[p]The core of the electric guitar sound on most Oasis material is:

Gibson guitar using the bridge humbucker >

Tubescreamer or similar overdrive >

Slight delay effect >

Cranked Vox AC-30 or Marshall combo amp

To set your Katana for this try the following:

Amp type: crunch

Gain: 50%

Volume: 75%

EQ

Bass: 30%

Mids: 70%

Treble: 70%

FX

Boost: Yellow 80%

Delay: Yellow 10%

Reverb: Yellow 10%

Any electric guitar using the bridge pickup will get you close with those settings. But a Gibson style humbucker guitar using the bridge position is going to be the closest because that's what they almost always used.

The 'Bushes' song turns down the gain considerably on the main riff. Turn the amp gain & boost gain down a bit. But the core is the same. And the lead turns the gain back up but sounds like the neck pickup.

The Swamp song turns the gain up (& maybe adds a fuzz tone).

Hope that helps!
