(2,574 posts)1. Rory had as good a natural command of the guitar as anyone
I've ever seen or heard. It's like he was born with a guitar as an extra appendage. Love the tone of his old strat.
Thanks for posting!

Especially on the solo parts.
There's a good view about a minute in, and as I guessed, he's got that Strat in pickup position 2.
That is such a cool sound.
People who remember early Dire Straits have heard that, but with a clean amp. Mark used that same position 90% of the time back in the day.
