"Pedals are FUN!!! And luckily it is very easy to change around and try different ones. So I do that a lot. But here are a few of my “must haves” (right now:) TC electronic: Polytune 2 SpectraComp bass compressor ditto looper Bonafide buffer Helix phaser DOD: envelope filter 440…"

"I like to play and try out different basses since I believe that you can’t find everything you need in just one bass –even though you can get close […]

Sandberg: California VM hardcore aged master piece

Yamaha: TRB5

Fender: Jazz bass."

Ida normally uses a TC Electronic RH450 amp with two RS210 cabinets, but when playing the major venues and stadiums, she doubles up, using her RH450 to power up two RS410 cabs

"I have had the great opportunity to create my own signature bass with Sandberg guitars. It was a natural choice for me since I have been playing (and loving it) the California VM hard core aged masterpiece for many years and I know the bass + the nice people at Sandberg very well. I wanted to make a bass that fit the music I played with PRINCE as well as my own music. So basically a bass with a nice rock and funk tone with an ability to sound more old school and some extra options when it comes to create different solo sounds. I think we build a very beautiful bass with lots of different sound options but most importantly -a bass that is super funky sounding. A video will be made soon to demo the different features and sound options. In the mean time feel free to browse around the pics and check out the specs -I hope you think it is as beautiful as I do :) (This is a 4 string bass but it will also come in a 5 string version)."

Ida Kristine Nielsen uses the TC Electronic BH800 bass amplifier head, as detailed on her official gear page.

"I use a Crybaby bass wah, an envelope filter, two octavers that each play an octave up and an octave down, TC’s Polytune and a bass booster."

"The sound (toneprint) is called funk in the trunk, and we're trying to do a sound that is not a fuzz, but has a little bit of bite to it, and sounds a little bit old school as well; because i really like that."

I am a long time user of the Gruv-gear frets wraps and I never play without them. They are really super handy for my style of playing and are a huge upgrade from the hair thingie I used to have 🙂 I also use their club bag which is super convenient.
