Gibson Custom recently announced that it had recreated one of the most famous guitars in music history – the Ace Frehley “Budokan” Les Paul Custom. It was the “Budokan” Les Paul that the KISS legend played throughout 1977-78, just as the band were becoming world superstars. For the new, limited run of Ace Frehley “Budokan” Les Paul Custom guitars, the Custom Shop worked closely with Ace as well as the guitar’s current owner, collector and KISS superfan Matt Swanson.
During a recent trip to Gibson Custom in Nashville, Tennessee, Swanson sat down for a chat about the unique attributes of the “Budokan” guitar that, through the Custom Shop’s detailed and perfectly accurate recreations, can now be owned by other guitar fans.
