A great short read and amazing listen on Knophler and his strat and twin reverb. I never realized his red strat was vintage.

His tone is all in his hands (technique). For sure.

He will be forever linked to the Strat but the last five shows I saw he played the Les Paul 80% of the time.

One of my favorite guitar players of all time:
Jerry, Bobby, Knopfler, Steve Cropper, GE smith, Duane Allman

That's a great article and love how much he focuses on traditional technique on both left and right hand!!



PS - edited your title to correct his name. i almost didn't open it!
