Notes

Live performance, 'Shock Me' solo section, as performed on Kiss Alive II (1977). Ace Frehley used his Les Paul Deluxe into a dimed Marshall stack. Effects included an Echoplex tape delay and Mutron Octave Divider for the solo spot. No pedalboard; effects were engaged individually. No evidence of additional pedals or amp-based effects beyond those listed.

Difficulty

The solo requires advanced control of feedback, fast pentatonic licks, and unique pick-tapping technique, making it challenging for most intermediate players.
