Here’s the essential kit, gear and set-up you need to sound like peak Gallagher brothers
Want to live the Oasis dream by playing stadiums, headlining festivals and writing some of the best songs of your generation? It takes more than a parka jacket and a healthy supply of bravado. You need the right guitars, amps, pedals and add-ons to make it happen. Little by little, you too can sound supersonic. See below for our essential guide on the band’s best gear.
First, invest in a classic guitar model
Throughout his career, Noel Gallagher has mostly stayed true to the same trusty kit. Since the Oasis days, he’s relied on a Gibson 1993 Nashville Series Epiphone Sheraton, best known for being emblazoned with a Union Jack flag. He’s made countless customisations – fitting a Frequensator tailpiece, adding mini-humbuckers. But on its own, the Epiphone is great model for beginners.
That said, Noel’s upgraded since focusing on his Flying Birds solo work. Today he plays the Gibson 1960 ES-355, a model he calls the “greatest guitar I’ve ever played.” He once showed Smiths guitar whizz Johnny Marr his ES-355, and Marr “looked like a startled wizard because of how great the guitar is.” He really, really loves this guitar. Maybe too much. He once told Premier Guitar: “I’m in awe of the guitar. I put it second to my wife only because I can have sex with her. If I could have sex with that guitar, I’m not sure which I’d choose.”
Feeling flash?
Spend a casual four grand on Noel’s favourite guitar of all time, the ES-355.
