Well I don't hear the tone in the Californication album, but in live performances i do.. esp recently (again, using his modulus bass). here's an example of him doing a solo (it was clean at first) and youll really hear and notice the tone that I'm talking about :D...

Very informative, but the tone I am looking for is that distinct one that comes from his Modulus bases, I wonder what makes them sound so..? Again, aside from the low action, heavy attack and fret buzz :p The tight yet scooped-sounding buzzy almost overdriven tone.. You know what I mean :smug...

I think so, but during the tour he used the sunburst Modulus alot :D

What makes a bass sound like Flea's tone? I'm talking about his tone since Stadium Arcadium - I'm With You not only on their albums, but also and most specially during live.. I would describe the tone as punchy, tight, rattly, slightly overdriven, scooped, exploding, aggressive, gritty with alot...
