Which Star Wars Characters Would play bass?

I betcha Darth Vader could lay some pretty mean licks! He would probably use a sub contra bass...To keep things sounding dark sided!
I think that Mace Windu could get kinda funky with it too!

I can dig it! I kinda saw him as more of lead guitarist myself.

What about Lando Calrisian or Boba Fett?!?

This whole thread reminds me of the song Chewbacca! (its on the clerks soundtrack, I've forgotten who its by). Also I could kind of see Jabba with a strange upright of his own.
