Here's another:

If you go to
www.google.com and simply type in
"bass transcriptions" you should get a few hits. You will get a lot of sites selling sheet music, but there should be a few that have free, personally transcribe scores, charts and bass lines. One hint is to also click on the "image" search. Some people will scan their sheet music and save it as a jpeg.
You can try changing "bass transcriptions" around a bit and get more specific to what your looking for. Also, try putting "+.pdf" at the end your search. .pdf is the file extension to an Adobe Acrobat file which is the format most people will use.
There is one other way of searching on google (index search) that is more effective, but I'm not sure if it should be posted here. If a mod thinks it's okay I can post it, or do it via PM. You could always go to youtube and type in "google tricks" and find what I'm talking about.
You never really mentioned if there was anything specific you were looking for, but most of what I could find was Jazz and Classical, although I really didn't try searching for anything specific. I think anything popular or new would not be found online. If you simply want to learn to read and get your hands on any type of sheet music the Lucas Pickford and arcellussykes sites should keep you busy.
