Scott Thunes, Bobby Vega, Felix Pappalardi.  I'm sure a complete list of pick players who aren't punk rockers could get fairly long. 
It's not those who write the laws that have the greatest impact on society.  It's those who write the songs.

Especially if you include players who can switch back and forth at times...  JPJ and Sting both come to mind.

Like me, of course ;-D
Basses: Gibson lpb-1, Gibson dc jr tribute, Greco thunderbird, Danelectro dc, Ibanez blazer.  Amps: genz benz shuttle 6.0, EA CXL110, EA CXL112, Spark 40.  Guitars: Danelectro 59XT, rebuilt cheap LP copy

John Wetton (post-Crimson), Tony Levin (sometimes), Michael Anthony (sometimes), Greg Lake...

I'm about 60/40 pick VS fingers.

I "discovered" flats in the early 2000s when I was recording at a studio owned by a session bass player/jingle guy. He saw my Ric and mentioned how much he loves the way they sound with flats. Gave it a try and loved it. Great for certain things, especially with a pick. I'll always be a round wound guy, but I currently have 2 of my basses strung with flats. Ironically, they're my Chris Squire Ric and Geddy Lee Jazz.  :o

The PC has never had anything but Roto rounds and were on her when I got her... the Hohner Jack has the same, double-ball-end variant... but is in the planning to go fretless too...
The fretless RD and the fretless Jazz have Roto flats...
TI's are being tried on the 5 string fretless EAB, but as there is a neck defect that needs a block I need to make to resolve (ta for tip, Carlo) so is just not being used...
So many projects... so little time...  :o
The random mind of a Silver Surfer...
If research was easy, it wouldn't need doing...
Staring at that event horizon is a dirty job, but someone has to do it; something's going to come back out of it one day...

I'm guessing early 90s with the chrome top battery box.
Bingo. 1991
