I grew up listening to Ace, so his tone and style are like home for me.

Bob also recorded with Kiss later on, I guess when Ace was on his way out.

PS: I thought the same thing about Ace and Ariel. Being the Anglophiles they were, I’m sure Ace’s inspiration for his “stutter guitar playing” helped him win the audition with Paul and Gene. They had actually already settled for Bob Kulick when Ace stumbled in as the last guy they auditioned.

Interesting point.  I wonder how different their music and success would've been with Bob instead of Ace from the beginning.  I know Bob played with them later on.

Curious what tonal range his Thunderbird pickup hits.

Got it!  Thanks so much.  I'd love to have been in the room when they decided to go this route with the Thunderbird pickups.  I guess the goal was a more "modern" sound than alnico gives.  I like the TB+ a lot, but the construction seems way less elegant than the alnico ones.

The bass player here is Paul Turner from Jamiroquai.

Is it not possible for the ceramic magnet to be a blade?

Thanks a lot.  This puts a lot in perspective.  As far as the difference in depth between the ceramic and alnico, is alnico just smaller?  Why does the ceramic have to be so chunky?
