Hi Wykle:

Try listening to some Stevie Ray Vaughn!. Tommy Shannon, Stevie's old bass player is a great bassist to learn from!. Blues in general is a great pre-requisite for any type of rock music!. Lot of fundamental basics, as well as some great walking bass lines up and down the scale that will apply in all genre's of music!. Plus, the tempo in blues is not so fast that you cant hear whats going on in the music!. That makes it a lot easier if your playing along with it!.

Note: Might have to tune down 1/2 step for most of Stevie's music!.

Hope this has helped, and KEEP PLAYIN!Www@QuestionHome@Com

Most bass guitars are most primarily heard in the intro of a song, but then the lead guitar basically drowns it out until the end of the song!.

Try the intro to Enter Sandman by Metallica, even though it's in a standard guitar, it can be played in bass!. also, "Fake It" by Seether, and "Animal I've Become" by Three Days Grace have really good basslines!. Www@QuestionHome@Com

yea i agree with the white stripes!. also, theres money from pink floyd, which is super fun to play cuz its so good!. Theres also, uhh, hey joe by jimi hendrix and theres, like even if u said no chilli peppers, theres dani claifronia which aint to hardWww@QuestionHome@Com

you should try some white stripes, there is no actual bass player but jack still plays some bass lines
you could also try white riot by the clash, i think it may be a little hard, but it supposed to be really cool
also the ramones are probably pretty easyWww@QuestionHome@Com
