Man, pay to mind to those people who say "Oh, you CAN'T play it like That! It's a BASS!" Music IS art! Art is FREEDOM! Keep on doing what you're doing! Sounds good to me, and I've been playing bass for twenty years. BTW, it's not a 'Flea' bass, as Michael Balzary (think that's speldt write) has played several different basses. It's a Stingray. Period.
man too much distortion bro sounds like your doin a guitar solo! but still, you got some sick skills! i wanna integrate that sorta playing and speed slapping, what sorta pedal would i need for somethin like this sound?
@BMFrank5 Thanks. Go to your local music shop and try out distortion pedals. Dont just limit yourself to bass overdrive/distortion pedals. Try out some guitar ones too. Try out a metal distortion by boss or digitech.
@dropless2002 will do, i have a zoom multi effect pedal but it doesnt really give me the exact tone i wanted from my bass, ill definetly try out a metal distortion pedal
Man, you're pro, just too much distorsion, sounds like guitar, not bass

For about 10 seconds I was thinking, "Damn, I wish that backing guitar track wasn't so loud, I can't hear the bass!" Then I realized... :P

@Equipe3v It is a Flea Bass. I think they now sell them as Funk Unlimited Bass.

@dropless2002 Awesome, you hardly see them about anymore. I'm heavily influenced by flea, so i love seeing the modulus basses flying around youtube!
