Just hours after Gibson unveiled the Noel Gallagher Les Paul Standard, a production line US-built version of the Oasis icon’s P-90 equipped Custom Shop model – y’know, the most talked about guitar of 2025 – Epiphone anted up with signature guitars for Gallagher’s six-string lieutenants, Paul “Bonehead” Arthurs and Gem Archer.
Longtime Oasis fans will recognise Bonehead’s Riviera. Finished in Dark Tobacco Sunburst, with that ‘burst beautifully applied to the neck, this Epiphone guitar is a replica of his mid ‘80s semi-hollow that Bonehead wielded in the early days. He tracked their debut album Definitely Maybe with it. He toured with it. And the Riviera survived all the way to this day.
