Epiphone Kirk Hammett Greeny 1959 Les Paul Standard

 The legendary tale of the guitar “Greeny” is shrouded in mystery, but few guitars have such a history! Greeny is one of the most iconic original Les Paul Standards ever made, with a unique sound as recognizable as the guitar itself.

Previously owned by Peter Green, the founder of Fleetwood Mac, it was used throughout his time with the band. The guitar was later sold to Gary Moore, who used it for three decades with Thin Lizzy and as a solo artist. Now owned by Kirk Hammett, Greeny has passed through the hands of three legendary guitarists. Its distinctive sound is partly from the out-of-phase middle switch position due to the neck pickup’s reversed magnetic polarity.

This exceptional guitar was inspired by Kirk’s legendary original. The guitar is built with premium components. It features a Switchcraft pickup selector and 1/4″ output jack, CTS potentiometers, Mallory capacitors, and Grover Rotomatic tuners with spade-style buttons on a Gibson-style “openbook” headstock.
