Which bassist has your favorite tone. My personal favorite is probably Matt Malley of Counting Crows. I thought his tone on This Desert Life was amazing. So who's tone do you want? |

I did always think he was a tad underrated.

Ricky:Mke Rutherford, McCarsomething(Kinda unknown, but I like him), Geddy Lee and Roger Glover.
J-Bass: Frank Bello and JPJ.
