A bass is like any other instrument. It can be used to make a melody, harmonize, and you can even play solos with one (look up Cliff Burton or Flea if in doubt). The uses are only the limit of your imagination. Classical uses are for a type of basslines melody or to harmonize the rhythm lines but this isn't necessarily its only use.

What instrument can you play with the bass clef?

You can play any instrument with the bass clef. This is just a convention to write notes of certain height in the bass clef. You can play a piece on an instrument if their diapasons match.

Usually, pieces written for bass instruments (for example, electric bass guitar or double bass) are noted on the bass clef.
