Guitars used by Mark Knopfler on One Deep River

Solid Body Electric Guitars

Gibson Les Paul Special

Avg price: $1,601.79

Mark Knopfler purchased this guitar from Gary’s Classic Guitars in Cincinnati, Ohio, in November 2005. The Les Paul Special was soon put to use on a session, when Knopfler recorded the electric guitar part for Nashville singer-songwriter Paul Burch’s song Before the bells at British Grove Studios in late 2005, which would be released on the album East to West in 2006.

Steel-string Acoustic Guitars

Gibson Hummingbird

Avg price: $3,650.00

Mark Knopfler purchased this acoustic guitar from Rudolph Prankl of Guitar Relics of N.Y. Inc. in Bethpage, New York, in October 2005. Snapped for his online studio diaries, Knopfler's 1960s acoustic was photographed by keyboardist and album co-producer Guy Fletcher as one of a group of guitars used during album recording sessions at British Grove Studios in 2008-9.

The Hummingbird was used by guitarist Richard Bennett to record the bonus track The living end, from Knopfler's solo album One deep river. From time to time, Knopfler kept this guitar in his study for home use.
