Crafted in close collaboration with Metallica's Kirk Hammett and the Gibson Custom Shop, this instrument faithfully recreates the iconic look, feel, and out-of-phase voice of the original 1959 Les Paul once owned by Peter Green, Gary Moore, and now Kirk Hammett.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe guitar is built around a resonant mahogany body topped with a solid maple cap and an exquisite AAA flame maple veneer, framed by single-ply cream binding and finished in an authentic Aged Gloss Greeny Burst. It features the famous Gibson \"Open Book\" headstock profile adorned with a Mother of Pearl modern Epiphone logo. Its one-piece mahogany neck is joined via a deep, vintage-correct long tenon set-neck joint and carved to a custom \"Greeny\" neck profile. Topped with a 12\" radius Indian Laurel fingerboard, Mother of Pearl trapezoid inlays, Graph Tech nut, and 22 medium jumbo frets across a classic 24.75\" scale length, it delivers an effortless vintage playing experience.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSonically, this model is loaded with USA-made Gibson Greenybucker pickups. The neck pickup is reverse-mounted with reversed magnetic polarity, unlocking that iconic, hollow out-of-phase middle position tone that made the original \"Greeny\" famous. The hand-wired electronics feature 50s-style wiring with premium CTS potentiometers, Mallory capacitors, and a Switchcraft 3-way toggle switch and output jack.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHardware appointments include an Epiphone Tune-O-Matic bridge, LockTone Stop Bar tailpiece, and nickel Grover Rotomatic tuners with spade buttons for vintage aesthetic and rock-solid tuning performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition:\u003c\/b\u003e This is a used Epiphone Kirk Hammett \"Greeny\" 1959 Les Paul Standard in Greeny Burst in excellent condition.
