It's preference, I realise that Geddy is better than all the bassists I listed on a technical level (except Levin), but I dunno, there are just several bassists that click with me better than Geddy does.

But if it makes you feel any better.

11. Geddy Lee

I really couldn't do a list of who I consider the most skilled bassists, way too tough to call, but I think that these guys are more skilled than Lee, at least.

Victor Wooten
Stu Hamm
Billy Sheenan
Jaco Pastorius
Michael Manring
Stanley Clark
Tony Levin
Dave LaRue
John Patitucci
Gary Willis

Though Levin aside, I prefer Lee over all of them.
