Gene Simmons' Awesome Stage-Used Personal Axe Bass Guitar :: Concert Used & Signed by the God of Thunder Himself!Offered here is a spectacular item for the KISS fan—a Gene Simmons stage-used, signed, and extensively documented “Blood Axe Bass.” KISS co-founder Gene Simmons is known for his exceptional bass playing. During their live concerts, Gene performs a bass solo to their iconic tune, “God of Thunder,” where he plays his “Axe Bass” and spits blood all over it—quite the memorable spectacle.
This impressive lot is comprised of an actual “Axe Bass”—known as his “Blood Axe Bass”—that Gene used during KISS’s live performance on 9/9/2021 in Irvine, California. Simmons signed the piece and wrote on the bass, “My Stage Played Blood Axe Bass, Irvine, CA 9/9/21.” Also present here are pictures of Gene playing the Bass, signing the Bass, and holding the Bass. We have embedded a video in the listing of Gene playing and spitting blood on the bass. In addition to the stage-used Bass, the winner will also receive Gene’s custom hard shell case, which he has signed on the outside, and there is a signed letter of authenticity by Gene for the Bass. An exceptional stage-used item with fantastic provenance from one of the most iconic front men in Rock and Roll history.
