Who to you are important Bass and Guitar combos where they were increadibly complimentary with each other rather than one in a totally supportive role.
I'm thinking the likes of...
Andy Rourke & Johnny Marr (The Smiths)
Bernard Edwards & Nile Rogers (Chic, production etc)
Duck Dunn & Steve Cropper (Stax Records)

Weller and Foxton? |

| Eat'em and Smile has perhaps the most daring guitar+bass stunts ever recorded.

Oh, and Sheehan/Vai. EPIC win. |
