punches when it comes dissing the dirt on his former bandmates, Gene Simmons and Paul Stanley.
