Notes & Caveats
- No specific numeric amp settings found in sources; values estimated based on typical WEM Dominator MKIII settings for 1990s Britpop rhythm guitar.
- No evidence of pedals or additional effects used on this track's riff section; all effects arrays left empty accordingly.
- Pickup choice inferred from typical bright, cutting rhythm tone and known use of Epiphone Riviera bridge pickup for Oasis rhythm parts.
- All gear and amp model information is specific to the Definitely Maybe album sessions, not general Oasis live or later studio gear.
- Settings cross-referenced with genre and era conventions for accuracy. Noel Gallagher's tone on 'Married with Children' is classic Britpop: clean-to-edge-of-breakup with pronounced mids, moderate bass, and slightly bright treble, likely using a Vox AC30 with low gain and minimal reverb. The amp is set for a forward, jangly, articulate sound typical of early Oasis recordings.
