Some might say £130k for Noel's guitar is bit high

The Epiphone Les Paul standard electric guitar, inset, which had a sales estimate of £60,000 to £80,000, went under the hammer during Sotheby’s inaugural popular culture sale.

The final sale price soared to £132,000 following the Gallagher brothers announcing they are finally reuniting for a 2025 tour following their acrimonious split in 2009.

Prior to the final recording of 1994’s Definitely Maybe at Sawmills Studio, the guitar was owned and used by Gallagher in sessions at Out Of The Blue Studios in Manchester and Monnow Valley Studios in Wales.

It also featured in the music video and on the cover artwork for Oasis’ debut single Supersonic, as well as being played at a number of early live performances including at the Boardwalk in Manchester, Gleneagles in Scotland and Water Rats in London.
