Overview
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.
Check out Kirk Hammett's signature "Greeny" Standard in our exclusive demo:
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 revered magnetic polarity. The Kirk Hammett "Greeny" Les Paul Standard was inspired by this legendary guitar and gives players around the world the opportunity to experience some of the magic of "Greeny" for themselves. An Original hardshell case is included.

"Awesome guitar"
Verified Customer

Purchased "Greeny"from Zzounds and could not be happier with the guitar and the customer service I received. I have had a few Les Pauls and own a USA/ESP Eclipse. This guitar is right up there with the best of them. The top and finish are great and the tones out of the Greenybucker pick ups are very nice. Working the tone and volume knobs give you a variety of sounds. Came nicely set up just took a bit of adjusting to get just the way I like it. The case is also top notch. Definitely recommend.
Musical Background:
30+ years playing in both original and cover bands
Musical Style:
Rock, blues and classic metal
