Um, see the thing is... FLEA PLAYS BASS. Sure, he probably can play the guitar too (he's a mean trumpet player too, FYI) but he's not likely to play either at Coachella SINCE HE'LL BE BUSY PLAYING BASS.

1. Flea plays a bass guitar.
2. I never indicated that Flea would be playing anything but a bass guitar at Coachella.
3. Four strings, six strings, seven/ eight/ twelve strings. It's still a guitar. If members of Korn like to play seven string guitars, you don't kick them off a poll because you're a fucking snob who doesn't know a damn thing about instruments. You kick them off the poll because they haven't made a relevant sound in over a decade.
Why don't you guys pick up these instruments instead of trying to discuss what you clearly know jack shit about?
Well, I guess you really told us. Nice job!

Should I not explain from now on? Just call you all salty morons, and tell you that you will never behold the true secrets of life? I'm sure they know the basic differences and similarities between the instruments, but to say something that is called a bass guitar is not a guitar? That's slipping on your own banana peel in my book.

If rumors from this years NAMM convention are true (http://createdigitalmusic.com/2013/0...rt/#more-27554) and Adrien Belew is playing with How To Destroy Angels, then I nominate him.
I'ts like saying that jaco pastorius is a better guitarist than django reinhart..... it doesn't make sense, a bass guitar and a guitar are two completely different instruments with completely different techniques... Although you are correct on technicalities, you are not winning this argument. This thread clearly refers to regular guitars. We can start a best bass guitarist thread for coachella 2013 if you are really wanting to keep jacking off to flea

The new guitarist Josh Klinghoffer is the shit. No Frusciante, but he's badass.
lol @ "regular guitars." You seem to think you're some sort of legitimate authority on the matter. You're not. That you're arguing at all devalues your entire presence. For future reference: When you see adults having a discussion, you shut the fuck up and take note. Otherwise you're going to embarrass yourself, and I guarantee it.
You seem to think the original guitar had six strings. You seem to think that there is such thing as a "regular" guitar. A guitar is a guitar. There are definitely common standards when it comes to making instruments, but to say that this is more of a guitar, or a regular guitar, than that? Address unknown. No such number.
If Flea were to be a cellist, then you'd have a point. If Flea were known for playing the ukulele, then you'd be on the money. Flea is a bass guitarist. It doesn't matter what kind of guitar he plays. That you're a dumbass is the main concern here. That Stone Roses fanatics are dumbasses is the main concern here. There is no universe in which I am wrong. Just forget about it, dribbler. Save the thinking for people who get paid for it. You get paid to have a shovel/ broom/ spatula in your hand and look busy. Nvr chng! KIT BRAH!
