Mark Knopfler takes us through two of the most iconic guitars from his legendary career with Dire Straits. His 1958 Gibson Les Paul Standard, famously used on ‘Brothers in Arms,’ with its rich, warm tone and incredible sustain and the 1961 Fender Stratocaster—the unmistakable red Strat that defined the sound of ‘Sultans of Swing’—highlighting its crisp, clear notes and how it perfectly complements his fingerpicking style. #markknopfler #direstraits #gibsonguitars #fender #GuitarDaily #Guitar #Gu
