Hey Thanks
Comment from : @xstreamerzmcgregor3466

I've been holding off learning this for too long
Comment from : @xstreamerzmcgregor3466

Nailed the right hand technique great job !
Comment from : @Daniheavey

Excellent
Comment from : @flylippfantom8425

I agree with the comments that say this is the only tutorial that gets it right And you brought the receipts (the video showing exactly how Knopfler attacks the strings) The fact that you're getting the effects out of an acoustic is just another level altogether One question for you: do you know what gauge strings you're using? I'm using lights (12-16-24-32-42-53) and I cannot get them to ring out as well on the down-flick I realize I may have to build some finger strength ( you make it look so effortless) But I was also wondering if a different gauge string would help

в оригинале никакого си бемоля в начале второй половины рифа нет, там идет до ре ре
Comment from : @eIectroboy

Man, you really get it! Not even just how to play it, but how it works down to its bones! brbrSo cool to finally find this video, like scratching an itch that all of the other videos leave It should be the top result when searching this for sure I genuinely think this might be one of the best guitar tutorials on YouTube!
Comment from : @Muzikman127

The finger downstroke thing is so hard to get to come out nicely on an acoustic, respect!!
Comment from : @Muzikman127

back again for the second performance This really is one of the most solid performance of this song I know Mark-Knop invented this, but you are performing this better than anyone
Comment from : @chuckmacnorris9613

Really Solid playing and teaching here Thanks Pavel The best breakdown of this song on youtube
Comment from : @chuckmacnorris9613

super awesome! ur a star!!!
Comment from : @blackdog12873

Pavel, greetings from Spain, thanks so much for your videos and share your playing, you give people the chance to play as hell!!!
Comment from : @davolimerick

This is really great Thankyou
Comment from : @pro_muso

Hey Someone playing the Bb on the D string😊
Comment from : @guitartommo2794

Even better than the Mark K' s demo excellent analysis !
Comment from : @TimothyPayne-vf9kz

Hey…that really IS the way you do it👍🏻
Comment from : @guitartommo2794

최고야
Comment from : @irjanirjan2745

So happy I learned how to play it exactly like you do ❤️ gonna share a video playing that riff on my YouTube channel, thank you bro 🙏🏻
Comment from : @Guitarisuto94

Such a good video Also a phenomenal demonstration of that old saying that most of the tone is in the fingers; these videos illustrate just how much of Mark's sound is down to his right hand technique and unusual approach to picking and muting Really useful resource, thank you
Comment from : @SebastianCrankshaw

Bro, I learned this riff from you, that's the purest tutorial of that song ever, one request, we want to see you playing it on an electric guitar 🎸 brThank you Pavel, you rock!!
Comment from : @Guitarisuto94

I was in a band that covered this song for quite a while I played a bar-passable version of this However, watching this video, I can see I was doing it about 15 correct I only say that because most of my left hand action was correct My right hand was doing almost nothing correct I'm glad there were no purists around to call me out Lol What an excellent lesson 👍
Comment from : @floydargue

Great lesson Thanks for sharing!
Comment from : @fabiocoelho6200

Move ah move ah MOVIE stars
Comment from : @StuPedassol

Thanks! Finally I able to play this riff correctly I would like to see more Dire Straits in your channel, Like Southbound Again, Down to the waterline and etc
Comment from : @ilaiaflalo9666

I am begging your pardon but I was able to find a more option and therefore able to clip 5 seconds of any part to study it Still a very challenging piece but I believe worth the effort
Comment from : @jimmyperinientertainment2832

Thank you so much!
Comment from : @vanlandeghemvince

what a cool and clean performance at the beginning Pavel, both vocal and instrumental The Ayatollah approves
Comment from : @theayatollahofrockandrollah

Comment from : @hunterhobbs4374

Comment from : @AkshayKumar-ql5cj

Finally How it's really played That lovely chucka chucka rhythm Hiding in plain sight Thank you!
Comment from : @JohnsArtStories

Спасибо Павел! Только у тебя увидел более детальный и доходчивый разбор этой песни!👍 Отдельное спасибо за Табулатуру🤝
Comment from : @SarvaGary

Tremendous success in unraveling the playing of this wonderful hit Great job Thanks for the post Like many of his songs, this sounds fantastic on one accoustic guitar, almost as much as the full production Like many of his songs, it sounds more simple and clear than it actually is This video makes it possible for me to seriously attempt it on my own Thanks so much
Comment from : @johncampbell2273

Great instructional video! You did an excellent job!
Comment from : @joebolick112

This song has always been present in my audiosbrLove it
Comment from : @maangelicaduz

He know's em chord's
Comment from : @allanaxe6781

Im gonna have to make it a point to learn this one I tinkered with it a few times, but I'm going floating/camping next month and I'm taking a noisemaker or two (AKA) guitar I have to build up my catalog for playing
Comment from : @user79592

