Few instruments are as deeply tied to a band’s identity as Paul “Bonehead” Arthurs’ Riviera is to the sound of early Oasis records. From club stages to stadiums, his mid-’80s Epiphone Riviera was the driving force behind the band’s massive, jangling rhythm guitars — providing the punch, clarity, and attitude that helped shape an era of Britpop. The Bonehead Signature Riviera is a faithful recreation of that iconic instrument, capturing its classic construction, its unmistakable look, and the tonal character that powered some of the most influential rock records of the 1990s.

Built with a five-ply layered maple body and a solid maple centerblock, this Riviera blends semi-hollow resonance with the stability and sustain required for high-volume rhythm work. Its three-piece maple neck features Epiphone’s SlimTaper C profile — fast, comfortable, and ideal for Arthurs’ heavy strumming style— while the bound rosewood fingerboard adds warmth and vintage character. Authentic appointments tie the instrument directly to Bonehead’s original, including his reproduced signature on the back of the headstock, mother-of-pearl Epiphone and Gibson Crown inlays, and the classic Sloped Dovewing headstock shape.

Tonally, the Bonehead Riviera is built to deliver the wide, articulate sound Oasis is known for. A matched set of Alnico Classic PRO humbuckers offers warmth, chime, crunch, and surprising dynamic sensitivity — perfect for big chord work, textured studio layering, or more nuanced clean passages. CTS potentiometers ensure smooth, predictable response, while the LockTone Tune-O-Matic and Stop Bar tailpiece provide rock-solid tuning stability under aggressive playing. Available now at Haggerty’s Music, this signature model is as stage?ready as the music that inspired it.
