Never heard of a Flea jazz...
His signature model is the Modulus Flea bass.

He calls it his 'punk rock' bass, due to all the stickers

And yeah he does use GK heads and cabs

Modulus Flea Bass with Lane Poor pickup, Aguilar OBP-1 2 band EQ pre-amp. It has three stripes, Red, White, and Blue, Flea has placed many decals of Punk bands and thus calls it his Punk Bass. His Heads are 5 GK 2001RBs his cabs are 410 and 115 RBHs. He uses a Brooks Siren DI, MXR Microamp, E-H Q-tron, and a Boss OD1 Bass Overdrive.
