Here's the cover art for her new live album. Never realized she played the bass. What's she playing, because it looks cool.

Guessing a DePinto based on the sparklies, wish I could see the headstock.
And yeah, I knew.
D'oh look at the knobs and bridge - it's a Gretsch!
D'oh D'oh I'm an idiot I mean Guild! hehe, got it right this time...

I guess I just have trouble keeping my focus on the bass in that pic. drool
I was in the know as well. As another female bassist I always try to keep up with what the ladies are doing on bass.
Yep that’s her trusty vintage guild. There was a recent cover of bassplayer magazine with details on her favorite bass. She also has a vintage P for recording .
She just lays down a solid foundation. No fancy chops or licks. But she gets the job done . Said she now writes on bass and prefers it to guitar .

i don't blame her --- it's so much easier than guitar. 
It's a Guild bass she's been using for a long time.
She's no Jaco, but she's as solid as a rock, as is her band. I sometimes envy a bassist who can just lay down the roots (My inner Phil Lesh always pops in for a visit).

She’s been been playing bass while fronting her band for years; for a season they had an entire back line of Kustom amps. Don’t know if those were merely visual props, though.

The M85 has the same pickup/electronics setup as a Starfire or a JS but with a Les Paul style body. Some of them were made semi hollow, most are solid. Some of the II's have a master volume knob (it's the small one visible in the first pic). Of course, there was a matching guitar model as well.

Yes, she started on guitar but started writing her music on bass after, I think 2005. There was an interview with her on one of her DVD's that I watched.
She's only played bass onstage for over 20 years
She puts on a great show too!
Only seen her once, but it was a pleasant surprise.
Didn't know what to expect going in, but am very glad I was there!
