This often varies according to the musical genre—very few funk bassists use plectrums, while they are widely found in punk rock and metal styles.
James Jamerson, one of the most influential bassists during the Motown era, was well-known for his work in many popular Motown songs and is widely considered one of the greatest, most musical bassists of all time.
Other bassists that have moved the bass forward in their participation and role in music include Les Claypool and Marcus Miller, who have in turn inspired a promising stable of talented bassists who are even able to sing and play bass simultaneously.
