Which Star Wars Characters Would play bass?

[flatwoundfender]

Is it me or did no one see the distinct family resemblance? Lando Calrissian is obviously Verdine White's great, great, great, great, great, great, great, great, great, great, great, great, great, great, great, grandson. Here is the proof:

Oops - you are so right... I updated the origninal post...

great topic!

Chewie, yeah he's a bassist at heart.

 

[Audiophage]

Yeah, but wouldn't he have a problem with all of the hair muting the strings?

Probably not. I'm not sure how it works, but I played perfectly with my fretting hand through the sleeve of a jacket so the hair wouldn't be much of a problem.

Chewie has to be the bass player. Personality-wise it works.

C'mon! Chewy has to be the drummer! Think of the Muppet Show and Animal! (Although Chewy does have the "co-pilot" bass player personality. Hmmm...)
I guess Lando is probably the bass player, although General Grievous would look good playing six Steinbergers simultaneously.
The lead guitarist? Obviously Jar Jar Binks!

I think Oby Wan Kenobi (just realized I have no idea how to spell his name) would be a bassplayer. He has the personality, his character is not the leading role but without him there just wouldn't be any story at all.

The first character that came to my mind was Lando, so my vote will have to go with Mr. Calrissian.

im thinking it'd be either darth vader or jaba. jaba fits the stereotype of a bassist- fat and lazy.

 

[TheJimster]

As I think about it here's how it would go -

Vocals - Leia
Lead Guitar - Obi- Wan (younger)
Guitar - Luke Skywalker
Bass - Darth Vader / Darth Maul (either or)
Turntables - General Grievous
Media/Sampling - Han Solo
Drums - Chewie or Yoda

Oh, I'm tempted to make that my avatar (look at my location)! If he were playing a Ritter I'd have to.

I submit Wedge...the thankless member of the Rebel Alliance who was in all three movies (the real ones), holding down the fort but getting none of the credit.
