I was hoping someone would comment on why this is being called the Gary Moore Les Paul. I think Gary played a couple of other Les Pauls. On this one he broke the had stock changed some knobs and trashed the finish.

Any thoughts?

A cheap sales trick....?
Yep, Gary Moore played other Les Pauls, at least one vintage one and several custom shop Les Pauls.

This guitar is NOT Greeny. It is a new incarnation with Moore inspire mismatched knobs and a reversed pickup plate to emulate the Selmer "mistake". It did not look at all appealing and played like a modern modified Lles Paul that is selling for cheaper than their 59 reissues. It really is just a sales gimmick. If peter was asked regarding this, I think I it would be very interesting to hear his reaction.

BTW I'm not advertising, I just ran into this and really like it (however, can't afford it). There are some nice reviews on youtube as well.
