Dick Knight Guitars Update

Postby roxoff66 » Mon Sep 12, 2011 12:17 am

Hi Gordon
With reference to your purchase of a Dick Knight 12 string, I may be able to shed some light on Mike Oldfields' Dick Knight guitar. Having recently purchased a 1968 Dick Knight brazilian rosewood acoustic needing a little work, top refin etc with Dewsbury luthier John Marlow, generously, the person I purchased the guitar from, has sent me a pic of a maple Knight acoustic, ex Mike Oldfield, sold on to him via Mikes' brother in '70s, plus, a photo of the talented Dick Knight taken in the 70s.
If I seek permission from the sender to forward, would you be interested in having a couple of gaps of info filled in re these subtle and individually voiced guitars and their maker?
Regards
Paul Sheppard
