Chad is the only drummer able to keeep up with Flea :), From 3:57 to 5:00 You can see chad lookin at Flea thinking how fast do you wana go man and then the real funk starts at 5:05 could make a flea and chad funk album just by jams like this 1 :) long live the red hot chili peppers !!
@nickrockinere In Scar Tissue, Anthony makes a huge deal of it being the other way around during the audition for Jack Irons' replacement... Flea had to keep up with Chad!
i fucking love flea the red hot chili peppers and all the music they have made, but beginner bassists need to stop trying to model themselves around his playing, there are too many people i know who can slap okayish, but cant keep a rhythm or fret properly :L
@havokewf90 The difference between Flea and every average bass player that tries to be like him is only one: the timing. Flea's timing is almost always perfect, a real machine. On Youtube you can find thousand of that kind bass player, and no one is perfect as Flea on keeping time.
@peedy1977 The bass in this video is a Music Man Stingray, but he now has his own line of basses called Flea Bass, which he plays. They look a lot like Stingrays but sound like shit in my opinion.
who cares about the pedal? Its the talent behind the equipment that counts . Many people use the equipment as crutches, that is obviously not the case here. Just sit back and enjoy, maybe you will learn something : }
@MitchBass95 Yes, it's a Fx Pedal, Fx is not a effect, it's a Multi Pedal, in Fx Pedals are several effects inside (Phaser, Flanger......) XtuurX mean the effect.
@SFONBassist Don't argue with me on this, i own the pedal and know what i'm talking about.
If you read my first comment I clearly stated that "its an envelope filter, kind of like an automatic wah pedal". The Effect is called 'Envelope Filter' not 'Bass Synthesizer'. I also stated in my first comment, and then again in my second comment, the name of the particular model of Envelope Filter Flea uses in the video, the DOD FX25.
The FX25 is not a multi pedal or any other then an envelope pedal.
@giak24 this must be one of the first basses flea ever had. I saw an old live video of the peppers with slovak on guitar and flea had this same bass. The fleabasses were made afterwards
