After years of speculation, whispers, and wild fan theories, Oasis finally came back to rock stadiums across the world with their Live ’25 Tour – a biblical return for one of Britpop’s defining bands.
To mark the occasion, Noel Gallagher has joined forces with Gibson on a limited-edition signature guitar: the Noel Gallagher Les Paul™ Standard.
Designed by Gallagher himself, the guitar captures the sound, look, and spirit of the ’90s while delivering the precision and craftsmanship expected from Gibson today. It’s available for a limited time at Gibson.com, select Gibson Garage locations in London and Nashville, and authorized dealers worldwide.
“This guitar is simply too iconic and cool not to be released more widely and made available for more fans to get their hands on,” says Lee Bartram, Head of Commercial and Marketing EMEA at Gibson. “Noel’s original Gibson Custom version of this Les Paul™ was the first guitar he played during the biggest rock ’n’ roll reunion of the 21st century. This Gibson USA version embraces that legacy, capturing a historic moment in British and global live music.”
The Noel Gallagher Les Paul™ Standard is designed to deliver the classic Les Paul™ feel and tone that helped define Oasis’s sound. Its solid mahogany body with a maple top gives it rich, resonant tones, while the mahogany neck, shaped to Gallagher’s SlimTaper™ preference, makes it comfortable to play across the fretboard. The rosewood fingerboard with 22 medium jumbo frets and classic trapezoid inlays completes its iconic look.
All the hardware is built for reliability and performance. A Tune-O-Matic bridge and Stop Bar tailpiece keep the guitar in tune and help sustain notes, while smooth-turning Grover® tuners make string changes simple. The black five-ply pickguard adds a subtle nod to Les Paul™ Custom models.
Its electronics provide the punchy, gritty sound Noel is known for. Hand-wired P-90 Soapbar pickups give character and bite, with separate volume and tone controls for each pickup and a three-way selector to switch between them. Black Top Hat knobs with silver markers complete the setup, and a signature decal on the back of the headstock marks it as an official Noel Gallagher design.
The guitar comes in a sturdy hardshell case, ready for rehearsals, gigs, or stadium stages. Perfectly suited to capture the energy of the Live ’25 Tour, it’s a playable piece of rock history—and you’ll definitely maybe want to order this one now so you won’t be looking back in anger once it’s sold out.
