Owner of an Audient iD22 audio interface and the eight-channel mic pre ASP800, along with a selection of speakers and an eclectic mix of secondhand kit found on eBay, Coxon confirms that he has made sure that he’s got enough channels and the right gear “to record things cleanly or to muddy things up,” while at the same time being able to experiment with any one of his many acoustic guitars.
Graham’s guitar collection includes this Yamaha LS26 small-bodied acoustic. Since being turned on to Yamaha acoustics by Bert Jansch, he has also acquired a vintage FG1500 and an LL11 (as played by Bert).
In this video from Fender, Graham Coxon discusses his impressions and use of the Acoustasonic Telecaster while demoing the guitar through a Fender Bassbreaker 15 amp.
Coxon occasionally uses a Harmony Sovereign acoustic guitar, model unknown, which he bought around 1999.

"I was standing (which I would never do now), and as I started the first song I felt my knees turning to rubber, and my already weak voice took on an involuntary and very embarrassing vibrato. I was shaking and sweating and really struggling with my old Harmony Sovereign guitar and its tree-trunk strings. It was awful."

"More recent purchases include a Harmony Sovereign, an American acoustic from the 60's, the choice of many old blues and roots guitarists which Graham used on his solo album."
In this photo, which shows Coxon showing his Tele, the Boss TU-2 tuner pedal is visible.
