[32] Her first bass was a Fender Jazz Precision, which she purchased herself after saving up her allowance. [33] Haim prefers to play without a pick and rarely uses effects. [33] [14] Bass Magazine described her style as diverse, "which allows her to both play for the song and play for the bass, at all times". [34]
