There are some...

Back in the day, there was Carole Kaye, who played on quite a few hits in the '60s and '70s.

More recently, Tal Wilkenfeld has apparently been touring with Jeff Beck and getting some attention.

Jeff Beck with Female Bassist 7/28/2007

I did a search here at TalkBass for "Female Bassists" and got quite a few hits.

Sorry. No other girls play the bass. You're the only one.

There are a few female bass players here at Talkbass. Stick around awhile, and you'll figure it out.

Check out the gal currently playing bass with Adrian Belew, She is very young, a fantastic player, and very approachable. Don't know her name, but I bet if you contact her she would be a good person to throw ideas around with.

I'm not a girl anymore. In Texas, when we get to this age, they call us "gals". Too rowdy to be a "ladies", too cute to be "mee-maws". Gals. That's what they call us when we grow out of "lil gurl".

I play a Waterstone, and an Ibanez, and an acoustic Avondale.
