try a chorder - but only once in track - about four notes should do it
and only on simple bass line

so as a general rule the kick drum and bass should be mono tracks and everything else can be stereo?

really you can do anything you like, depends on your genre. I still like the 60's accidental stereo with the band in one side and some vocalists with an acoustic in the other .
using this technique can still produce nice results for the livingroom listener.

but if you try this with anthing destined to come out of a big rig there will be people thinking the bass amps have blown on one stack!

Two basslines can be very funny!
Listen to the track "kill bill vol.4" from modeselektor.
Killer stereo bassline!
