Wata

Wata has used a DS-1 throughout her time in Boris. The cream colored knobs suggest that it might be modified.

“My main guitar is an '86 black Gibson Les Paul Custom."

“The bridge pickup is a Seymour Duncan JB, and the neck pickup is a Seymour Duncan '59. The tuning is three steps below standard with string gauges of 0.11, 0.16, 0.26, 0.36, 0.46, 0.60."

The quotes above are from this article: https://www.musicradar.com/news/rig-tour-boris

One of the many Oranges that Wata has used during her time with Boris.

"Right now I used the Roland Space Echo RE-150 and also a copy of the Electro-Harmonix Big Muff, which is actually called Elk. It’s a Japanese brand. You can’t really recreate the same sound; it’s very distinctive. They connect everything together to create an automated sound. For me they’re like instruments within themselves. I like my Elk pedal best because it’s dynamic yet makes these really rough sounds."

Both guitarists in Boris use Seymour Duncan pickups; a JB in the bridge position, and a '59 in the neck position. (The following is translated from Japanese) "JB (bridge) is located on the bottom left with... '59 (neck) ~. T [bassist/guitarist Takeshi]"

Per this August 2017 interview, Wata's "main amp is a Matamp GT120." It can be seen to the right of the main cabinet stack, partially hidden behind a white projector.
