Ace Frehley At Guitar Center

[@RokDAWG1]

Ace told me years ago that it can be sloppy, miss a note or three, but don't lose the feeling or the groove. Sometimes he misses notes, I don't care it still sounds awesome!!

[@mikeimmonen6619]

Well let me tell you the story of a man called Alexi Laiho. Once upon a time he went through the motions of playing note after note with surgical precision. Now after years of touring and drinking he's let himself go, and has neither technique nor feel

[@blackpanterpower-fh5gn]

true story but i dont care i feel the same about neil young

[@leokimvideo]

Many people don't understand the influence Ace had on so many guitar players and bands. The simple fact is back in the 70's and 80's so many people had a go at guitar because of Ace. His playing sounds cool. He has a style, look and sound that's simply him. He doesn't copy other artists and stays true to his art. Sure I'm a Ace fan but I know a real rock star when I see one.

I mean, he had Ace Frehley sign his chest, then he got that signature tattooed permanently on his body. He was definitely a fan.

[@theoriginalrabbithole]

One of the things Ace left out. For a long time, MSG had these huge 50 posters on the front of the building, each one representing the different types of events the venue hosted. An NBA basketball player, an NHL hockey player, a boxer, etc. and a picture of Ace with his smoking guitar was the picture representing rock concerts.

Several of the most memorable riffs and solos, and a great showman with his own style, what else do you really need?! Legend.

[@mikeimmonen6619]

Using the volume knob for solo boost is such an old school trick. And having used that at practice and live I gotta say, it just plain works

[@97warlock]

i tried it many times, in orderr to get the volume back enough it would cost me some gain, which i didnt like, bought eq's still didnt quite get it right, after 3 years bought a used Fender volume pedal. the kind with the string, later tried morelys and the smoothness of the fender was just AWesome.

@@jimhoffmann, strange that a guy writing a book about this says that Ace WASN’T electrocuted, yet everybody knows that he was. Am I mistaken? “Based upon the actual near electrocution of Ace Frehley prior to taking the stage at a concert in Lakeland, Florida, on December 12, 1976...”

Ace's solo on Strange Ways is the best hands down.

[@IngemarGustafsson]

RockTheSix 73 Yeah, that solo is extraterrestrial!

[@mflemmer2]

No doubt, I couldn't agree more. Even back in the 70's that was my favorite solo of his. As a guitarist who has been playing since the 70's, I am pretty capable, and can play the solo from Shock Me pretty spot on, but the solo from Strange Ways is nearly impossible to duplicate. He was really in the zone on that one, with his playing drifting in and out of feedback, and alternating between inside and outside of the actual key of the song. Still my favorite of his---very Hendrix inspired.

[@jmromero6381]

mflemmer2 Agreed. I didn't hear anything remotely like it until Randy Rhoads recorded the lead for "Can't Kill Rock and Roll."

[@RandyFricke]

It was recorded backwards. That's why it sound so "otherworldly."

[@ACEDIAMOND666]

Agreed.

[@jbacarel]

Ace plays with a great R&R attitude. Yes, he plays largely the same scales & patterns, but that's what also makes Angus Young & Joe Perry so cool. Swagger, attitude & groove are an important part to appreciating his legendary style. Ace rocks !!

[@travisbartram2943]

I wish all the young guitarist's and technical guru's would go watch/listen to Ace playing live back in his heyday 76-78? He had an excellent flow/tone/vibrato and squeezed every ounce a feel tone and emotion from every note he played? His harmonic picking style mixed with his deep vibrato made him stand out amongst other guitarists of the time using his limited technical ability and speed. His leads / solos were like another vocal part of the song and could pull you in like they were words. Obviously drugs and alcohol and lack of practicing stopped him from progressing and left him sounding the way he does now. And that's fine he has nothing to prove he already did back in the day. I strongly advise even the most proficient musicians to go back watch what he did live, see and feel what he was doing? and actually try to learn something from him to make yourselves better lead guitarist's. There's something that almost all technical guitarists are missing and that's learning to breathe and give air and space between notes? It's more how you say it? Than how technical or fast? A solo or lead is nothing if it can't be hummed or remembered? Anyhow yes I do not like seeing Ace doing these videos nowadays it does make me cringe but I dare any of you technical musicians to make a video of yourself standing up with your guitar strap down lower not hiked up to your chest, and look straight ahead moving around and play one of his live solos to any song you like and let's see how you sound? It doesn't count if you just play the notes you have to show that you can pull off what he did straight through Marshall no reverb or effects and get the results he did live. Big tasty bends, pinch harmonics that fall off a ghost bend and do the trills and alternate triads and make it all flow. 👍 Please post on comments

[@sixslinger9951]

yes he was awesome and I am a fan from those days,..... but come on, he shouldn't be playing today if he sounds like this. Sounds like he hasn't picked up the guitar in 40 years.

