Metallica’s Kirk Hammett is teaming with Gibson for a new guitar.
The Gibson 1989 Kirk Hammett Les Paul Custom is now available worldwide at authorized, premium Gibson Custom Shop dealers and at Gibson.com.
Hammett told fans, “This black 1989 Les Paul Custom is actually the first Les Paul I ever played live on stage and on tour. I got it when we were on the ‘And Justice For All’ tour, specifically for ‘Fade To Black’ because I really wanted that big, fat, creamy Les Paul sound for the intro. It’s a very dependable and reliable guitar, and I’ve used it for decades. I hope you all will enjoy it as much as I did!”
