In no particular order:

Geezer Butler
Grant Hart
Lemmy Kilminster
Les Claypool
Jaco Pastorius
Wata (Boris)
Bootsy Collins

Some of them are really technically proficient, some of them aren't but they make up for it by having an original style.

Paul McCartney is my favorite. Billy Cox (Jimi Hendrix's Band of Gypsys) and Tina Weymouth of Talking Heads are awesome too.
