Product Information

Few guitarists embody Epiphone’s For Every Stage philosophy quite like Paul “Bonehead” Arthurs. From intimate early gigs at The Water Rats to the historic Knebworth concerts, Bonehead’s Epiphone Riviera was a constant companion—delivering the driving, textured rhythm work that helped define Oasis’s unmistakable sound. His most legendary instrument, a 1984 Riviera, was front and center during the recording of Definitely Maybe, (What’s the Story) Morning Glory, and throughout the band’s meteoric rise in the 1990s. Now, Epiphone is proud to offer a faithful recreation of that iconic guitar.

The new Epiphone Bonehead Riviera features a five-ply maple body with a solid maple centerblock, designed to enhance sustain and reduce unwanted feedback. Cream binding outlines the top and back, while the three-piece maple neck sports a SlimTaper™ C profile and volute, topped with a bound rosewood fingerboard fitted with 22 medium jumbo frets and pearloid parallelogram inlays. The Sloped Dovewing headstock includes premium die cast tuners with oval metal buttons, a Graph Tech® nut for smooth tuning, and a two-ply crescent bullet truss rod cover with the Epiphone “E” logo. The headstock also showcases a mother-of-pearl Epiphone logo and Gibson Crown, along with Bonehead’s signature reproduced in gold on the back.

Equipped with a pair of Alnico Classic PRO™ humbuckers, the Bonehead Riviera delivers rich, vintage-inspired tone. Each pickup is controlled by individual volume and tone knobs with CTS® potentiometers, black witch hat knobs with silver inserts, and dial pointers for quick visual reference. A hardshell case is included, making it easy to protect your gear whether you’re heading to rehearsal, a recording session, or your next tour stop.

Highlighted Features:

  • Authentic construction for classic tone
    The five-ply maple body with a solid maple centerblock delivers enhanced sustain and minimizes feedback, staying true to the sound that defined Oasis’s early records.
  • Premium neck and fretboard details
    A three-piece maple neck with a SlimTaper™ C profile and volute offers smooth playability, while the bound rosewood fretboard features 22 medium jumbo frets and pearloid parallelogram inlays for a vintage look and feel.

  • Signature headstock appointments
    The Sloped Dovewing headstock includes Epiphone’s die cast tuners, a Graph Tech® nut, and mother-of-pearl inlays of the Epiphone logo and Gibson Crown—plus Bonehead’s signature in gold on the back for a personal touch.

  • Versatile electronics and stage-ready hardware
    Powered by Alnico Classic PRO™ humbuckers and CTS® potentiometers, the Riviera offers rich, dynamic tone control. Black witch hat knobs with silver inserts and dial pointers add both style and functionality, and a hardshell case is included for reliable protection on the road.
