Rig Rundown: The Breeders

For nearly 30 years, these alt-rock pioneers have created gristly tones full of attitude and angst. Find out how guitarist Kelley Deal and bassist Josephine Wiggs craft their signature tones.

For a change of pace, Josephine Wiggs sometimes goes with her 2011 Fender Jaguar bass also strung up with Ernie Ball strings. Wiggs uses Dunlop .88 mm picks.
