Richard Bona also played guitar! Piano! And probably a bunch other I don't even know of.

But Anthony Jackson is really versatile.

I'd also put one in for Levin and Kai Kurosawa.

I would like everyone here to completely disregard the first sentence in this post.

Is this about multi-instrumentalists or (bass) players who can master different music genres? Or both?

- If the latter, I'd say any bassist that can play Zorn's Naked City live.
- Or: How good was Zappa's bass playing?
Otherwise:
- Tony Levin
- Eric Langlois (of Cryptopsy)

But... this thread has given my metal molten brains some new names to check. Thank you!

Hmmm...........I gotta go with Scott Ambush of Spyro Gyra! Listen to any Spyro Gyra record from 1991-Present! He does it all! Even Zydeco style on 'Breakfast At Igors'! Amazing bassline!
