Fender Mark Knopfler Stratocaster
The Mark Knopfler Stratocaster guitar is a true “sultan of swing,” with a ’57 Strat ash body and vintage tinted ’62 C-shaped maple neck with rosewood fingerboard. Knopfler’s unmistakable tone comes from three Texas Special single-coil pickups and a five-way switch. Other features include Fender/Gotoh vintage tuners and an American Vintage tremolo system.