Hi Pavel, every lesson out there that I looked at was wrong, and you nailed it 110 I am very thankful for showing us the right way ! And , thank you for the tab that explains the right hand pattern in detail I owe you one, I subscribed and turned the notifications on, and I will check out your Patreon
Comment from : @jhnel13

Not my favourite due to overexposure but Knopfler is on fire live with this and I thank you for this lesson Again, top notch Bless you for helping us
Comment from : @nicholaswoolfenden5254

Amazing and fantastic!brThanks so much for sharingbrSubscribed !
Comment from : @ilanwinkel1942

Your voice is very similar to the Mark's one
Comment from : @firpo81

Brilliant 👍
Comment from : @MrNmw123

This is the only performance I’ve seen besides Mark himself playing it that’s correct
Comment from : @alexspreservationsociety

Very well done But it is a really tough one I think I’d need to spend one year just on this to make it sound right…“So what have you learnt to play during the last twelve months Mona? Eh…Money For Nothing…“🙈
Comment from : @monag769

I'd always thought I knew how to play this song well enough After an acquaintance at a neighbor's party almost convinced me to grab my acoustic from next door and play it for him, I decided to do some homework Your video is one of the best guitar tutorials I've ever seen - great insight into Knopfler's fluid skills and nuance from both hands
Comment from : @mkrd2000

the downstroke move with the middle and index finger is so weird to do when you're not used to that movement
Comment from : @vanlandeghemvince

Wahou, good lesson, welldone Like it ! Thanks !
Comment from : @richardj29

Ive been looking for this for so long Thank you so much
Comment from : @sandlmv8301

Great stuff Pavel, the way you played the riff at the start says it all!
Comment from : @peterclancymusic1518

Comment from : @MSGFAB71

Great job!!!!!!!
Comment from : @DHgtr1

Never would think I'd like an acoustic version of a pure electric riff but you make it sound awesome and the singing is awesome too I know its an older video now but thank you for making it
Comment from : @kcpiranha58

Great lesson TY so much Pavel
Comment from : @electricjed

Guitar name ?
Comment from : @marcovillani263

Hello sir😊😊😊
Comment from : @boyhilotngjapan235

I just watched the best guitar tutorial video ever You captured and explained the genius of this riff perfectly, and on an acoustic guitar too which sounds fantastic Sorry Paul Davids but this is the way Knopfler does it and you got it wrong
Comment from : @stephen25uk

It doesn't start on the offbeat
Comment from : @Djellowman

Thanks, good job brother 👍
Comment from : @josenoelzepeda4769

7 days later and I’m still stuck on the first few bars of the song This is a tough one for me
Comment from : @precisionsoundworksstudio

Singing and playing is so hard with this song!!
Comment from : @bigpapi2658

I’m 1 min into the vid, and I’m already hooked!
Comment from : @precisionsoundworksstudio

Middle finger bleeding right here
Comment from : @hugoteixeira7118

Thank you for doing this instructional video it is my mission to learn this now!!
Comment from : @acotten32

Great Video and great chunking on the teaching part You make the song rly approachable brWithout having it mastered, but after watching some tutorials on YouTube on it, I also think that the natural harmonics are a byproduct of playing, and tabbing them out as mandatory is kind of an overmystificationbrGreat insights, thx a lot!brSubbed the first time I saw your work, you rly do sth special here
Comment from : @fmg9666

Every video I’ve seen you play in is intriguing and informative, I’ve been playing since I was 8 (almost 20 years ago now) and I still learn new tricks from your videos and how to properly play dire straights step by stepbrThank you😎🔥
Comment from : @blairenns5202

Nailed it, seriously, every other tutorial, nice try, you've helped to manage to get to this point, but it can go in the bin now
Comment from : @FactorySettings

Odličan video i objašnjenje jedan od najboljih rock riff ova Ton pogotovu
Comment from : @mihajlovic28

Subbed you're amazing 🇷🇺🙏
Comment from : @Xisansia

I think I FINALLY managed to play this riff thanks to your video Very precise and very clear Thank you !
Comment from : @thomasdaurel9581

I was dying, literally dying to play this riff correctly, for a while I have seen many covers, many lessons, many tutorials But there was something missing, always as I played it, it felt like something is off, missing, And by grace of God , I came to your video brAnd lo and behold, it opened up like a pandora box brIt took me 2 days to figure it out, 100 accurately as you instructed brAnd i am really feeling it now brIt's very very different brThe beat is pumping in me, and i dont feel like playing notes now I really feel that i am playing alive music that is throbbing Thank you very much This means a lot to me A lot brI knew that Mark plays fingerstyle in his own waybrNot only a good song, a killer riff, with killer tone, but also adds one more technical ability to guitar players (as you learn to play fingerstyle) brYou put in the work and i appreciate it so much Much love and light to you , man
Comment from : @rahullou3387

You are a LEGEND! Thanks a lot
