Description

This 2005 Fender Mark Knopfler Signature Stratocaster in Hot Rod Red is a standout example of what makes this model so special. Built with a solid ash body, maple neck, and rosewood fingerboard, it captures that classic Strat feel while leaning into Knopfler’s signature tone. It’s loaded with a set of Fender Custom Shop Texas Special™ single-coils in all three positions. The neck features a comfortable “C” profile with a 7.25" radius, 21 medium-jumbo frets, and ivory dot markers—perfect for smooth bends and expressive playing. Hardware includes vintage-style Fender tuners, a synthetic bone nut, and a Fender American Vintage synchronized tremolo. Aged white knobs and a 3-ply parchment pickguard complete the classic look. This guitar is in near-mint condition, completely original, and plays beautifully thanks to a smooth, dialed-in setup.

Comes with the original hard shell case.
