Logan Hernandez
Asher Lee
Gonna throw a punk bassist in. Roger Lima of Less than Jake. He's fuckin fast and his lines are way more complicated than they have to be.
Jeremiah Rodriguez
Fuck yeah
Alexander Clark
robert trujillo is crazy fast too
just as good as cliff if not better imo
Gavin Gomez
Mark sandman of Morphine. Claypool himself is a fan and called it out at shows.
Dylan Stewart

Julian Allen
>playing with a pick
fucking faggot
Angel Richardson
Morphine was the best live show. Sandman was awesome to watch. got to see them over a dozen times, each show was great. Not sure if 3-string slide bass is remotely as technical as some of these guys can play, but fantastic showman, great tunes. real loss.
Carson Wright

Evan Nguyen

Alexander Morris
second. Victor Wooten hands down. watched him once transition from The Nutcracker Suite into the theme song from Giligans Island while playing two basses simultaneously.
Ian Howard
Roger Waters Pink Floyd
Easton Butler
meh for a different sound its nice (punk and metal)
I like playing with fingers tho
Brandon Howard
Yeah he was before my time. I'm 31 now and only looked em up cuz Claypool plugged them. Morphine is all feeling (makes sense Haha) technical prowess be dammed cuz it all sounds great. Cure for pain is incredible.
Nathan Peterson

Jason Lopez
James Mattis.
Sec of Def
Evan Anderson
ehhh yeah I remember playing that song on rock band a billion years ago, it was fun, but Jesus is that song stupid self indulgence, fucking seven minutes of the dumbest lyrics. its literally just a medical description of an actual panic attack. we get it writer and lead singer of dream theater, you had panic attacks as a kid or something, dealing with adversity via music blah blah.
SCRRRECH those are the 'hey this is a fun song' trains breaks hover heating from all the shit on the track.
Mason Richardson
Isn't he the singer for Pantera?
Alexander Gutierrez

Juan Clark

Anthony Morgan
>not posting Alex Webster
Truly shows how shitty you bassists are
Blake Kelly
What about Jean-Yves Thériault from Voivod.. I think he did alot for metal
Juan Flores
Cure for pain is such a great album. Check out Soul Coughing too if you like Morphine. Different for sure, but really solid and goes great with Morphine
Isaiah Miller
Miller is da man.
Michael Taylor
I was actually just kidding.
Lincoln Phillips

>/thread
Such a self-centered thing to say.
"My post is so definitive that no one else need bother posting anything further. The thread is over."
That said, Mr. Wooten *is* a damn talented bass player.
We just didn't need the "/thread".
:-)
Ian Richardson
A man cuts in half just like he snaps a pencil.
David Green
well a lot of bass players think finger is the one and only technique so..
Benjamin Ross
Geezer Butler, Chris Squire, Geddy Lee, Flea, and the master of all, Les Claypool.
Matthew Ward
Haha 311 is the shit. They're not really a GOOD band but they nor I really give a shit. When I say they're not good I just mean nobody is gonna claim their guitarist or bassist are the best ever but I do dig the 311 sound.
Connor Price

David Thomas

Adam Davis
F ;-;
Thomas Rogers
Too many knobs and switches on that bass!
Jacob Mitchell
I think Trujillo is the most technically proficient bassist they've had. Obviously, Cliff was a supremely more gifted songwriter though. Jason fit the band the best in my opinion as far as personality and stage presence. What I'm trying to say is METALLICA IS WHITE DAMN IT!
Logan Russell
Phil Lesh 10/10.
Will add Jack Bruce 'cause I don't think I saw him yet.
Jeremiah Ross
Haha shut the fuck up retard you don't know shit. You're entitled to your opinion of his playing but to say he contributed nothing to Metallica just shows what a mouth breathing fucking retard you are. He wrote a lot of the more melodic parts in the first three albums. Do yourself a favor next time you want to be a special snowflake about your musical taste do a little research before you start talking.
Gavin Parker
Is Chicago? is not chicago
I used to follow M. Doughty's blog (a LONG LONG time ago) and he explained the meaning behind that song. pretty funny stuff
David Parker
How the fuck are you guys leaving out
Henry Evans
And he wrote some part on To Live is to die in justice for all

Adrian Brooks
One pill makes you smarter....
Xavier Evans
He fuckwad read the thread, He's already been mentioned
Matthew Bell
Newsted was there for the second best of Metallica. Cliff was there for the first. Too bad they fell off when he joined.
Jason Mitchell
Ohh man that sucks... fortunately saw them twice before he tipped over.. Sad
Josiah Gomez
Something about the sound of a full bass should be respected too.
Blake Jackson
agreed
Juan Barnes
You can't not at least respect BNL they're just good down home canadian boys I tells ya.
Aiden Young
Careful what you post, trumps presidency is hammering the internet traineddog.club
Dylan Cook
I would have paid anything to see them with Moon!! My favorite drummer of all time!!
Owen Taylor
Indeed...which made me think of this guy... another one gone too soon
Joshua Young
You're right, I stopped listening to Primus a long time ago and didn't recognize him older. I should have recognized the bass tho.
Also, suck a fucking dick faggot.
Christian Myers

Ryan Morris
RIP
Wyatt Powell
This. Just no threading your own thread newfagjr
Brandon Morris
Speaking of stopping listening to primus I kind of stopped when they got too slow and psychedelic. I miss the chunky primus sound like on suck on this to anti pop. Still love em but I wish hed go apeshit on the bass again.
Hudson Mitchell
Well since you've clearly drained all the balls in this thread with you faggotry top skill dick sucking, ok.
Ryder Clark
Michael "flea" Balzary from the red hot chili peppers, the only one other than Anthony that has been their since they first made the band in high school.
