Bass techniques on guitar

Bassists are often accused of being frustrated guitarists, but who here adapts ideas from bassists onto guitar?

Personally, Jaco Pastorius was the guy who initially inspired me to try fusion music, and I've copped a lot of his chord voicings (re. Portrait of Tracy) on guitar and keys.
I've appropriated a few tapping ideas from bassists as well (Wally Voss, Stu Hamm etc.).
As for slap technique, I'm actually better at slapping on guitar than bass, which is wierd, but go figure. I've also tried getting a similar sound with hybrid picking (great for spicing up rhythm parts).

Anyone else?
