Noel Gallagher

You can see for the first time in the 0:22 of the video.

Noel Gallagher shows his pedalboard (new as of Oct 2016) on his Instagram. In the upper left corner is his Strymon Flint Tremolo & Reverb Pedal. The word "Strymon" appears to be covered by a sticker that reads "LOOP10."

In this video of Oasis performing the song Go Let It Out, Noel Gallagher can be seen playing a Pink Paisley Fender Telecaster Electric Guitar. The performance took place at Wembley Stadium in 2000, and was also filmed as the opening track to the Oasis live concert film "Familiar to Millions". In the video the guitar can clearly be seen at 0:08 as Noel begins playing the rhythm part of Go Let It Out. Another great shot is at 0:13, where details can be seen such as the maple neck and lack of pickguard

We can see a Pete Cornish SS-2 in this Tweet of Noel Gallagher's pedalboard. The photo was posted March 2015, and it's the pedalboard from the Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds Tour. This particular pedal is on the right side of the mic stand, in the middle.

His most notable performance in this guitar was performance of "Sad Song" on "Later...with Jools Holland" on 10th of December, 1994. Also, this guitar was seen during "Live By The Sea" performance of D'Yer Wanna Be A Spaceman and Talk Tonight. This guitar raises the question if it belonged to fellow bandmate "Bonehead", because at the same appearance he plays the same guitar.

But, unlike Gallagher, Bonehead played this one in the music video for "Whatever", as well...

In this source, Noel Gallagher is photographed playing a Non-Reversed Firebird. This photo is thought to be a promotional photo for "Some Might Say". This guitar was also seen in a music video for "Cigarettes and Alcohol". He can be seen playing it at 1:06 minute mark.

Noel was occasionally seen with Orange heads on stage. It is not known if he ever recorded with one. Also used in the music video "Stop Crying your heart out".

In an interview where Noel Gallagher talks about his guitars, gear, and his band High Flying Birds, he reveals some of the amp choices, and how he focused on trimming down and taking away from the "excesses" of the Oasis sound:

"Hmm…[long pause] Well, it is a new sound…but only from taking things away. I didn't invent anything. I just took elements…and the excesses of Oasis, like the extra guitars and the fucking…I just took 'em away. I didn't add anything; I just left the space. The new sound is me singing all the songs and there's one less guitarist.

"As far as amps and stuff, what did I use?... I used a Hiwatt Custom 100, a Blackface Fender '64 Deluxe, a 1980's Vox AC30… I'm not sure I've used any of these on Oasis records before… I can't remember!"

In a 2011 interview, when asked what guitars he's been playing on tour with High Flying Birds, the interviewer asks Noel Gallagher about his 1960s Fender Telecasters. Noel corrects him and says, "Oh, you must mean the Esquire. I played it on Dream On, The Death Of You And Me, Soldier Boys And Jesus Freaks and…Broken Arrow, as well, I think."

Purchased by Noel in spring 2004 and used in later years Oasis set up. Not currently part of his pedal board with the High Flying Birds however.

On Analogman's website, the following is stated:

"In spring 2004 Noel Gallagher from Oasis got one and is using it a lot along with his mini bicomp and DD-6 with high cut mod."

In this Instagram photo posted by Noel Gallagher, he can be seen playing a Fender Jazzmaster through a Fender '68 Custom Twin Reverb, which according to his caption is a newly acquired amp of his. He says:

New shoes. New amp. New album. There is no rest for the wicked ones.

Instagram photo posted Sept 2016. The knob configuration of the amp, along with the clearly visible "TWIN REVERB" lettering in blue identifies it as the Fender '68 Custom Twin Reverb 85W 2x12" Guitar Combo Amplifier.

In this YouTube video at 50:49, Noel Gallagher is seen using a Gibson Les Paul Custom Electric Guitar. Notably, Noel owned two Custom Les Paul guitars: one with a Florentine cutaway and another with some modifications. This guitar belonged to Johnny Marr and was used on the opening of the song “Morning Glory.”

Noel Gallagher is seen here with a WEM Dominator MKIII 15 Watt Amp behind him.

This amp was heavily used on Definitely Maybe - both recording and touring for it. In Oasis' first debut for TV, he played through this amp and some kind of Marshall combo amp.

Noel Gallagher used the Neumann U67 microphone for recording sitar parts during Oasis's 2007 sessions at Abbey Road, as shown in a BBC-sourced photo.

In this photo, Noel Gallagher can be seen playing his Telecaster with a Shubb S1 Capo.

Noel uses this guitar on most of the majority of his career. He first used it when he was in Oasis and this guitar was featured in the Stand By Me music video for Oasis. He also uses this guitar on the live performances of D'You Know What I Mean? as well as Champagne Supernova in 2008-2009

Noel Gallagher uses a Rickenbacker 330 Electric Guitar in Mapleglo finish, with a rosewood neck. In this video of Oasis performing "Who Feels Love?" live, Noel plays the rhythm guitar part on his Rickenbacker 330. The guitar can be seen throughout the video, but particularly well starting at 4:58 onwards, where the camera zooms in for a closeup, showing the two stickers Noel has placed on the guitar (a green peace sign sticker on the top horn, and a sticker of a blue circle with two bird heads facing each other with the writing "BC" in the middle on the pickguard). This performance is originally from the Oasis - Familiar to Millions: Live At Wembley concert film.

