Depending on who you believe, Peter Green's '59 Les Paul's spectacular out-of-phase sound was because either the neck pickup’s magnet was installed upside down (luthier Jol Dantzig) or its coils were rewound the wrong way (Bare Knuckle’s Tim Mills). However, Greeny’s magic was not just the pickups, but its open and airy acoustic tone that translated into a beautiful amplified sound in all positions. Gary Moore owned it for 25 years, before Kirk Hammett reportedly paid $2 million for it in 2014.
