I'm the bassplayer/lead singer in a rock band. Thought this would be a good way to introduce myself and find some bassists I don't know about.I'll start with one of my favorites, Gene Simmons. Rock on!  |

My favorites are:
Paul McCartney
Jack Bruce
Timothy B Schmit
Sting
Geddy Lee
Phil Lynott

| | | | Paul McCartney. He's arguably the most successful musician in the world, but I still think he's terribly underrated. Amazing tone no matter what bass he uses, and his bass lines and lyrics are pure genius.
