actually guys, it may seem like there is bass in the intro. John is just hitting the lower strings on the acoustic guitar. I saw a video too of the song being played live. Flea is not playing (talking to anthony actually)

I thought you slap those muted notes to get a percussion effect, you have a P under a few of them. How do you pop a muted note?

speed lover... im pretty sure that your reading the tab wrong maybe... all the slaps and pops in his tab are writen on the top of each bar... the Pops you are seeing on the muted notes only appear if you read the bottom symbols for the bar above them ... if that makes scence to you?

Adam- You are right. I am used to the P and the S written on the bottom.
Danny- perhaps spacing out your tab more to make it more clear would help, it is kind of one giant blob for me and was difficult to understand at first. It is however a very good tab so I give you props for that.

This song kicks ass. The RHCP kick ass. Flea kicks ass. And anyone who can tab out the speed at which Flea plays this song is kick ass.

Yeah there isnt any intro for the bass. Its all guitar, but me and my band play it and it sounds good with the bass playing the intro too.
