Alot of good bassists out there, But I'm suprised no one has mentioned Stu Hamm who plays with Satriani a great deal. (The Solo for G3 is unreal) or Jaco P.
Billy Sheene, and most anyone who's played on the Sharpnal Lable can play circles around some of the guys up already. Les is great, flea is very good, but guys like Gio form toast machine can play thier stuff note for note. What I'm trying to say, is they are not the only people who are skilled on the BASS!

camron undy, ray brown, charles mingus,

rock bass does not stand up to jazz bass at all - my favourite rock bassists would be john entwistle and john paul jones
