Sultans of Swing in 2014 Fender Stratocaster ad
« on: February 24, 2014, 12:23:58 AM »
I bought a March issue of the Guitar Techniques magazine recently and was frustrated by MK-related article.
It is lol indeed, but this magazine revealed for me a brand new Fender ad which is awesome and have Sultans in it:



It was funny, in my Knopfler VK fan-group we suggested a songs from this list and this ad became quite popular.

Great! Thanks for posting! Maybe they will produce a documentary or book or even make a gig to celebrate it  like the ones they did for the 50th anniversary!
Come on, it is not funny anymore.

Nice edit!

Modest ad from Fender with that tag line at the bottom. ::)
