According to Bass Player November 2003 (Japanese), Sting used a custom-made Ibanez bass with a similar specification to the MC940 model, albeit with a natural finish and maple neck. Included a different layout of control and a pearl inlay of Sting's name included at the fingerboard end.
Sting received this bass in around February 1980 and used it during the latter part of the Reggatta De Blanc tour and occasionally during the Zenyatta Mondatta tour. It was also among the basses used on the Zenyatta Mondatta album, visible in the Wisseloord Studios control room in footage taken during the recording sessions included in the Everyone Stares (2006) documentary.
