Really good stuff Mate ! Thanks Justin .

[@MrVidsAllDay]

Love that twangy Knopfler trademark!

[@chescajimenez3204]

Thanks so much for this Justin! Still going through it. I also learned how to do Sultans of Swing because of you and it's one of my favorite tunes!

[@oscarzoso6778]

grazie Justin, in questo periodo di isolamento...in italia, mi stai facendo studiare :-), molto bravo! grazie

[@dubman75]

Fair play to you Justin, taking your time to help us budding guitarists is much appreciated 👍🏻🎸

[@susangee2145]

Brilliant

[@origemcollectibles]

Now if you do the tunnel of love solo your Knopfler profile will almost be complete!

[@JustinGuitarSongs]

+Shimmy Krumholtz that has to happen ;)

[@DooblesGoDoobles]

that actually does have to happen, you have to do tunnel of love, theres only one lesson on youtube and that has no voiceover so it's pretty confusing

[@timhadzisavas8846]

once again you've out done yourself.. keep them coming my friend.

[@SiLondon72]

Great transription Justin - thanks so much for the time taken to put this together. Having tried to work out this song on and off for hours over the years, I appreciate how difficult it is. (Also somewhat comforting to see you also found parts of it challenging! The bridge in Part 3 and the outro have had my fingers in knots for years!) You have a great ear for picking out the melodies and rhythm and explaining them in a way that makes sense. Really helpful. :)

[@dgeboers]

Thx Justin, been waiting for the solo part.

[@ddeka2910]

thanks. can't get enough of marky.

[@petrtobisek6902]

[@robertmcdaniel196]

Great stuff Justin I haven't listened to the song yet but got my interest

[@black5f]

Hi Justin. Just wanted to say your time, patience and efforts are so very much appreciated. If I start to sound any good.. it's all down to you. T

[@keithmitchell7638]

Heck Justin that is awesome, thank you for a great explanation and lesson, now I have a lot of work to do to get even close to that!

[@joshuacarter2062]

you are badass! thank you for the lesson it was very helpful.

[@nemanjajevtic7159]

Hey Justin ! I know this is a bit old video but I would relly appreciate if you would find some time to do that awesome outro solo for this tune. I have a lot of trouble with learning this song, almost a week, but I will get it done, it's really a great song ! Thanks.

[@cassionandi]

What a tone!

[@JustinGuitarSongs]

+Cássio Nandi Citadin Kemper Profiler - 62 Fender Deluxe profile by M Britt! it's a great one!

[@dalemiller3975]

+JustinGuitar Songs Hi Justin...I think a big part of the solo is the sound of your guitar! What kind of amp, settings, pedal are you using to get the sound. I have a Tele with a Strat pick-up in the middle. How are you getting what I call the "bell sound"?

[@zacrider8854]

Awesome Justin, can you do a lesson on Brothers in Arms? omg brothers in arms is my favourite dire straits song

[@JustinGuitarSongs]

+Zac rider try the search function on my site for a pleasent surprise!

[@zacrider8854]

+JustinGuitar Songs.....Awesome I've found it on your site, thanks for your reply much appreciated :o)

[@EvgeniyNeutralMusician]

+Zac rider Yeah, how about using 'search' function even on KZbin before asking. What a disrespect... But I guess people like you will never vanish.

[@zacrider8854]

+Evgeniy NeutralMusician did you actually read Justin's reply? He was quite happy to let me know he has it on his site, so theres no need for your smart ass comment. You say... "what a disrespect"...... oh yeah my question was disrespectful.....lmao. You obviously don't know the meaning of disrespect, atleast make some sense. I guess smart ass people like yourself will never vanish.

[@EvgeniyNeutralMusician]

Zac rider "He was quite happy to let me know" - Lol. I see, we've got an absolute idiot here. Get lost, we don't have time for ignorant children. Ignored.

[@Pemol10]

We need Tunnel of Love next Justin!

[@VIVAGOKU1]

oh yeah We really do

[@volvo240maniac]

Justin I think it would be cool if you did Why Worry by Mark, as played live at Atrium, in D as he plays it there, it's a lovely song and really tasty passages trough chords...

[@esatgursoy7076]

Wow I remembered that outro solo different version of that is in sultans of swing

[@BiggusHansin]

Hi there, fantastic solo, are you planning to do the Telegraph road? I cant never stop listening on that one.

[@SiLondon72]

+BiggusHansin Yeah - Telegraph Road is beautiful - but such a long song, I think Justin would have to make about 20 videos to cover it :)

[@razvanr4627]

Do you consider making a lesson for the outro solo?

[@justinguitar]

+Razvan R this is it for now, sorry - lots more to do!

[@Ryuzaki848]

Awesome ! Thanks a lot for the lesson, but why don't you do the rest of the song ?

[@Ryuzaki848]

I watched his previous vids but after having learning all the content of these 4 vids, I've the impression I still miss some part (and some of them, I'm not able to play just by hear... :/)

[@Chilldude579]

I learned this song from you around a year or two ago but to this day, I can't do the last part with similar speed to knopfler.

[@hangedman821]

Use a metronome and speed it up a bit more every time. Then play it faster than Knopfler plays....and when you go back to doing it at normal pace it will be easy.

[@Chilldude579]

@@hangedman821 damn, I left that comment 2 years ago. Wow. Needless to say I can do it 1.5x speed with perfect note ringing right now. Thanks for reminding me of this piece of nostalgia I left here

[@hangedman821]

@@Chilldude579 Well done for getting there. I've just started it....wish me luck....he he. All the best mate!

[@Chilldude579]

@@hangedman821 hahah good luck man! Once you learn that one part, you actually accomplish alot in terms of improvement. Also mark uses that part in alot of his songs so you have that bonus!

[@hangedman821]

@@Chilldude579 Thanks for the encouragement Dorukan...i'm working on it. I'm showing my age.....but the first band I ever saw was Dire Straits at the Glasgow Apollo in 1978. 3,000 capacity....and it was half full. All the best mate!

[@EvgeniyNeutralMusician]

Justing, thank you very much for examining and analysis of such a great song/s. I wish you can do more of Dire Straits. Not only lessons, just play as well. Definately my the most favourite band. As well as Mark Knopfler is my 'guitar hero'. Really mostly because of him I started to play far better, not like complete shit strumming street songs. Well, along with The Who, probably ;) Mark Knopfler, a true legend. I wish you will meet with him one day or even jam. Same here, but I'm a realist :D Best wishes and keep up such a great work. Go on! Cheers!

[@carlosedward7991]

And the last solo?

[@richardsrensen4219]

do you also have this in a book Justin ?

[@JustinGuitarSongs]

+Richard Sørensen not yet!

Great ! Could you please do a acoustic tutorial for Zakk Wylde machine gun man 🤘🏽
