Mark Knopfler is confirmed to use a Gibson ES-350T, which he acquired in the mid-1980s from Rudy Pensa. In an interview with Neil McCormick for The Telegraph in 2012, Knopfler reflected on his early musical influences, stating: “I fell in love with songs when I was very, very small. Chuck Berry made a huge impression, where the rhythm of the lyrics is as important as the music, there’s a ricocheting effect.” Furthermore, Knopfler utilized this Gibson ES-350T while producing Willy DeVille's 1987 album Miracle, specifically playing it through a Fender Vibrolux for his solo on DeVille’s cover of Van Morrison's "Could You Would You?"
