About this product
Overview & specifications
The Epiphone Kirk Hammett "Greeny" 1959 Les Paul Standard pairs Gibson USA Greenybucker pickups with a Greeny Burst finish and a maple top with AAA flame maple veneer. Developed with Gibson Custom, this six-string electric includes a vintage-style hard case.
The neck pickup is reverse-mounted with reversed magnetic polarity, producing the characteristic out-of-phase sound when both pickups are selected. Two volume and two tone controls use 50s wiring, CTS potentiometers and Mallory capacitors.
