KISS Edition 1978 PS-10 'Iceman' Signature

That is Paul Stanley's signature! On his signature guitar!

Bone stock, as it should be. First production year. Collector's dream.

Rosewood fretboard
Maple top
Abalone purfling
Stock V2 open-coil humbuckers (Designed to Paul's exacting specifications)
Gibraltar bridge mounted to a heavy metal sustain block for lightning response and long sustain
Modified Gibraltar tailpiece with the serrated arrowhead-shaped chrome ornament
Half bone, half brass nut
The bridge can be locked into position after adjustment
Chrome pickguard

Binding is a little worse for wear, as is common for these, but it has not been repaired or refinished to remain truly original.

The signature is not sealed over, also to maintain the integrity of its stock condition!

From the Ibanez 1978 catalog:
"While we all can't have the boundless energy of Paul Stanley, we can own the same guitar he plays..."

Now's your chance!
