An autographed limited edition Noel Gallagher custom Live '25 Tour Gibson Les Paul Standard guitar and the lyrics for the song "Whatever" handwritten by Gallagher. In 2024, Oasis confirmed their long-awaited reunion by announcing a world tour. To celebrate the Live '25 tour, Gibson partnered with Gallagher to produce this exclusive guitar, which is based on the black Gibson Les Paul with P-90 pickups he has been using during the tour.
On 21 August 2025, Gibson released a very limited run of 25 custom Noel Gallagher Les Paul Standards, exclusively available in person only at the Gibson Garage in London. Each guitar represents one of the tracks Oasis performed during the tour, and is signed by Gallagher, who also provided a set of handwritten lyrics for each song, making it a unique package for fans and collectors. The release was highly anticipated and sold out immediately. This particular guitar is number 15 in the collection, and this is the first time a guitar from this line has come up for sale at auction.
The guitar has the serial number "NGL25 15" and comprises a mahogany neck with a rosewood fretboard, a mahogany body with an aged black Murphy Lab Light finish, and aged nickel hardware. The guitar's finish is intended to simulate natural ageing and play wear. It features a black pickguard, aged nickel P-90 pickups, Grover® tuners, two volume knobs, and two tone knobs. The back of the body is autographed by Gallagher in silver-coloured ink, and the instrument comes with a handmade leather strap.
The guitar comes in a custom hardshell case lined in blue velvet. Attached to the handle are two tags, one reading "GIB-Q163-NG" and the other labelled "15", handwritten in black pen. The lyrics included with this specific guitar are for the song "Whatever" and are penned in black ink. They are signed by Gallagher at the bottom and dated "28.12.24". The lyrics and a Gibson certificate of authenticity (featuring the guitar's serial number) come presented in a black "Gibson Custom" branded folder. Dimensions (guitar): 101 cm x 33 cm x 8 cm (39.75" x 13" x 3.25"); (case): 108 cm x 41 cm x 13.5 cm (42.5" x 16.25" x 5.25")
