Solution:

1. Fire bass player.

2. One guitarist learns to play bass.

3. Get things done.

In a couple of power trios I've been in I traded bass duties with the other guitarist on sets of songs.

Usually the bassist quits and goes to do something else and we finish practice with me on bass anyway so that might work, thanks.
