Paul McCartney. He also played lead guitar better than George Harrison.

I think the guy from Lightning Bolt plays a bass that way

this is a solo album by juan from the mars volta

lots of guitar on there too, but still pretty unique. like lightning bolt mixed with dub and funk. really cool use of effects too

also here's a live video I just stumbled across, feat. omar:

Peter Hook's playing is nothing like a guitarist's. In fact he mostly played really simple stuff with a few easy chords sprinkled in.

Heres better examples, though not very lead-y:

Also Geezer Butler did some cool soleish fills if that counts

His work in King Crimson is some of my favorite bass playing ever. He was an absolute monster.
