My modest version of the awesome "Sultans of Swing" by my favorite band: Dire Straits!

For that song, I used:

- Xavier Petit guitar (Pensa Suhr model)
- Line6 TonePort UX2
- Line6 Gearbox
- Ernie Ball 6166 volume pedal
- Backtrack

Thanks for listening! :)

  • Where can you find a guitar like that and how much would it cost?

  • @m4rio0710 Any luthier could do the job. I ordered it from Xavier Petit, in France. It was around 2500 Euros.

  • @TedBoyRomarino Thanks a million! My guitar is not a Pensa, but a copy from the french luthier Xavier Petit.

    You're absolutely right, the song is better with the rythm parts in between the solos. I did a more recent version with those (you can click on the video to go my latest cover if you want).

    Thanks again and cheers from France!

  • Very well played, and you do it with your fingers, not a plectrum, that makes it sound even closer to Grand Genious Mark sound. And the guitar, oh man! You really have a Pensa Custom MK??? I'd be happy just to see one in front of me!

    Just one criticism: i think you should play rhythms between the riffs, what do you think about it?

    Cheers!

  • @jernejblct5 Thanks a million! That's an old cover I made. Funny you comment it now as I just uploaded a more recent version (I was initially thinking you were commenting the new video...). Cheers and thanks a million!
