Noel Gallagher Guitars

9th March

In May 1995 Noel Gallagher and his band Oasis recorded what was to be one of their biggest selling singles in America and the UK, Wonderwall The song is a modern day popular anthem, a real sing-a-long love song for the masses. The simplicity of the opening guitar riff uses the chord sequence Em7 to G, it is one of the most instantly recognized opening chord sequences to be produced in the last fifteen years on a acoustic Sunburst electric guitar.

I think one of the main reasons why Wonderwall instantly attaches itself to your heart strings is the power and emotion of the sound produced by the acoustic guitar. Noel Gallagher used an acoustic guitar to write the song Wonderwall and continues to perform the song live with his trusted acoustic guitar.

The guitar Noel uses for this is a Vintage Tobacco acoustic Gibson J-200 Sunburst electric guitar. The emotion contained in Wonderwall is brought to life by the Sunburst acoustic Gibson which produces the most powerful yet clear acoustic sound ever created.

When this Sunburst acoustic was originally produced in 1937 it was called the Super Jumbo 200 and got its name changed in the 1947. Noel Gallagher has made the Gibson J-200 one of his primary acoustic guitars, with its warm beautiful tonal quality and its vintage Tobacco Sunburst finish.

Hardly surprising when you consider one of his own musical inspirations, Pete Townshend of The Who used the same model acoustic Gibson J-200 Sunburst electric guitar in the opening chord sequence for the classic rock opera Tommy track, Pinball Wizard back in 1969. This Sunburst acoustic helped define Townshend’s style of attacking acoustic percussive power rhythm sound. The acoustic guitar has a distinct sound quality that is really very unique especially when it is used for playing power chords and strummed rhythms.

More than seventy years later and the Gibson J-200 Sunburst acoustic is still the most famous acoustic guitar and a popular legend in its own right.

Here are some well known guitarists that have enjoyed the classic qualities and sound of the acoustic Gibson J-200 Sunburst electric guitar: Elvis Presley, Bob Dylan, Buddy Holly, Jeff Beck, George Harrison, John Lennon, Neil Young, Pete Townshend, The Edge, Noel Gallagher, Paul Weller, Sheryl Crow, Chris Isaak, Jimmy page, Emmylou Harris and Bryan Adams.
