Ola Flink from soilwork shreds.
Victor Wooten should be another given.
The bass player from AoP is pretty good.
Howard is THE WORST bass player ever. He doesn't move at all on stage, he always uses a pick, and he plays so slow. - Sun, 9 Feb 2003 2:21pm

Anonymous You all probably don't know him, but Jeff Pinkus, used to play with the Buttholes, circa Widowermaker EP, now he's playing with Honky, down in Texas... smokes. And he's a super cool guy.

Matt D. Rob Wright truly inspires awe.
Les Claypool from Primus is also amazing.
Taking a trip back in time when these dudes were alive.... Jaco Pastorius (sp?) and Charles Mingus (great bassist, also had a bad-ass attitude). - Sun, 9 Feb 2003 3:19pm
