I have listened to the song and made sure that every note, mute, slide and bend is perfect. If you want to sound exactly like Flea, this is what you should play. On the second bar of each verse, hold the 12th fret on the G string for a bit longer than in the second bar. For the song to sound right, you’ll have to turn the bass up on your amp (and perhaps on your bass as well).
