Anthony received his Bachelor’s Degree in Music with an Emphasis in Music Recording Technology from Lebanon Valley College in 2007.  He subsequently went to work for his father’s construction business while pursuing a career in music with the Anthony Lattanze Band and later Counter Riot.  It was during this time that the 4th generation carpenter began to take interest in luthiery.

“Part of it was just necessity.  I wanted to be able to fix my guitars if I was on the road or at a gig.  But part of it was also an old surfer philosophy: before you can really ride the wave, you have to build your board.  I began to see luthiery as an extension of my playing and how I conceptualize the instrument. I've carried that sentiment into every guitar I've built.”
