This is what Epiphone say about the Bonehead Riviera:
Celebrate the unmistakable sound of Britpop with the Epiphone Bonehead Riviera, a faithful recreation of the iconic semi-hollow guitar played by Paul “Bonehead” Arthurs during Oasis’s rise to global fame. Inspired by his beloved 1984 Riviera, this signature model captures the look, feel, and tone heard on landmark albums including Definitely Maybe and (What’s the Story) Morning Glory?
Crafted with a five-ply maple body and solid maple centerblock, the Bonehead Riviera delivers enhanced sustain, exceptional resonance, and reduced feedback. Cream binding accents the body, while the three-piece maple neck features a comfortable SlimTaper™ C profile and bound rosewood fingerboard with 22 medium jumbo frets and classic pearloid parallelogram inlays.
The Sloped Dovewing headstock is equipped with premium die-cast tuners, a Graph Tech® nut for tuning stability, and elegant mother-of-pearl Epiphone and Gibson Crown inlays. Bonehead’s signature is reproduced in gold on the rear of the headstock, adding an authentic finishing touch.
Loaded with a pair of Alnico Classic PRO™ humbuckers, the Epiphone Bonehead Riviera delivers warm vintage character, rich harmonics, and powerful rhythm tones. Individual volume and tone controls with CTS® potentiometers provide precise tonal shaping, while black witch hat knobs with silver inserts complete the classic aesthetic. A premium hardshell case is included for secure transport and protection.
