Gibson Kirk Hammett Greenybucker Pickup Set, Nickel

The Gibson Patent Applied For humbucker pickups from the 1950s are often hailed as the “holy grail” of vintage electric guitar tones. Among these, the signature set found in the iconic “Greeny” Les Paul stands out as legendary. The new Greenybucker set delivers that instantly recognizable sound, partly thanks to the out-of-phase middle position caused by the neck pickup’s reverse magnetic polarity. Crafted with Kirk Hammett’s input and matching the original specs — including asymmetrical coil windings and raw Alnico 2 magnets — this set brings classic mojo straight to your guitar.
