The story of “Greeny” is shrouded in mystery, but few guitars are as illustrious. First owned by Peter Green during his groundbreaking tenure with Fleetwood Mac, it was later sold to Gary Moore, who used it for nearly three decades in Thin Lizzy and beyond. Now owned by Kirk Hammett, Greeny has passed through the hands of three legendary guitarists—each who's left their mark on rock history. Gibson now extends that legacy to all players with the Kirk Hammett “Greeny” Les Paul Standard—a faithful homage to a guitar that has shaped multiple generations of rock and blues.

The Kirk Hammett “Greeny” Les Paul Standard is built upon staples of the Les Paul Standard lineage. Its mahogany body and satin-finished AAA figured maple top exude classic Gibson elegance, delivering the warmth and sustain that have made the Les Paul legendary. Meanwhile, a 50s Vintage neck profile strikes the perfect balance between comfort and substance, making it ideal for everything from bluesy bends to furious rock riffage. But that’s where the similarities end. Hidden beneath these familiar features lies the secret to Greeny’s legendary voice.

At the heart of its tone are specially wound Greenybucker pickups—complete with the reverse-mounted, reverse-polarity neck pickup that replicates Greeny’s legendary out-of-phase quality. Hand-wired controls featuring Orange Drop® capacitors in the tone circuit provide a smooth, natural roll-off that lets you transition effortlessly from smoky cleans to snarling overdrive. The ABR-1 Tune-O-Matic™ bridge, aluminum Stop Bar tailpiece, and Grover® Rotomatics tuners work in harmony to maximize sustain and resonance—perfect for bringing out the subtle nuances in every note.

From Peter Green’s soulful phrasing to Gary Moore’s fiery leads and Kirk Hammett’s face-melting leads, Greeny has left an indelible stamp on guitar history. Now, the Kirk Hammett “Greeny” Les Paul Standard invites you to be part of that story—complete with a premium Original Series hardshell case to protect your next chapter in this remarkable legacy.