Agreed . Trolls gotta troll.... that's all they live for in their useless miserable lives. Seeing others receive praise and acclimation drives them mad.

[@mads32]

Absolutely one of my biggest guitar heros. His style is so old-school bluesy and ballsy! I love how he is having several minor mishits and not everything is in perfect time and sloppy, etc. which gives it that real and authentic rock sound and feeling. I see so many musicians these days focusing way too much on clean picking, speed, theoretical right but predictable soloing and technique over the human feeling!

In that time it was a big thing, today it's common and don't forget, Ace created some awesome riffs that he's recognized not only in the USA for but also around the world.He's a cool guy and knows and has played with other rock icons on stage.

Ace helped me co-write my/our song (Baby, I love you) Give it a listen . . . you'll DEFINITELY hear what I'm talking about. Met Ace twice, met him a million times! He's THAT easy going!

[@lavasmokechile]

Kewl beans! Ace, the man himself, +1'd my comment!

[@Capten_Wonder]

I'm mid thirties and all of my guitar influences growing up can be traced back to this guy. Its insane.

[@rubbersole79]

So much has been said by so many, and not all of it good. But for me, as a kid in the 70's, seeing and hearing this band and this guitarist.........fricken ecstasy man.....

[@sauletto1]

100 % ,man ! Truth.

[@MikeBodo]

Amazing the number of people dissing on Ace's playing, yet when I watched and re-watched the video he's playing as clean and fast as I've seen him in quite some time. For a dude in his mid 60's who I'm sure has lost some dexterity over the years, as we all do with age, I'll take him over all of his contemporaries (save Alex Lifeson from Rush) who are still out touring.

[@warptek]

Amazing the number of people who could outplay Ace but can't compose a decent solo like Ace Frehley has done on just about every track over the years. That takes a certain je ne sais quoi which many players lack.

[@benjaminbreeg9838]

He is not the best player but there's something you cannot get with practise: FEELING. There's plenty of feeling in his solos.

[@ThomasGers-ct3br]

I love the song about your reincarnation

[@MusicMotivator]

[@BigDaddy-nt6yc]

Yes. Yes we did. 😎

[@lifesgreat9951]

[@perrymatherne2021]

Ace is the man

[@SWIXGIN]

Ace is the reason I started playing

[@Turboy65]

He's got his own sound and he's expressive. Is he the cleanest playing, most technically adept guitar player ever? No. Nor does he have to be. Rock and roll is not about technical perfection.

[@nickvitela]

60 years old.. He's still sounds amazing

[@sixslinger9951]

get your hearing checked

[@Christine16425]

​@@sixslinger9951pourquoi 🤔 why ?

[@JBmusicart]

I'd say it was Aces guitar playing that made me want to play rock music. He sounded so rock and roll. And for a good reason, all his heros were people like chuck berry and hendrix

[@Jake8857]

ace was the reason i bought a les paul way back when i was a kid

[@ferox965]

One of my fave solos by Ace is Remember Me from Trouble Walkin

[@dibbo9264]

Ace Frehley is a legend

[@brennanking9213]

Say what you want about Ace or KISS as a whole, the man is a legend 🤘

[@jimmyamico4713]

Ace Freyley, Jimi Hendrix, and jimmy page are the best lead guitarists in the world.. in my opinion❤️🤍💛🇺🇸

[@buriedinconcreteusa]

Ace rules.. space with Ace!

[@joeshlong9614]

He’s rock and roll no doubt about it

[@JohannDaart]

It's 2020 and Ace is still hitting that E chord in every interview.

[@Paul1963music]

Ace Frehley 👍👍👍👍👍

[@JohnAC4]

Man. He’s still got it

[@blueridger28]

Ace is the man!
