Schecter Seafoam Green 1983 ex Jack Sonni – Dire Straits

Coming directly from the collection of Jack Sonni, this 1983 Seafoam Green Stratocaster-style Schecter represents a major milestone in the story of Dire Straits. This instrument accompanied Sonni on world stages, becoming one of his go-to guitars during the historic Brothers in Arms tour and shining particularly at Live Aid on July 13, 1985.

The guitar’s history is closely intertwined with that of Mark Knopfler: according to Jack Sonni, it was on this exact model that Knopfler recorded the solo for “One World” on the band’s iconic album. Knopfler also debuted it live in New York in 1983 alongside Sonni. A true relic of British rock, this unique piece embodies the golden age of a legendary band and the bond between two exceptional musicians.
