Gibson [Lightweight] Kirk Hammett “Greeny” Les Paul Standard, Greeny Burst

The legendary instrument “Greeny” used by three legendary guitarists Peter Green, Gary Moore, and Kirk Hammett is a must-have for fans, but Gary Moore’s use is probably the most famous. It is produced as a regular product in the USA, but the pickup is a specially developed “Greenybucker”, and the front pickup is reverse mounted.

Description

This specification, which can be said to be a trademark such as the control knob, switch washer, and reverse pickup, is faithfully reproduced.

According to the manufacturer’s site,
The story of “Greeny” is very mysterious, but
there are few guitars with such a glorious story. “Greeny” is one of the most iconic original series Les Paul Standards ever made
, and in addition to the guitar’s popularity, it is also characterized by its truly unique sound.

Formerly owned by Peter Green (Fleetwood Mac), it was later sold to Gary Moore
, who used it for 30 years as Thin Lizzy and as a solo artist. Now owned by Kirk Hammett
, the “Greeny” has been in the hands of three legendary guitarists and continues to be played by them.

Its distinctive sound is due to the inverted magnet in the neck pickup,
which creates a phase sound when the toggle switch is in the center position.

Inspired by this legendary guitar, the Kirk Hammett “Greeny” Les Paul Standard offers players around the world
the opportunity to experience the “Greeny” magic.
Comes with an original series hardshell case.

The faded (satin) finish gives the wood unevenness in various places, and the paint surface is very thin, allowing the body’s sound to be fully utilized. Another feature
of this finish is that the paint is easily worn off by friction with use, so the more you use it, the faster the character will come out!
