[hide]Introduction
Stewart Copeland either bought this guitar at Manny's in New York in 1978 (together with Sting's Stratocaster) - or right before the 1979-03-29 concert.
(in a 2019 with Carl Wiser he mixes up several shopping sprees into one memory by telling that a LOT of instruments were bought all on one day before the 1979-03-29 concert ---- which can't be as at least two of the instruments he mentions were in the band's posession before that)
Stewart Copeland probably used it to record late Klark Kent tracks and The Police demos. The guitar was also present during The Police's recording of Ghost In The Machine at AIR Studios.
Stewart still uses it at the Sacred Grove in Los Angeles, CA, USA.
