mingsta Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 In no particular order, bassist who's playing has really inspired me: pino Bobby vega Mike visceglia Jerry Meehan Randy hope Taylor Stuart zender Stanley Clarke Flea Steve Harris James jamerson Flea and jamerson have been my greatest inspirations over the years. I don't really go out of my way to seek out or listen to good bass playing music, it's more a case of sometimes finding music that I love which happens to have some fantastic bass.
