well, I don't listen to punk, but I'd have to say Paul Simonon of the Clash.

Paul Simonon of the Clash has been mentioned, I'll agree to that. I know I'm going to get some opposition on this one, but I like Adam Clayton of U2. U2 was really punkish, back before they got big, and I liked Adam Clayton's stuff.

mxpx are cool
rancid are well...rancid
sex pistols, sid rocked
but the newest is Greenday.
listen to Mike Drint on the new songs and hear the bass he bashes out. if thats not punk enough try their old stuff, way back in the dookie and kerplunk and even 1039 SOSH days.
later

Sid couldn't even play. All the studio stuff was stuff glen matlot left recorded, or the guitarist would do the bass. I got this live dvd of the sex pistals in the states, and they turned his amp off cause he was just plain ****.

Mike Watt, Karl Alvarez and Matt Freeman for sure. But another great "pop-punk" bassist was Bob Thompson from Big Drill Car.. he had as big an influence on my playing as anyone.

I second Mike Dirnt. I liked his older basslines better, though. Greg K from the Offspring has some pretty cool lines, too, even though the Offspring are just borderline punk.
