slappa da bass
All I'm earing is my E string hitting the 24th fret (with an Ibanez sr400)
yes I could rise the volume of the amp but still … 🙁
I dont play the bass, but if i did, i would defiantly take notes from Flea…
I say you can do it my way
Or the Flea way.????
I like the Flea way better
When he drives, he drives on the Fleaway…
Low action …
So many clothes on!!!
Holy shit! ???? ????

2. Practice.
3. PRACTICE
Bosh
One of the videos that got me into playing bass. ????
I’ll never forgive him for getting Marty McFly Sr. fired.
Having him explain this shows how damn good he is. Such a great teacher “comfort and strength” ????❤????
One of the best bassist ever!! Flea, Flea!!!!
Flea in his prime was great. As he got older he’s starting to come down now but that’s alright. He’s a legendary musician.
Dude was 60 years old and did a walking handstand all the way across the stage and then stood up and started shredding the bass!
???? Thats what happen when Mister Flea gets ta slappin'. ????
Right after the very first RHCP record came out (the Andy Gill record). We saw them in a tiny club – an early iteration of the 40 W club in Athens Georgia. Long before all the fame. After the original 40 watt – a single bulb room – above a sandwich shop – with a single 40 W bulb.
This was back in the days of Baby Appeal and etc. Maybe two dozen of us in the club. I was on the front row. Hit by all the sweat! Flea was AMAZING. We were all music fans and for real players. But the raw funk from that iteration of RHCP – the first and best IMHO – were amazing. We were all blown away. How many strings did Flea break???!! And he and all the rest of band were “best show ever.”
When you're slapping also don't angle your thumb downwards cause it makes double thumbing way harder than it needs to be
Entertaining ????????????????
Flee to this day refuses to admit how Norwood Fisher is the one that taught him shit like that. Fuck flee
I learned this technique in the early 90’s from going to neo funk shows. Lookin back I’m bummed I quit playing bass to make beats????
Last seconds of this video are the best…
