Bass solo GUY NSANGUE sur Mouna Bowa (Live JL PONTY)

[Pottergoggles]

"Tchokola" is 20 years old and still sounds new. And Nsangue owns it.

[jamesedwardtheobald]

one of my favorite bassists! managed to step out of the shadows of jaco and marcus and jamerson!

[lorioftheforest]

Its so awesome..

[gringochucha]

It was a joy to see this guy playing with Jean Luc Ponty. An inspiring musician.

[misterpink71]

THIS BASS IS AN ARIA PRO 2 NOT AN ESP !!!

[bestech10]

Ce nest pas facile davouer son appartenance au Cameroun quand on voit comment BIYA et son equipe dirige notre pays , il faut le talent dun GUY NSANGUE pour me redonner ma fierte Camerounaise.

[arnoklephoque]

That's a true bass solo ; not like this technical crap that sounds like pigs being raped.

He's actually playing bass, and not an "under-guitar"

[fryBASS]

awesome!!!

[SmakitNicely]

I wish I could locate an ESP bass just like that one !!!

[bakalando]

Géant!

[ytjhhh]

please what is the genre of this music and where can i find more of this. Please list some similar artists

[MrDuga2000]

et avec ca,la musik camerounaise souffre?avouez ke c est la mauvaise volonte des uns et autres!!!

[metalshark69]

Saw this live show in 1991 at Universal Amphitheater in Los Angeles. Nsangue kills on bass!!

[HeinekenPete]

This is a continuation of the song posted on this page as "Festival de Clermont: Jean Luc Ponty" @ 1:54 long. From the DVD "Jean Luc-Ponty Live 2004"

[sabrinaplease]

I first saw this solo on piece of sheet music for this band I was playing for and I needed to hear and was just blown away by nsangue's joyous melodies and the albums he's on are all great. And although not evident here, He gets a absolutely great sound out of the POS bass

[SmakitNicely]

@sabrinaplease that bass is an ESP 1980's vintage model. Besides Guy Nsangue, Masayoshi Yamashita of the Loudness Band played that model except with a different neck and headstock. It was a quality instrument and ESP still offers quality instruments for musicians. Guy had some pics taped to the body on his, dosen't make that bass a POS. I'd have it in a new york second and I can reach behind me and grasp an Alembic. Guy switched one of the P bass pickups.

[misterpink71]

@SmakitNicely : On this video, Guy is playing an ARIA Pro 2 Diamond Series, with Seymour Ducan pick up !!! Sure, i saw him when he played in Paris.

[SmakitNicely]

@misterpink71 no, that's definately an 80's era ESP. Note the double P pickup arrangement. Also note the control placement. The only thing that has me puzzled is the neck seems to be either a Jackson or a Charvel or a Kramer with 21 frets.

[misterpink71]

@SmakitNicely

No it's an ARIA PRO 2, sure, I've touched it.

[jvmc08]

I like that I can go to the bathroom while the bass solo starts and come back and not miss anything

[gomachols]

@jvmc08 haha



[tatoguy]

[boubouthebass]

Bonne écoute

[misterpink71]

Pour ceux qui aiment ce morceau, on peut le trouver sur Google en tapant Mouna Mboa avec Bona et Mbappé au Cameroun à Douala. Et c'est très méchant !!! Sinon Guy N'Sangue est monstrueux sur l'album de Red Whale (Jazz Fusion)

[pzwumk20]

@misterpink71

j'ai tappé mouna mboa sur google mais je n'ai rien trouvé du gig avec bona et mbappe a douala. pourrais tu donner de plus amples infos ou un lien direct en message privé ? thx a lot ;)

[gringochucha]

Such a weird look on Ponty's face.

[yadery1]

trop trop fort guy, un vrai régal, du grand art.....

[diegobass21]

awesome bass solo!

[margus44]

What bass does he play?

[gringochucha]

Was this in the middle of a song or was the band jamming?

[romsprod]

@gringochucha : in the middle of the song "Mouna Bowa" (Jean Luc PONTY band)

[gringochucha]

@gringochucha Oops, didn't realise it was in the title. Thanks : )

[karimmevaa]
