your favorite bass player or players !!!!

who is your favorite or list a few you like and why do you like them. Their sound, their style so on....

thanks


Mine is by far Geddy Lee and in my mind no one touches him for perfect tone and talent all around he is amazing the more I listen to him on a nice system

John Myoung is also one of my favorites for TOTAL amazing talent and sound and style John is the balls!!!!! Just listen to any DT cd

I agree with you about Myung.

I also like Stu Hamm.

These guys take bass guitar to a different level.

BTW, here is a similar thread that might interest you.
A poll.

In the realm of rock, John Entwistle is the god of the bass. They don't call him Thunderfingers for nothing!

I think we may have already had this thread, but I could be wrong.

I like Chris Squire and Tony Levin.
