We show that each general Haar system is permutatively equivalent in L p ([0, 1]), 1 < p < ∞, to a subsequence of the classical (i.e. dyadic) Haar system. As a consequence, each general Haar system is a greedy basis in L p ([0, 1]), 1 < p < ∞. In addition, we give an example of a general Haar system whose tensor products are greedy bases in each L p ([0, 1] d ), 1 < p < ∞, d ∈ N. This is in contrast to [11] , where it has been shown that the tensor products of the dyadic Haar system are not

... dy bases in L p ([0, 1] d ) for 1 < p < ∞, p = 2 and d ≥ 2. We also note that the above-mentioned general Haar system is not permutatively equivalent to the whole dyadic Haar system in any L p ([0, 1]), 1 < p < ∞, p = 2.
