Cool that you made a video so quickly like this.

[VJ-ssil]

I can’t think of any other oasis channel quite as detailed and good as this one, cheers

Mate these last few videos you’ve made have been absolutely class, they’re just so enjoyable to watch and are well researched and set out. Keep them coming 👍

[ДмитрийПоляков-эт]

so fantastic and simple - just Strat and Vox with just a single mic.Thank you very much. NG had so many cool live tones also. My favourite the one he had during 2002/2003 tours with the born on a different cloud and stop crying your heart out.

Wow, that was quick! Another brilliant video. I’ll be giving this a go later...

[Rustyjamesman]

That tone sounds really good!! I could definitely see it used for slide away

[alessandroferrettitv]

Nice one James. Ever thought about focusing on Morning Glory SACD mixes? You can easily find them here on youtube and I found them so curious because you get to hear almost each instrument on each song as in the original record they are crushed by the guitars. Give them a listen!

For twice, thank you mate ! Youre really nailed it !

[petesampras]

Really enjoying these videos. Keep it up mate.

[kperez]

Thank you so much James. Cheers from California, USA

The eq really helped a lot, great tone

[swallergrmsby]

The Tubescreamer bit reverb and delay normal works for me ! Top videos enjoying the depth analysis

[BillyReedMusic]

Excellent. Thanks so much for sharing your knowledge.

[musicmeister]

Thanks a lot for this! I’ve got a weird setup currently of a Marshall 50w acoustic amp and a ToneWorks Korg pedalboard, im saving up for a Marshall cab and head - however this video really helped me to get way closer to Noel’s tone (im playing Oasis songs at a pub gig soon) thanks so much!

Watched Noel Gallagher on the Pedal Show. Was blown away when he revealed that the solo for don't look back in anger was done with a strat.

Really enjoying these videos, putting a bit of respect on oasis name. Guitarists tend to shit on the band and Noel but what they done they done well, it helped players like me get better by learning noels solos and move onto harder stuff.

[hjw]

All these years of watching oasis videos and concerts how have I never seen Noel playing a Stratocaster? To my ear I wouldn't have guessed that solo was on a strat - but there you have it. Every days a school day

[dazmoshmazmo]

Brilliant - will be trying this out later

[richfromtheligerz]
