"My August KISS Guitar of the Month is a smokin’ hot ‘56 Gibson Les Paul Custom! Used on COS, performed live for a KISS Nashville NAMM show in 1994, and photographed for a SIT String Ad when the guitar had creme pickups. Love the tone and vintage vibe of this Mahogany beast. #kisstory #kissguitar #gibsonlespaulcustom #vintageguitarmagazine #vintagegibson #lespaulcustom #blackbeauty #guitarofthemonth"
Bruce Kulick used his ESP J-Four Sunburst 1995 Bruce Kulick Signature Bass during the recording of "I Walk Alone" and in "Jungle." He chose this model for its jazz pickups, which he felt offered a more musical tone compared to other bass guitars in his collection. This information is supported by a post on Vk.
Bruce Kulick endorsed and used S.I.T. S-942 Light Power Wound Nickel Strings (9-42) during the 1980s and 1990s, as shown in a 1992 advertisement on his official website.
During a concert in Charleston on January 15, 1986, Bruce Kulick unexpectedly played a Jackson Axe Bass. After his guitar solo, the stage was momentarily empty as a prank, but Bruce quickly adapted by grabbing Gene Simmons' Jackson Axe Bass from backstage and playing a few chords seamlessly. This moment is captured in a user-uploaded photo on Kissasylum, showcasing Bruce's versatility and quick thinking.
Bruce Kulick's signature guitar picks are available with the purchase of his ESP M-1 guitar or can be found on eBay. The accompanying photo on Equipboard showcases these picks.

This month I am featuring a Black LP Special from ‘92 ,and it’s very close to the original one I owned for the HITS tour (1990). 30 years ago when the tour began and I would always open the show for “I Stole Your Love” using this model guitar. It features cream binding, and a rosewood fingerboard. I upgraded the pickups to Dimarzio’s, DP 154, and 162 DLX Plus, both great sounding mini humbuckers. I added gold bonnet knobs and pickup toggle tip add contrast. I don’t know when I sold the original, but this one is very close in features, tone and vibe. A cool sound, with the mahogany body and these unique pickups. Black finish, for KISS coolness. #dimarziopickups #gibson #lespaulspecial #hitstour #kisstory #guitarofthemonth
According to Bruce Kulick official web page: "When I joined KISS in 1984 I had a Blue Charvel, and that one was my main guitar. This was the other one. Featuring three EMG pickups, it had a nice gold sparkle finish, ebony fingerboard and a Floyd Rose bridge. What was odd was that the finish started to fade and Grover Jackson from Charvel® Guitars either got me another body or refinished the original one, I don't remember. But it just never sounded as good as I wanted after that, and eventually I sold or traded it to someone many years ago"
"Happy July 4th everyone! #flagguitar #fenderwaynekramer #independenceday #usa #patrioticguitar"
"Awesome Gibson Firebird from 2007, can be yours! Stage played, she is a great guitar! Video here No reverb.com/shop/kulicksguitaremporium"

"We also plugged in his new Line 6 bass amp that sounded very cool with that vintage Precision. I used my Gibson Elvis Dove and a Martin D-18 from 1970 for the acoustic parts, and all the other performances on the track were left intact."
