He won't play it live. He uses those god awful Washburn Firebird wannabe things now, although I suspect he gets paid handsomely for doing so. Like many, I'm a musician because of KISS but I really hope they just go away after the Hall of Fame induction. But it won't happen.
Cool. I was happy to see the white 8 string bass and sad that I didn't get a chance to get one made. Glad to see some basses in with the guitars in the last run.
