Stand Next To Our Anniversary Fire

 
 

Of course, we advised him not to pitch the pup tent right on the rim of the active Moha Kowona volcano. But full of artistic enthusiasm, Tom was happily determined to get a realistic view of the eruption as it was happening in real time. Said he had a new guitar-finish idea in mind and needed to see what it was like up close and personal.

Editor’s note: Kids, adults and all those in-between, do not try this at home or even at your favorite active volcanic site.

But having minored in volcanology, it all worked out well for us. We came home with a perfect vision of how the color Fire Burst should be created, implemented and executed.

It quickly became a favorite shade and is now reappearing on this special, Tom-chosen and specced, 40th Anniversary, Limited Edition, Drop Top. Ablaze in Fire Burst, its wild, Tubular Quilt Maple Top reminiscent of flowing lava streams—enjoyed from a safe distance, so only the beauty of creation remains.

Geothermal geology aside for a moment, you probably already know that in celebration of Anderson Guitarworks’ 40 Year Anniversary, only 40 Limited Edition, 40th Anniversary Guitars will be created. 20 unique builds. This essentially means two renditions of each exclusive instrument—with a variant here and there.

And for you well versed in mathematics, this also essentially means that there will be one more Drop Top like this that will appear before the end of the year.

This gorgeous fire breather is headed to Five Star Guitars in Beaverton, Oregon—thankfully, nowhere near the Moha Kowona volcano.
