As for Melissa Auf der Maur's bass rig on the album, "It's not that hard," she says. "A Fender Precision bass and an Ampeg B15. Michael Beinhorn had some crazy subwoofers running in the studio. And we used a super fuzzed-out Acoustic amp for some things. But if you're a bass player doing rock, Fender and Ampeg are the way to go."

“As a bass player, I don’t use that many pedals, but my first and favorite BOSS pedal that I use for the bass is a [CE-2B] chorus pedal. I love chorus on bass, and that was the first one I ever got.”

Auf der Maur uses an MXR Carbon Copy, according to Dunlop's website.

According to Dunlop's website, Auf der Maur uses an MXR M-101 Phase 90 pedal.

According to Dunlop's website, Auf der Maur uses an MXR M80 Bass DI+.

"We also used some BOSS [CE-5] choruses and [OC-2] octave dividers. I also like the fact that the BOSS pedals are colored, so we talk about them in terms of … ‘the orange one, the green one,the red one, the purple one, the blue one’ [laughs]."

In most of her time play with the Pumpkins and other bands during 1999-2000 in most live shows. The bass itself is either a custom Fender P-Bass or a heavily modified one. It's body is a silver sparkle and it has a black pickguard, most likely with either modified pickups, or stock ones (I'm not certain of either end of the debate.)
