    Hi all. The make of the guitar is in the video at 01:46, it's a Takamine FP460SC with a retro-fitted Mimesis pickup.
    Cheers, JH

      Really enjoyed that.. i always wondered about that guitar
      After seeing it on the 1996 MTV acoustic unplugged gig.
      Never did i know it was just to record them classics.

      Noel played 2 of these at Knebworth. That was 10/11 August. He then played one of them on MTV Unplugged on 23 August by which time it had acquired the soundhole pickup.

      Hi James, thanks for all the great videos!Noel had 2 of those Takamine FP460SC. You can see him switching them in the 2nd night of Knebworth after Wonderwall. Hope Nick got the famous one from Knebworth and Unplugged show :) Cheers from Berlin

    I just wanted to say to James that I'm 56 and was in my late 20s when Oasis broke in the U.S. I bought the Morning Glory CD and loved it and I think bought the follow-up but then sort of went off Oasis. During the pandemic I really got much deeper into the Beatles and their discography than I ever had before and then I moved on to Oasis, who was much more huge in the UK than they ever were in the U.S. I'm stunned at the amount of quality songs that were put out in such a short time from '93 to '96 or so. For many like me in the U.S., we simply didn't know how huge Oasis was as a band. James' videos are the best out there that I've found on CZcams for Oasis fans and I've learned so much. Thanks so much for the content!

      Some of us were hip to Oasis, & stayed w/em. And the Don't Believe the Truth album, AND TOUR, were really a huge comeback for Oasis, Stateside! That was the tour that saw them finally sell out Madison Square Garden in NYC, The Hollywood Bowl in LA, The GMU Patriot Center in Washington D.C./Fairfax, Credit Union 1 Arena in Chicago, & several other huge gigs. Oh! Red Rocks Amphitheater, outside of Denver, etched right into the Rocky Mountains!

    This is every oasis fan's dream to do this absolutely fair play to you. I can't believe you got to play Noel's guitar that's just simply biblical let alone record there. I'd just be happy having played on it. Amazing video and I can't wait to hear your version.

    I love how you completely go to town on every video you do! I would implore every Oasis/Britpop fan to check out this channel. Every video puts a smile on my face! I never knew Noel used the Takamine on these recordings. I’ve had a g-series for the last 10 years and it’s the most beautiful guitar to play as far as action, and as you said, the sheer depth of tone.
    Looking forward to hearing the track!
    Keep up the amazing work, James.🙏👏👏👏

  • @peterwalshmusic
    @peterwalshmusic Před 2 lety +2

    I used to take my old E-16 reel to reel up Rockfield back in the early 00’s for the legendary Otto (who is now sadly past away) to fix and relap the heads on it, the closest I got to recording there was just standing in the coach house and the echo chambers when Otto showed me around.
    Fair play James you nailed that song and I’m really happy for you man, what an experience. I remember Nick being around the studio when I used to go up and always was a dream of mine to record there, but it never ever came true. So glad it has for you well done to you man. I find your videos a lot of fun and you’re very engaging in front of the camera. 👍🏻🤟🏻

  • @ChopKnives

  • @giulioluzzardi7632
    @giulioluzzardi7632 Před 2 lety +3

    Just proves you dont need super expensive instruments to succeed in music. Those guitars were at that time considered to be "Budget" models but with a nod to the 60s(Epiphone). Thanks for making me feel 21 again.

  • @andyvitali7510
    @andyvitali7510 Před 2 lety +1

    Enjoyed watching this video! That instrument is a true piece of history! Incredible that it still has the same strings on it. I believe the other acoustic guitar he used on the sessions was the Epiphone Frontier ( always thought that the Wonderwall sound was that guitar). A guitar that after 2000 disappeared from public appearances.

  • @TheGalwayFarmer
    @TheGalwayFarmer Před 2 lety +1

    I reckon Noel had two of these acoustics. If you watch Knebworth he seems to play Whatever, Cast No Shadow and Wonderwall before swapping guitars for the Masterplan. They look identical but neither seems to have the soundhole pickup.

    • @TheGalwayFarmer
      @TheGalwayFarmer Před 2 lety +1

      Correction, he plays Whatever and Cast No Shadow and swaps for the second guitar with the capo for Wonderwall. If you watch the second night you clearly see him swapping back for the Masterplan. This explains how he gave one to Nick and still used one for solo live appearances.

  • @robowen66
    @robowen66 Před 2 lety +1

    No wonder he used takamine, I played one for the 1st time 20 years ago and it was absolute perfection, never experienced it before or since

  • @malcolmcarter5790
    @malcolmcarter5790 Před 2 lety

    Fantastic video, loved it. Hate to say that Takemine made and supplied a few of those guitars, so not all the clips you show are the same one (not that really matters at all - it’s the Rockfield link you want). Keep it up James!

    Great video. Love the channel. But...undoubtedly, the most important guitar of the 1990’s was whatever Kurt Cobain used on Smells Like Teen Spirit. (I believe it was a modified Japanese made Fender Stratocaster.)

  • @neverenoughguitars8276

    Loving the authentic Riviera, though you didn't look too excited by it? You should borrow it and do a video, seeing as both Noel and Bonehead used them so much. Fun fact though, apparently Noel recorded DLBIA on an ex Johnny Marr 1962 Stratocaster!

    Later after Whats the story had come out. So he use the takamine for Morning Glory??? Not the epis thanks an again Great video 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
