Macca is a hell of a bassist. Can't believe he hasn't been mentioned yet.

Also, John Wetton, Ron Carter, and Stanley Clarke (granted I'm not crazy about Return to Forever, he's really fucking awesome.)

I agree with a lot of choices in this thread, so I'm not going to repeat anything.

No big shock but

 


Mike Watt's playing embodies both the qualities of the bass as melody anchor and as an involved instrument in its own right. He makes the whole song sound good which should be the point of the instrument.

Four pages of conversation about bass and no-one's pointed out that it's not even a real instrument? Shame on you, SYG.

How is the bass "not a real instrument"? I purchased one several years ago and it lives at my rehearsal space...... Without question I can say that it exists.......

anyone that plays slap bass is automatically a shitty bassist. I hate that shit. By far the most played out style. It had limited potential to begin with.
