Jason Momoa. There's a YouTube vid of him visiting with Les Claypool 

He's not a great player, but he's a big supporter of the bass "scene", and especially small custom luthiers.

 

Here's a nice pic of him with Marek from Stradi at the NAMM show the other week: 

 

As was mentioned, he's friends with Les Claypool, and has a custom Carl Thompson and a Pachyderm. He's also got multiple vintage Fenders.

Ha ha I know this Laurel and Hardy movie,it's hilarious. He's just pulling on the strings for comedic effect and clearly can't play but it's comedy gold regardless 🤣

Putter Smith, proper bass player. Taught the instruments, led albums, murdered people etc.

Plotting how to get my hands on the boss’s job? Not me mate, I’m just the bass player.

Not sure how that's an "unexpected" bass player. He totally looks like one of us

In one of the early scenes in Aquaman there's a bass guitar, I think it's supposed to be his screen dad's bass...the guy who plays Boba Fett , can't remember his name.

Anyway, not a lotta people know that.
