You mean speed-wise? Or do you mean technique/style-wise, or all of the above? In your own opinion, that is.

It's not opinion.

Wooten is actually far more skilled in every area.

Speed and technique, in fact, not opinion.

Style is a matter of taste.

I like Gene Simmons.

If it's an electric bass, it looks just like an average guitar, but has 4 large strings instead of 6.

If it's a double/stand up bass, it looks like a giant cello/viola/violin you play while standing up.
