Silvertown blues from Mark Knopfler's album "Sailing to Philadelphia". Since my subscriber "master244" claims that there are no full covers of this song on YouTube (except performances by MK himself - and he was 100% right), I recorded this one so the man can finally have peace of mind ;) Equipment used: Fender Mark Knopfler signature Stratocaster, Fender Twin Reverb amp, Marshall JH-1 overdrive pedal, Shure 545 Unidyne III microphone and E-MU 1212M soundcard.

  • incredible tone man! what amp and or effects are you using? or eq that is?

    from colorado

  • All equipment is mentioned in the video description.

  • mk strats are only 1,600$

  • Depends. They seem to vary in price as much as 500$, somwhere they cost as much as 2100$. And that's only if you buy in the USA - here in Croatia they cost around 3000$. All round Europe they can be found for even higher price. That's why I bought it on Ebay. BTW, demand for this guitar is so high they can barely make enough of them. Confirmed by several trustworthy sellers.

  • Wow - you really have MK's sound and feel down to a tee - you must surely play in a Croatian Dire Straits Tribute Band!!

  • I love this song, hope i can play it soon. Really superb. Bet it wil sound great on my fender amp :-)

  • ...and another great non-beginner instructional video, not sure if you are the best technical mk-player out there, but your videos are always a great inspiration to me when looking for good hints to mk-playing.

  • very nice;)
