A Rickenbacker Fireglo bass guitar used, owned and autographed by Noel Gallagher during his time in Oasis. This guitar was originally obtained from Gallagher's personal collection and was used in the studio for recording purposes. Although recognised primarily as the band's lead guitarist, Gallagher is a talented multi-instrumentalist. He is an accomplished drummer and often laid down bass tracks during album recordings.

This Rickenbacker Fireglo bass can be seen being played by Gem Archer alongside a seated Liam Gallagher in a photograph taken in Abbey Road Studios during the recording of Oasis' seventh and final album, Dig Out Your Soul. It can also be seen in a photo of Gallagher's guitar rack at Wheeler End Studios, taken by James Slater.

This 2001 Rickenbacker 4001 guitar comprises a maple neck featuring a rosewood fingerboard with dot inlays, and a maple body displaying a Fireglo finish. The serial number "01 15667" is engraved on the jack plate, and the back of the headstock is autographed in silver-coloured ink by Gallagher. The instrument retains Gallagher's original strings and features one of his Schaller strap locks. It comes in a protective Rickenbacker hard case labelled "Ricky 4001 Bass, New FireGlo, NG". The body exhibits several scuffs to the finish and signs of lacquer checking. The metal components display notable marks. Dimensions (guitar): 114 cm x 34 cm x 6 cm (44.75" x 13.25" x 2.25"); (case): 122.5 cm x 43 cm x 12 cm (48.25" x 17" x 4.75")
