On the Making movies tour in 1981, Mark Knopfler played a Rickenbacker guitar on Portobello Belle. To my knowledge only one single picture exists with this guitar which is the one below.

Since I have this picture at a rather high resolution, I also put in an enlarged version with just that guitar.

I would be lying if I said I am an expert on Rickenbacker guitars, so feel free to suggest which model it is using the comment function.

    The Ric looks like a Model 425 as seen in the below link.

  2. Thanks for your comment, it seems you are right. BTW, your comment was for some reason in the spam filter, this is why it did not appear before now.
