With a much-loved 1953 Gibson Southerner Jumbo already in his collection, Mark Knopfler purchased this second example from Gary’s Classic Guitars in Cincinnati, Ohio, in June 2007. Both Southerner Jumbos have spent time in Mark’s study for home use. Knopfler would predominantly use acoustics at home for songwriting purposes, as he explained to Vintage Guitar magazine in 2014: 'In terms of the songwriting, what I’m holding certainly [tends] to dictate. I’ve usually got an acoustic guitar when I’m fooling around at home, so most of the writing would be around that. And, if I’m taking a look at the songs, it will usually be with an acoustic in my hand… If I want to use a pick and strum a part, usually I’ll use my ’53 Gibson Southern Jumbo, which has a nice, even strum thing going on with itself.'
