Engineer Nick Brine worked on Oasis albums during the 1990s and owns the acoustic guitar Noel Gallagher used for Wonderwall. The story begins when Liam Gallagher destroyed equipment at Abbey Road Studios during Be Here Now recording sessions. Liam felt angry after reading newspaper comments from his brother and started throwing guitars around Studio Two. The tantrum damaged both Noel's Fender Jag and Brine's personal 1970s Japanese Fender acoustic.

Noel arrived to find his guitar smashed and questioned who owned the other broken instrument. Liam claimed both guitars belonged to his brother but Noel knew the damaged acoustic was not his property. The brothers argued about who would replace Brine's destroyed guitar and both offered to buy him a new one. Liam wanted to take the engineer to Denmark Street for guitar shopping but Noel insisted on handling the replacement himself.

Noel made Liam telephone Brine's mother to apologize for breaking her gift to her son. The younger Gallagher made the awkward phone call and expressed genuine remorse for his destructive behavior. Noel felt embarrassed about his brother's actions and gave Brine the famous Takamine acoustic from Knebworth and MTV Unplugged performances. The engineer still owns the valuable guitar worth up to one hundred thousand pounds today.
