This 1998 Gibson Ace Frehley Signature Les Paul Custom in Cherry Sunburst is the player-owned instrument described, accompanied by a letter from Ace verifying his ownership. The guitar pairs a bound mahogany body with a AAA flamed maple top finished in Cherry Sunburst and an Ace-custom headstock. The set mahogany neck carries an ebony fingerboard with traditional pearl block appointments, added lightning-bolt inlays and a pearl "Ace Frehley" signature at the 12th fret. Cosmetic and build details match the signature run: bound body and headstock, chrome hardware and Grover tuners with pearl buttons.

Electrically the instrument is fitted with three DiMarzio Super Distortion humbuckers wired for high-output tones, and it uses Gibson’s ABR-1 bridge and stopbar tailpiece for classic Les Paul setup and sustain. Other production specifics tied to this run include custom Ace Frehley serial numbering and a hardshell case screened with Ace’s signature.
