what amp settings did kristen pfaff use?

From albums, it sounds to me like most of her tone is centered around using a Precision bass going direct to the recording console.
Your practice amp is only going to get you so far. Start with the tone knobs set at noon and make small adjustments to one at a time until you understand what they do and what sounds best.
