    Very nice. I’d imagine an Epiphone would be a big seller, but then I suppose Oasis fans are in their 40s these days though and might be happy to pay Gibson money.

    Pretty iconic guitar for those of us of a certain age. 

    Though he’s rarely been seen without a D28 in recent years...

    Seems like a good call. Suppose he'd have trouble getting sponsorship from Antoria.

    I think the Antoria was only ever seen in the Wonderwall video.

    ^ True, but I'm still sore at the little shit for disproportionally hiking the prices of a guitar that I have been trying to get a good early example of for years  ;)

    Guitar shop owners everywhere are dreading getting these into stock in tandem with the reopening of retail I’d imagine. They may as well just leave the capo on the 2nd fret while it hangs on the peg.

    I've always thought Wonderwall sounds better in Em!

    I don't get it - he plays standard unmodified acoustics, and his playing is very average cowboy chord stuff.

    Gibson get increased sales associated with a major artist's name, the artist gets a nice kickback for each guitar sold.

    Endorsements are becoming an increasing source of income for artists, what with recorded music delivering very little revenue and live music currently non-existent.

    They are a business, he has a big fan base, they will make money.

    The Epiphone Union Jack Sheratons that didn’t even have an endorsement are going for silly money on eBay these days.

    Here we go again... another NG thread that descends into slagging off his playing.

    You've been here before right?  This, depressingly, happens with any thread about any guitarist. Does my head in.

    But you did just do the same in the Dave Simpson thread so ... ;)

    The J150 is pretty rare, no? So there's that. Plus what others said, pretty iconic to many people. He's no virtuoso, but something he has got a talent for which most don't, he's a great all round songwriter.

    My assumption is that it will be ridiculously expensive though, as per all of Gibsons output these days. So thats me out!

    And his songwriting is among some of the all time greats of his era. 

    Far more interesting than yet another Bonamassa Les Paul...

    I bet nearly every single one is sold to a pro footballer. 

    Noel Gallagher represents the sort of narrow minded tribalism I loathe in both music and life. I don’t care if he’s more successful than I am. He’s not someone I’d ever care to emulate.

    No idea if legit, but somebody in the YouTube comments claims to have preordered from a UK shop at £3799.

    If thats true then the price gets a big lol from me.

    Sounds like a lot but I'm not really familiar with Gibson acoustics. Quick search shows an SJ200 for £3700 so maybe not?
    Either way, it's more than I'll ever afford!

    Maybe the addidas sticker that comes with it is specially aged by the Murphy Lab. Sure to send the price waaaay up.

    Not at all, I just loathe that era of music. Not so much Oasis even, but all the awful acolytes and soundalike bands that happened shortly afterwards. I remember in 1997 selling an amp to a guy from a Camden type scenester band and he even put on a Mancunian accent while he was trying it out. I was speechless.

    Besides why can’t I be close minded about one of the most closed minded people in music? Surely I’m just practicing what he preaches? Or have none of you ever read an interview with him?

    This just in.....some people like Noel Gallagher, some don't.

    I wonder if Liam will get a signature microphone and stand ?
    I like Oasis and both brothers output.
    Just wish they could get someone like Steven Wilson to remaster the Oasis albums .

    The internet rarely fails to amuse me these days. Folk getting butt hurt over “relics” and Noel Gallagher. Entertaining to read, quite sad though. 

    For 3-4 years Oasis were untouchable which was unfortunately while Noel was engrossed in his cocaine addiction which accentuated his arrogance. However, he’s always been more interested in his songwriting than the guitar he is playing which you don’t get much these days.  I watch every interview with him and I don’t mind him saying how big Oasis were or his style of humour directed at other musicians. It’s just part of what makes him, him.

    New artists are scrambling over gear endorsements to elevate their position of superiority amongst youtube subs which is a shame. Noel has only put his name to one other piece of gear in nearly 30 years of being in the business. 

    I think he’s allowed this. Looks like a nice guitar too.
