It took a long time to find a site for finding musicians that truly is free. I kept encountering the bait and switch where it's "free" to sign up but as soon as you want to actually message another musician, they ask for payment. Not cool. I love musiciansconnect.net because it works as promised... 100% free. There are ads but that is not a problem for me. I've already found a bass player on the site. Now I just need a drummer.
