Mile rutherford and daryl sturmer of Genesis swap between guitar and bass when playing live, both pretty good.

And who can forget the guys from spinal tap when playing their classic hit, big bottom!

Hamish Stuart formerly of Paul McCartney's band and Average White Band is great on both. He's a great singer too.

ROFL - Keef recorded a lot of the Stones' bass ... Bill got relegated to maracas or something, why do you think he left? ...

Id have to go with prince. Haven't listened to it in a while but I remember his bass playing on lady cab driver being particularly funky, & I'm sure many have already seen the greatest guitar solo of all time clip

I've heard that Joe Osborne, in addition to be an outstanding and influential bassist, was a great guitar player too.

Mitch Watkins is great on both.
Mitch plays with (among many others) Bob Schneider, Lyle Lovett, and
Paul Glasse.
The late Lenny Breau was brilliant on both, too.

I can't think of anyone who is a master at both. But for being great on both acoustic guitar and electric guitar and recognized as such is Richard Thompson.

Terry Kath played a lot of the more involved Chicago bass parts.
(Not to dis Cetera, I think it was for expedience's sake.)

though not a master, Lenny Kravitz plays both. Sheryl Crow falls into the same category( for me).

Lonnie Mack was a pretty decent bass player; I know I've seen him credited on bass on an album here and there.
