They both sound fantastic. I think the Kirk Hammett one just has the edge for me but, they both sound beautiful. The Hammett one sounds more like Peter, The Gary one sounds more like Gary!
The newest one had alot more attention put on replicating the pickups with collectors choice one they just took a set of Burstbuckers and flipped the neck pickup magnet with the new versions they actually reverse engineered the PAfs and copied the specs. The new one actually has pickups that are clones of the originals while the Burstbuckers are just a general approximation of a average PAF set and not clones of any specific example of any vintage PAF set . 57 classics Burstbuckers and custombuckers are all just general approximations of average vintage PAFs . Gibson does not normally go this far with pickups when cloning guitars . This new version of greeny and the replica of Jimny pages Number 1 are the only 2 times where they actually cloned specific examples of vintage pickups. In every other case when the copies old les Paul's they would just use custombuckers Burstbuckers or 57 classics or would do mixtures of those Sets . I have to say these new Greenie buckers sound fantastic and I hope gibson will Eventually sell them through their Pickup shop . They sound like I could get some serious Jimmy page tones out of them .
Really excellent playing. This is how these guitars should be put through their paces. So many "reviews" of these miss the point of the pickups completely by only playing in a metal style or with so much distortion you can't hear what the flipped magnet actually does when the pickups are combined. Some even skip combining the pickups altogether. Nicely done. Thank you.
Great comparison. FWIW- SGTB was recorded with "Stripe" not the greeny burst (and IMO, a better sounding guitar- Gary's best burst). In this comparison, I think I prefer the slightly warmer tones of the CC1, however the pickups on the new one are more "alive".
I believe the pickups in collectors choice were wax potted while the new Greeny buckers are unpotted which would add to a more immediate attack and add more pop to the notes
I liked the clarity of the kh greeny on clean, the gm was too warm or dark i guess. In the overdrive section i really liked the warm dark sound of the gm it sounded more "vintage" but i still dig the modern sound of the kh. I would want 2 les pauls w those sounds. I go w the kh greeny
Great playing. My relationship with the sound of this guitar has always been through Gary Moore. It's difficult to compare the two because changes in pickup configuration between the same recordings distort things. Based upon the 'Still Got the Blues' segment, I actually prefer the sound of the CC#1 over the MurphyLabs even though the CC guitar probably only came with Custom-Shop BB pickups. But it's so close as to mean nothing. I also own a Murphy Labs guitar which is going nowhere, and there's no way that I would pay this crazy money for either of these guitars which seem to be hyped and overpriced to cover endorsement. Kirk must have recovered the price he paid for Greeny from his cut from all of the various shades of Grey coming out of Gibson at the moment.
Relic is someone else putting dings, dents, and scratches on a perfect guitar so you don't have to. You only pay a couple of thousand for that privledge. As for the sound....well, that's mostly what your amp will sound like with proper settings. You can make a 500 dollar guitar sound almost as good for 1/20th of the price.
That was some incredible playing! Let's be honest about these guitars though. If money was no object (but it is sadly), that Murphy Lab "Greeny" would on its way to my house. On the other hand, in a blindfold test, most amateur guitarists couldn't tell the difference between each of these guitars. And if they could, they couldn't tell which guitar was "Greeny". We hear with our eyes in these kinds of demos, and that Murphy Lab guitar has it all in spades. Would you give your left nut to have a "Greeny" guitar?
No soy fanático de Kirk Hammett y si soy muy fan de Gary Moore de hecho es uno de mis guitarristas preferidos. Pero en este Review me gustó mucho más la guitarra de Hammett, tiene más graves y resonancia, más medios con cuerpo y aguados brillantes pero redondos y la Gary Moore suena algo delgado sus agudos y con menos médios al igual que menos resonancia. Aún así las dos tienen un tono muy lindo.
La greeny Hammett usa unas pastillas que son clones exactos de la greeny. La greeny Gary Moore del 2010 usaba unas bursbucker pro con la pastilla del puente invertida por eso quizas la 2010 no te suene tan identica a la greeny original. Sin duda las dos guitarras son grandiosas pero el trabajo con la greeny Hammett (me caga Hammett) es espectacular.
Well, for me this video was a waste of time. I saw many fairly similar pictures of Les Paul guitars while listening to presumably them being played but had little idea which was which.
One of the best les paul videos on youtube
The tone of the 2022 is literally perfect.
They both sound fantastic. I think the Kirk Hammett one just has the edge for me but, they both sound beautiful. The Hammett one sounds more like Peter, The Gary one sounds more like Gary!

@@adamwatson6916 they will but it’ll be yrs from now just like custombuckers are a decade old and just came to buy form Gibson outside a guitar
@@alecse5478 I'm well aware that both Peter and Gary owned Greenie. 😉

I’m watching this video in repeat, so cool, nice music and amazing guitar! Thanks my friend, cheers from Brazil
You're playing is amazing!
Great guitars, awesome performance!!
They both sound and look stunning. I’d be very happy with either.
I’m surprised by the screaming tone at 7:10

I think if the produced a Stripe replica I’d have to some how find the money for one. Absolutely love that guitar.

Thought just the same. Hammett's got brighter, more articulated cleans but GM wins on the drives. Warmer, more balanced, smoother drive.
The cc#1 sounds for me the best of the 2. The Kirk sounds a bit more modern..

sweet guitars guys!
they both sounded sweet to me!
Beautiful playing!

You realize the middle position is out of phase?
Prefer the "Gary". Slightly warmer sound
Fabulous

Nice, "I done ran into my baby,...And finally found my old blue jean.."
Why does CC have an amber switch tip, I wonder?
Probably when the did the first it still had the original and when the did the later the tip had been replaced
CC1 burst buckets are way too muddy. Clean sounds good. A little dirt it goes to shit
I'm kinda getting distracted by how well you're playing😅

I would take Gary's one...
Mojo galore
Can we please just call it the Greeny? I don't care that Hammet now owns the guitar.
The CC1 is more Rock n Roll.
confusing to tell them apart without some kind of signage or words
The chapters identify which guitar is being played. It's in both the video description and on the screen/playback bar.
It’s the player. Doesn’t sound much different. All you need is a good amp. Guitar is nill
You are all crazy! Every guitar is different. And no one is an replacement for Gary Moore .
Well, for me this video was a waste of time. I saw many fairly similar pictures of Les Paul guitars while listening to presumably them being played but had little idea which was which.
The timestamp say which is being played.
Liberal Hivemind ?
It's Garys guitar
Такая гитара должна быть у Joe bonamassa !а не у рукожопого хэммета!!!
