Mark Knopfler purchased this 1960 ES-330 from Fretted Americana in Calabasas, California, in May 2008 as a companion to his first 1960 ES-330, which was a gift from American singer-songwriter Tony Joe White in the 1980s and remains in Knopfler’s collection to this day. The guitar was tried during the recording process to get an idea of the sound and where it might fit in a particular song, but ultimately did not make it onto a record. From time to time, this guitar has been kept in his study for home use. Knopfler told us: 'Even if I wasn’t putting the guitars on records, I was playing them at home. They would be there to hand, never very far away from me.'
