anyone know any solo bassists who do a lot of acoustic work. I've recently developed a love for acoustic bass.

that's an artist from Montreal, an awesome Jazz Musician:
Norman Lachapelle - the Myspace is all in french, but he got such a musicality and a great Acoustic Fretless Organic tone.. i usually hate fretless tone.. be he's such a great player... his solo are so melodic!

i've wrote down a couple of his solos and songs.. a great way to learn how he is thinking musically..
if you can find "436", one of his solo songs.. that's great great stuff...

Alain Caron has a solo record called "Conversations" in which he plays acoustic bass guitar in a duo setting. (piano & bass, vibes & bass etc). It's a jazz record.

Jonas Hellborg has been playing acoustic bass guitar quite exclusively these days. There is an album called "Aram of the Two Rivers" and it's basically "Middle Eastern Jazz". Again not solo bass, but there's plenty of up-front bass with solos.
