[[File:Paul McCartney live in Dublin.jpg|thumb|upright|Former [[The Beatles|Beatle]] [[Paul McCartney]] is a well-known bass guitarist, singer, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist.]] The following is a list of notable electric [[bass guitar]] players. The bass guitar is a [[stringed instrument]] played primarily with the [[finger]]s (either by plucking, slapping, popping, or tapping) or using a [[plectrum|pick]]. Since the 1950s, the electric bass guitar has largely replaced the [[double bass]] in [[popular music]]. Bass guitarists provide the low-pitched [[bassline]]s and [[bass run]]s in many different styles of music ranging from [[rock music|rock]] and [[heavy metal music|metal]] to [[blues]] and [[jazz]]. Bassists also use the bass guitar as a soloing instrument in [[jazz]], [[Jazz fusion|fusion]], [[Latin music (genre)|Latin]], [[funk]], and in some [[Rock music|rock]] styles. Musicians known mainly as [[guitar]]ists are listed separately in the [[list of guitarists]].

For [[double bass]] players, see [[List of classical double bass players]]; [[List of jazz bassists]], which includes both double bass and electric bass players; and [[List of double bassists in popular music]], which includes blues, folk, country, etc.

For females, see [[List of female bass guitarists]]
