An Epiphone Signature Supernova guitar used and owned by Noel Gallagher during his time in iconic British band Oasis. This guitar was originally obtained from Gallagher's personal collection and was used for studio recordings. In 1997, Epiphone produced a Noel Gallagher signature guitar named the "Supernova," initially released in four different colours. Over the years, Supernovas have become highly collectable, and this one, owned by Gallagher himself, is truly a rare find.

This Supernova, serial number "R97E 0493", is a first-run 1997 guitar and has a semi-hollow maple sunburst-finish body with a mahogany neck and a rosewood fingerboard. "Supernova" is printed on the truss rod cover, and a printed version of Gallagher's signature adorns the scratchplate. The back of the headstock is autographed in silver-coloured ink by Gallagher.

The lot comes with an original Epiphone hardback protective case with two paper tags stamped "Bill Puplett Guitars" tied to the handle. Both tags are marked for "Jason Rhodes", Gallagher's guitar tech. There are minor marks on the body and scuffs on the case. Dimensions (guitar): 109 cm x 40.5 cm x 7 cm (43" x 16" x 2.75"); (case): 114.5 cm x 47 cm x 12.5 cm (45" x 18.5" x 5")
