We have a rhythm guitarist who is also the founder of the group, a drummer who is still learning, and then our bassist. Our bass player is a jerk.
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.
