Just wondering how these ladies did it and so I gleaned this gear-related info from the Sleater-Kinney Wikipedia page. Thought about sharing it here:
Although Sleater-Kinney had no bass player, both Tucker and Brownstein tuned their guitars one and a half steps down (“C# tuning”), and Tucker’s tone and style enabled her to fill the same role as a bass guitar.
During The Woods era, Tucker used the following gear[10]:
Amplifier
- ’65 blackface Fender Showman
Guitars
- Worn Cherry Les Paul Special
- Danelectro Baritone (studio only)
- Danelectro DC-3 (previous albums/tours)
Effects
- DigiTech Whammy
- DOD EQ
- Electro-Harmonix Bass Synthesizer
- Schumann Electronics Lion X
- Vox Overdrive
