Rig Rundown: Henry Kaiser's Five Times Surprise

A studio visit with the new gear-heavy improv/art-rock supergroup that includes Henry Kaiser, Andy West, and Anthony Pirog.

Anthony’s main amp is a 1965 blackface Fender Deluxe Reverb, which is stock except for its Weber California 12" speaker. His second choice, which also made the trip from Virginia to Nashville in his car, is a 20-watt handwired Marshall 2061.
