flea is really good, and in my opinion (as a bassist myself) is the best but should not be with the chilli peppers. Their singer cant sing for crap. (if you want to argue, listen to them live first)

Flea from the Red Hot Chili Peppers...Les Claypool isn't bad either, or Cliff Burton from Mettalica.

Imo, Geddy Lee from Rush; he's multi-talented w/ instruments (sings, bassist, keyboardist).

Personally, I think it's Martin...Can't remember if it was Mendez or Lopez, from Opeth. Or was it Peter Lindgren who was the bass guitarist...

I'd say Johnny Christ from A7x is one of the best bass players out there, though i dunno if any one person is the best.