Noel Gallagher used two different Gibson Flying V guitars while in Oasis. The first was a 1989 Gibson Flying V, loaned to Noel by Johnny Marr. Noel used Marr's Flying V to specifically record Cigarettes and Alcohol and Slide Away. It was also used throughout the recording of Definitely Maybe. Photographer Michael Spencer Jones took pictures of Noel using this guitar in the studio in Jan 1994 while recording Definitely Maybe. Sound engineer David Scott, who was present at the Monnow Valley sessions is quoted in a 1994 interview with Melody Maker magazine saying he saw Noel using his Epi Les Paul and also a Gibson Flying V that he used to record Slide Away. Slide Away was the only track to make the cut from the Monnow Valley sessions. Also, Noel was inspired to write Cigarettes & Alcohol by the T Rex song "Get it on". T Rex used a Gibson Flying V to perform Get it on, so makes sense Noel was drawn to using a Flying V to record Cigarettes & Alcohol. Also, T Rex's Get it on was not entirely original either, he equally was inspired by a Chuck Berry song called "Little Queenie". Standing on the shoulders of giants is apt in this case. Noel Gallagher acquired his own 1997 Gibson Flying V and used it in the "D'You Know What I Mean?" official music video. The Flying V he's using has a black finish and a white pickguard, and a capo on the second fret.

In this promotional photo, Noel Gallagher can be seen holding a red Gibson Trini Lopez electric guitar. In an interview where he talks about his gear and guitars on his band High Flying Birds, when asked about using the Trini Lopez, Noel Gallagher says, "I haven't used the Trini Lopez on a track since Don't Believe The Truth, and the Sheraton I haven't used since Morning Glory, really." (original interview found here).

The other person in the photo is Gem Archer.

This guitar was also used during the performance of "Wonderwall", on Glastonbury 2004. He is visible playing that guitar on 0:44 minute mark.

A recent amp, used with Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds.

In this Premier Guiar interview, Gallagher said he used this amp to record "Chasing Yesterday".

"For the last 10 years I’ve used Custom Hiwatt heads, and in the studio for this record I used a great blackface Fender Deluxe."

Noel Gallagher spoke to Music Radar about recording his album "Chasing Yesterday", and mentioned using a Nash 63 Stratocaster. He says, "On this record, all over it, is a Nash ’63 Stratocaster, which is fucking outrageous, and I have a brown Nash Tele Deluxe, a ’72, which is also great."

It seems like this guitar is definitely used for "Chasing Yesterday",as Gallagher said in this Premier Guitar interview : "I’ve got two Nash guitars that might be the best Fender-style guitars I’ve ever played. One, a cream 1963 Strat, is all over the record, and the other, a ’72 Deluxe Tele, delivers an amazing sound. Whoever built these guitars is brilliant."

In an interview for Guitar World, Gallagher explained the backstory of how he got that guitar. "I had a very expensive 1963 off-white Strat stolen from me about three years ago. It was the best Strat I’d ever played. And I thought, I’m not fucking spending that much money to replace it, so I bought a Nash copy of it, and it’s the best guitar I’ve ever owned. Ever. And the Nash Tele is astonishing. I use them both all over my new record."

In this interview with Music Radar, Noel says he bought a Stratocaster from Johnny Marr in the early nineties, and used it to record one of Oasis' biggest hits, 'Don't Look Back In Anger'.

In this Tweet from Noel showing his pedalboard setup for the Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds (March 2015), we can see his SIB Blue Echodrive pedal in the left portion of his board.

In this Tweet from Noel Gallagher, we can see him using a Catalinbread Echorec. It is the yellow/orange pedal directly to the right of the mic stand (this photo was posted March 2015, and it's the pedalboard from the Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds Tour).

Noel Gallagher shows his pedalboard (new as of Oct 2016) on his Instagram. In the top row, third from the right, is his JHS / Keeley Electronics Steak and Eggs Morning Glory Overdrive and Keeley Compressor.

The signal coming out of the pedalboard looks to be going into the first Vintage channel of his Fender '68 Custom Twin Reverb Amp.

On the last who built the moon tour noel used a Page boost as main drive pedal, here’s a picture of his pedalboard.

This AC4 TV is a reissue of the classic AC4 amps from the early-1960s and is meant to capture the punch and chimey top end of the original. The circuit is wildly different than the original handwired masterpiece, but it’s still a mean little amp. You might have noticed the speaker cable hanging out of the back. The amp has been modded to have that output so you can run it into a cabinet. Cheers, to whichever of Noel’s guitar techs did that.

The first pedal in the signal chain on Noel Gallagher's pedalboard is a Keeley Compressor Plus.

Noel talks about what he likes about the compressor plus at 1:18 in this video.

Noel used this guitar for Oasis’s MTV Unplugged performance. It had a Fishman rare Earth pickup.

1:22:17 Noel Gallagher says it makes those two sounds similar when alternating between Humberker and Single Coil.
