Oasis guitarist Noel Gallagher's enigmatic Les Paul guitar seems poised for a unique, personalized model launch.
In an exciting development for music enthusiasts, Noel Gallagher's signature Gibson Les Paul guitar is set to be released as a very limited edition run of 25 guitars by Gibson Custom. This ultra-exclusive offering will be available exclusively through the Gibson Garage London on August 21, 2025 [1][2][3].
This special release replicates the custom black Les Paul Standard used by Gallagher during the Oasis Live '25 reunion tour. The guitar features Murphy Lab light aging, P-90 pickups, a 60s slim neck profile, and includes handwritten Oasis lyrics by Noel himself on each instrument [1][2].
Unlike a standard production run, this limited edition is designed to be highly collectible, with only 25 units available worldwide, each hand-signed by Noel Gallagher [1][3]. Each guitar comes with a handmade “Bear” guitar strap and an exclusive custom guitar case [1]. Additionally, each instrument includes handwritten lyrics from classic Oasis tracks performed on the Live '25 tour, adding uniqueness to each guitar [1].
The guitar is equipped with nickel-covered P-90 pickups instead of traditional humbuckers, embodying Gallagher's preferred setup during the reunion shows [2][3]. The limited edition Les Paul also underwent Murphy Lab relic work to simulate decades of wear and vintage character [1][2].
Recent reports suggest that Noel Gallagher has been embracing guitar solos on the latest run of Oasis shows, hinting at a renewed passion for his craft [4]. However, the specific details about the pedalboard equipment currently used by Noel Gallagher remain undisclosed [5].
The announcement has caused excitement among fans, with the Instagram post showing Noel Gallagher signing the back of a black, aged Les Paul suggesting a potential release of the signature guitar [6]. It's worth noting that this guitar shown in the post doesn't appear to be as heavily aged as the one Noel Gallagher has been using in UK stadiums, hinting at a possible standard production run or an ultra-exclusive Murphy Lab drop [7].
In a previous event, Noel Gallagher bought one of Peter Green's Les Pauls from the store owner, but he erased Peter Green's signature on the guitar [8]. The current status of the Les Paul Noel Gallagher bought from the store owner remains unknown [9].
