Kickshoot; reversing the neck pickup will have little effect, other than looks. For out-of-phase sounds you have several options. Wiring out-of-phase should get you close, but beware as not all wirings will work by just reversing the leads.

You can also ( As I did) open up the neck pickup and flip the magnet. If you are not used to making modifications to your guitar, I suggest to have this done by a guitar-tech.
Several pickup makers offer a Peter Green set (WCR, Seymour Duncan) with correct wiring instructions.

I would also suggest becoming a member at the Les Paul Forum ( www.lespaulforum.com ). If you do a search there on "Green" , you will find loads of info regarding Peter Green, his gear, his guitar and getting that out-of-phase tone. Good luck!
