In this 5/8/23 live preformance of "Starship Trooper" in Valkenburg, The Netherlands, Anderson can be seen accompanied by The Paul Green Rock Academy, playing a Martin SC-13E Acoustic with leaf/vine artwork on it's front.
The SC-13E is identifable by it's offset body-shape (which is unusual compared to C.M. Martin's other traditionally-constructed models).
