Don't Fear the Reaper is good if you can get the notes clear enough. Lots of fast arrpegios in that riff.

BTO's 'Gimme Your Money Please', and 'Stayed Awake All Night' are verry cool guitar lines to transfer to bass. Sme with 'American Woman' and 'No Time' by the Guess Who.

Can anyone tell I like Randy Bachman. I hope it doesn't show to much. LOL!

Also, a lot of blues lines that are mainly known as guitar riffs (John Lee Hooker's 'Boom Boom' for example).

I wouldn't count that one. Although a cool line, I think the OP is looking for guitar specific parts to play on bass, not guitar parts doubled on bass as part of the song.
