It's rare to see someone play this solo as well as this with a pick

[@EliaGarutti]

It's Hybrid picking

[@blurelloh614]

It's because king knopfler did it without pick so it's just normal playing it without pick. It is not easier tho you have to feel that for playing with no pick

[@ililiililliliill9498]

Yeah! The solo isn’t hard, but it is extremely difficult to make it sound like the original recording. Especially with a pick.

That kind of blues lick at 0:44 is so fucking amaizing

great!

Tip if you’re practicing speed, practice the fast part at a slow tempo gradually going fast and soon you’ll be playing it with ease

[@angelohekkers4901]

can you already play it?

Dude your technic is absolutely perfect. Seems like you've spent many hours to practice it.

[@Slappaccino]

Gotta be honest...for all the hype this solo seems to get it is shockingly simple. I've never listened to this band before, but I keep seeing this song's outro solo getting praised for its technicality for some reason. I don't really see why tbh, but to each his own. I'm sure the guy playing did a good job.

[@christophermcdonald2483]

Br1 Grazie mille per l'apprezzamento!

[@alfista5289]

Bruno Io mi trovo in disaccordo. La sonorità di Mark deriva proprio dalla sua tecnica e l'uso del plettro snatura i suoi assoli. Nulla da dire sulla bravura di chi suona ma non è una versione degna dell'originale o di chi si impegna ad usare le dita.
