Most legendary guitars become famous in the hands of a single player, but “Greeny” can claim three. From Peter Green to Gary Moore to Kirk Hammett, this iconic 1959 Les Paul originally made famous by the Fleetwood Mac co-founder has been regularly honored by Gibson with museum-grade replicas, capturing every nick, scratch, and dent of the original.

The guitar features a superb set of specifications common among ’59-style Les Pauls, including a warm-sounding solid mahogany body, an AAA flame maple top, a chunky late ’50s mahogany neck, and a sleek Indian rosewood fingerboard.

What sets the Kirk Hammett “Greeny” Les Paul Standard apart are its two Greenybucker pickups, with the neck pickup featuring a flipped-magnet construction. This provides you with an accurate emulation of the “magic” out-of-phase bite that has graced countless classic tracks throughout all three guitarists’ careers. After many years of offering extremely limited-run Gibson Custom creations, the Gibson Kirk Hammett “Greeny” Les Paul Standard finally delivers the legendary tone of the original instrument to the masses.
