I know Flea uses GK equipment. I want to know how long has he been using it, and did he ever use anything else? |

His config was (from memory so may not be accurate) 3 GK RB-1001-IIs with two setup as slave power amps to the other one. This then ran into three stacks consisting of each 1 Mesa 2x10 and 1 Mesa 2x15. He switched to GK cabs too eventually, not sure when exactly.

Think he switched when touring for "By The Way". He doesn't mike 'em live anyway, so not much difference.  |

He was using a Furman preamp, a Yamaha power amp with a huge Gause Bass ported bass bin and 2X12 on top. MM Stingray and a MM Cutlas. They were the opening act.
