Description
A pinnacle of '90s alternative rock, Oasis changed the face of modern music with their emotive lyrics and infectious riffs. Their lead guitarist Noel Gallagher was often seen sporting a cherry red Gibson ES-355, and this Custom Shop 1960 ES-355 pays tribute to the legendary player.
This Noel Gallagher ES-355 is part of an extremely limited run of only 200 units, making it an incredibly rare piece - and it exudes quality in every facet of design. Professionally aged by the Murphy Lab, this axe has the look and feel of a well-loved vintage Gibson. It also features numerous vintage-correct appointments, including a multi-ply bound maple body, a mahogany neck, and an ebony fretboard, all of which create an impeccable playing experience.
Players will love its Custombucker pickups that churn out a powerful, full-bodied tone with deep lows, snarling mids, and articulate highs. Whether you're shredding away on blistering lead lines or slick rhythm riffs, this guitar sounds fantastic. These pickups are wired to CTS volume and tone pots, a Mono Varitone switch with two chokes, and a hand-wired harness with Black Cat caps, all of which contribute to their even and consistent sound.
Complete with a reproduced handwritten lyric sheet, a hand-signed Certificate of Authenticity, and a custom Bear Strap that looks exactly like Noel's, this Custom Shop Noel Gallagher 1960 ES-355 is a top-notch guitar that's perfect for Oasis fans and collectors alike.
