Lots of great P'ers past and present. But this guy probably inspired me the most.

George Porter Jr.

I was gonna say Jamerson and Pino and Freddie Washington but... Nobody makes me wanna grab a P Bass more than Paul Simonon actually. I can’t see the cover of London Calling and not wanna play my Precision really loud.

 

[The Deep]

Wow....”Pops” Popwell wore that bass a bit high eh?

It’s like the bass body is the amulet of a necklace!
