Did Mark King use a Zon bass on "Something about you" video ??

I knew he used to play Alembic and Status, but that bass looks like a modified Zon Scepter.

I can't seem to open the video, but Mark has been most often seen and identified with a Jaydee Supernatural bass made by John Diggins in the UK.

I got a chance to play that bass years ago. The Bass Centre, back when it was in Wapping in London, had it, complete with Mark King's signature on the back. And it's a Legacy, not a Scepter. Very nice bass. Shame I wasn't a good enough player back then to do it any justice.
