Not many can stake a claim to Britpop fame like Noel Gallagher. The former Oasis guitarist and songwriter made waves in the ’90s with his slick songwriting and inspired riffage and today Epiphone commemorates those early days with this – the Noel Gallagher Riviera. Gallagher’s work with Gibson and Epiphone guitars is well known, yet his most rabid fans may recognize this guitar from the formative days of Oasis where early ’80s Rivieras were choice picks for the guitarist. This artist signature model replicates Gallagher’s own personal ’80s Riviera with many authentic historical elements present. These appointments include a SlimTaper maple neck with a volute, “E” truss rod and pickguard emblems, and two Epiphone Alnico Classic PRO humbucking pickups. Perfect for taking on the rock ‘n’ roll landscape of the ’90s to today, this Epiphone shows a fiery spirit that never lost its luster.
