???? Red Hot Chili Peppers - 'Mellowship Slinky' (Bass Cover) ????

Ready to dive into some classic Red Hot Chili Peppers? This track, from their iconic album Blood Sugar Sex Magik, showcases Flea's transition to more laid-back fingerstyle funk grooves, moving away from his signature aggressive slap bass lines.

The bassline features a wicked fingerstyle groove that arpeggiates a B7 chord across all four strings, along with some killer unison riffs that are played with the guitar. The swung sixteenth note feel adds a funky twist, making it a fun and challenging piece to get your teeth into.

???? Gear Used:
• Bass: GB Guitars Spitfire Bass (Played HARD!)
• Strings: Rotosound stainless steel (.040, .060, .080, .100)
• Recording: Tech21 SansAmp Bass Driver DI
