Rig Rundown: Red Hot Chili Peppers [2017]

See how the extensive live setups used by Flea and Josh Klinghoffer have morphed since their 2012 I'm with You tour.

In the nearly five years since our previous Rig Rundown with Flea, the 4-string Renaissance man’s stomp station has hardly changed: Back then it had just four pedals, and today it’s got five—three of which are the same models as before. In addition to the MXR Micro Amp, Electro-Harmonix Q-Tron, and Malekko B:Assmaster mainstays (the latter of which now has a box preventing accidental knob changes), Flea’s current board has a Boss GEB-7 equalizer and a Wilson Effects Freaker wah. A Voodoo Lab Pedal Power 2 Plus provides volts and amps, and a Radial Engineering SGI-44 gets the signal from Flea’s wireless receiver (not shown) to his pedalboard.
