Gibson's Pickup Shop has released a limited-edition Aged Greenybucker set, paying homage to the legendary Les Paul guitar that once belonged to Peter Green and later, Kirk Hammett. This set is a meticulous recreation of the pickups that made the 'Greeny' guitar so iconic, offering players a chance to capture its mystical sound. But here's where it gets controversial... While many might argue that the original pickups were irreplaceable, this set aims to replicate the specific sonic fingerprint that made the guitar famous, including the reverse magnetic polarity in the neck pickup, which creates that unmistakable, slightly hollowed 'out-of-phase' character when both pickups are engaged.
The Aged Greenybucker set is a rare convergence of history, artistry, and craft, with only 100 sets available worldwide. It's a limited opportunity to own a piece of that storied legacy. So, if you're a guitar enthusiast or a collector, head to Gibson (http://gibson.com/) to learn more and consider adding this set to your collection. But be quick, as these sets are sure to sell out fast!
