Noel Gallagher published a photograph of his 2025 board: fourteen units, four of them echoes — a Boss DD-3, a Strymon El Capistan and TimeLine, an Empress Echosystem — plus three boosters, a Cry Baby Junior, a Keeley compressor and three ZVEX loopers.

## Signal chain

**Order evidence — Reconstructed.** No source publishes this sequence; the order is reconstructed. The units are evidenced; their sequence is the archive's inference from the convention below, not an observation. Do not report this order as documented.

Reconstruction convention: Tuner → Wah and filter → Compressor → Overdrive, distortion and fuzz → Modulation → Delay → Reverb → Amplifier. A documented routing zone always overrides it.

`Guitar → Dunlop CBJ95 Cry Baby Junior Wah → Kingsley Page Tube Boost → Keeley Compressor Plus → BSM Model OR Finest Treble Booster → Pete Cornish SS-2 Soft Sustain → Boss DD-3 Digital Delay → Strymon El Capistan → Strymon TimeLine → SIB Echodrive → Empress Effects Echosystem → Boss RV-3 Digital Reverb / Delay → ZVEX Lo-Fi Loop Junky → ZVEX Lo-Fi Loop Junky → ZVEX Lo-Fi Loop Junky → amplifier`

## Reconstruction note

The Chief's Guitars worked the inventory up from Gallagher's own official photograph of the board and published the units in the order they sit on it. Ground Guitar, compiling from Gallagher's 2023 That Pedal Show interview, Guitar Player in 2000 and MusicRadar in 2011, independently confirms the Kingsley Page boost, the SIB Echodrive and the Boss DD-3 as long-running fixtures, and records that the Echodrive is used for its drive section rather than its delay. The TC Electronic PolyTune 3 is omitted as a tuner. Board layout is not the same as a traced cable order, so the sequence here follows the physical arrangement rather than a published signal path. Earlier eras named by Ground Guitar, including the Roland Space Echo and the Ibanez TS-808, are not on this board.

### What order were Noel Gallagher's pedals in?

The complete order is reconstructed, not observed. The layout follows the cited routing constraints and the archive's signal-chain convention where the sources are silent: Guitar → Dunlop CBJ95 Cry Baby Junior Wah → Kingsley Page Tube Boost → Keeley Compressor Plus → BSM Model OR Finest Treble Booster → Pete Cornish SS-2 Soft Sustain → Boss DD-3 Digital Delay → Strymon El Capistan → Strymon TimeLine → SIB Echodrive → Empress Effects Echosystem → Boss RV-3 Digital Reverb / Delay → ZVEX Lo-Fi Loop Junky → ZVEX Lo-Fi Loop Junky → ZVEX Lo-Fi Loop Junky → amplifier.

### Is this Noel Gallagher's full guitar rig?

No. This dated entry covers 14 units in the effects path, not every piece of gear Noel Gallagher owned or used. Floor pedals, rack units and routing devices are included only where recorded; omitted equipment and uncertain connections are explained in the notes. It is not a complete or current rig inventory.

### When and where was this pedalboard used?

Board photographed and published by Gallagher, July 2025. Touring rig. This is one dated setup as documented, not a career-wide gear list.
