The story of “Greeny” is shrouded in mystery, but few guitars are as illustrious. 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, it was used throughout
his time with Fleetwood Mac and 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.
The Epiphone Kirk Hammett "Greeny" Les Paul Standard is a collaboration between
Epiphone and the Gibson Custom Shop. This exceptional guitar was inspired by Kirk's
legendary original and allows players around the world the opportunity to experience
some of the magic of "Greeny" for themselves. It features premium components, including
Gibson USA Greenybucker pickups with the neck pickup reverse mounted and complete
with a reverse polarity magnet, 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 “open book” headstock. A vintage-style brown and pink
hardshell case is also included.
