Aye. Though hardly an exclusive of his, Gem has been consistently showing up on stage with Non-reverse frybirds for years, still does with Liam's funky outfit. I reckon if someone "deserved" a non-reversie signature model, Gem would be most eligible by default.


Three of a zillion clips of Gem with the things:


Cherry + exposed coil humbucker'd w/Maestro

Cherry + chrome covered humbucker'd w/Maestro

You betcha...Beady Eye's arrangement of the Terran theme from Starcraft I :P

Didn't Noel give Gem the Firebird? Or they both use them... Noel plays one in one of their earlier videos. May be Cigarettes & Alcohol, not sure.

Ha, I used to get taught by one of the guys who runs that site at Music College. Apparently he sold one of Jimi Hendrix's guitars years ago and bought a house with the money! Crazy.
