Details

This artificially-aged Stratocaster was built in Summer 2016 as a custom order by Noel himself. It is finished in a pink-orange colour that Fender appropriately named Tahitian Coral.

According to guitar tech Dave White, Noel got his inspiration from a book of old Fender colours.1

Noel has never played it live, but since 2017 it has been one of Gem's touring guitars: he has played it in Half the World Away, Rattling Rose, Riverman, We're Gonna Get There in the End and We're On Our Way Now.

    It’s not a custom shop. It’s an American Standard series refinished by Philippe Dubreuille. Phillippe told me that when he was refinishing my guitar. Found that out after I asked him about the smashed ES-355.
