Metalisart's 5 favourite bassists
I want to learn electric bass one day, and my dream is a Rick 4001/4003.
5. Tom Hamilton - Aerosmith ![]() Just take Sweet Emotion, his signature song. The added bass marimba gives it a certain crunch. He seems a fun guy too. Favourite track: Sweet Emotion

4. Ian Kilmister (Motörhead)
![]() Also known as "Lemmy", or so I heard. ![]() He's not the most technical player and he's actually a guitarist, but he has a unique sound, made out of customized Rickenbackers (and Marshalls). They made a signature model, the 4004 LK: ![]() Would love to get one, but it was produced in VERY limited quantities. The word icon was invented for him. Favourite track: I Don't Believe A Word

3. John Paul Jones (Led Zeppelin)
![]() He influenced my number 5! What can I say? Not the most famous face of Zep, he gave the band a thunderous foundation. Favourite track: Good Times Bad Times

2. Geezer Butler (Black Sabbath)
![]() Should be an inspiration for any metalhead, as he was part of a certain band that created our beloved genre. Heavy, pumping bass lines, great stage performance. Did he play the parts on "Heaven & Hell"? I believe so... Favourite track: Iron Man

The last four are all great choices. Man, Lemmy's bass is sweet.

Number 5 is criminally underrated.
