Let's look at Knopfler's guitars

[Boom78]

I’ve been trawling through the lot and to my eyes the prices are nuts!

The 3 red 60s strats seem to be from post 2000’s and upwards of £100k!! I’d get it if they were 60s originals or from the actual album cover but they’re not.

Guess there’s just loads of rich people out there who are happy to blast their money on something rockstar related?

It's good that he gave 25% to charity, there are some people out there in pretty dire straits.

Yep some people are probably reaching for the Six Blade Knife. (Sorry, my favourite song of theirs)

I've never entirely understood how a single handed sailor could play a guitar, but great song.
