As stated on page 87 of the March 1980 issue of International Musician and Recording World, an Esquire was Montrose's main guitar for Open Fire. He later sold it to Carlos Santana in early 1980.
"On my solo LP I just used a little amp and a fuzz (tone). The main instrument I used was a Fender Esquire that I just sold to Carlos Santana." Montrose shrugs his shoulders. "I'm not into flash," he emphasizes.
