I’m excited to show you my new Banana Yellow Kulick Guitar! Here’s the story behind my second Yellow Kulick/AXN M-1 guitar. It’s a tribute to my iconic 1987 ESP M-1 I used on the Crazy Nights KISS LP release, as well as many other recordings.

This Kulick guitar is created with an AXN brand body and neck. Here are the features of this boutique instrument that screams!

Alder body, lacquer paint finish, rosewood fingerboard, Floyd Rose Original Limited 1984 Tremelo system with locking arm on the sleeve. R2 Floyd Rose Nut. The humbucker chosen is called “Secret Sauce” from Carondelet pickups in Baton Rouge, LA. Very similar to my Duncan Custom on my ESP! Gotoh tuning keys in mixed black and chrome like my ESP, Dunlop Strap Locks, and Bournes 500K volume pot.

Bruce to launch unique boutique quality Limited Edition Kulick Guitars for 2025.

Bruce Kulick is launching a custom ’80s-style guitar line that pays homage to his KISS days.

With the help of AXN and local artisans, the former KISS and Grand Funk Railroad guitarist is developing a range of instruments that hark back to his Superstrat adventures.

Kulick found help from Johnny DiFatta, a California-based guitar maker whose AXN Guitars is based on small-batch quality. “I manufacture a few guitars a year,” DiFatta says. “AXN will continue to be concerned more about uniqueness and individuality instead of quantity and high production.”

To date, he’s helped craft reproductions of Kulick’s well-loved banana ESP M-1, and an M-1–style guitar featuring the player’s likeness from the cover of 1985 Kiss album Asylum. The instruments feature Kulick’s name on the headstock.

“My guitars are an evolution,” DiFatta asserts. “AXN is the culmination of all the best things that have come from the history of handmade guitars. That’s why I call my them ‘luthier-grade’ guitars.”

Kulick hopes to develop a line of boutique instruments. “These guitars should be played, not just hung on a wall,” he says. “I’d like to offer some of the paint designs I created during my Kiss years. It will be an evolving endeavor that I’m compelled to explore.”
