Noel Gallagher, guitarist for Oasis worked closely with Epiphone engineers to perfect his Signature Model. Noel originally had a Union Jack flag custom painted on his Epiphone Sheraton. This led to the official Noel Gallagher Union Jack SuperNova model, complete with all the same great features of the SuperNova but now with the distinctive red, white and blue British flag.
EPIPHONE NOEL GALLAGHER SUPERNOVAThe Epiphone NOEL GALLAGHER SUPERNOVA was introduced in 1997 and made until 2005. The Supernova was originally available in Ebony, Cherry, Metallic Light Blue (Manchester City Blue), and Vintage Sunburst finishes. Noel Gallagher’s own modded/original “Union Jack” Epiphone Sheraton had a frequensator tailpiece and mini-humbuckers but his Epiphone signature model had a regular Tune-o-matic tailpiece and full-size Epiphone humbuckers (like later stock Sheratons). | |
