Mark Knopfler purchased this Eko 500 from Rudy’s Music Stop on West 48th Street, New York, in March 2004, towards the end of recording sessions at Shangri-La studios in Malibu, California for his fourth solo studio album Shangri-La. Knopfler told us that he tried out a couple of Ekos for the track 'Song For Sonny Liston' before settling for the blue Eko 700 as the right guitar for the song. After recording was completed on Shangri-La, Knopfler kept the guitar for home use. See footnotes to lots 50 and 52.
