JB is wasting these guys' prime years.

Tolbert should have blessed the genre with tons of gems. This is criminal.

What's wrong with Mukulu? Whenever he talks it's only about 'victimes vestimentaires', etc.

This is why I'm saving up to buy a Steinberger GM4T. The sound on it is so luscious when it comes to playing sebene!

How much is this Guitar

Because its vintage, it would cost around £3000-7000 ish it's pretty expensive because these models are not made anymore.

It is not that expensive, especially if you can let the tremolo idea go. Roga Roga did not use tremolo at all, I think.

Yeah, because this one that I linked is modified, but if you replace the neck pickup that is the most essential in Congolese music back to the original EMG, you are still at discount price, and get the usual Steinberger sound.

By the way, as far as color is concerned, Makaba played the black color variant back in the 80's as I remember.

yeah true, he became back with it in 1986, after living for sometime in Belgium and used it until 1994. In 1994 he got that white steinberger, which he sold last year.

Crisp clear sound

WTFFF how did I miss this?! This is fire. Naaaa Tolbert Solo needs to go somewhere else, Let him go to Ferre's group, Or F'Victeam he'd easily fill the void left by Alva, or Maison Mere, Heckkk go even to Quartier Cindy. My point is all those groups would make better use of him than Faux leader Jb has done, what is this?? EMO is 100000% correct with what he says about Jb and Bcbg.

here is him playing on junior mpiana's song with that guitar

Anyway you can recreate this sound on any proper guitar I think, if you have the right pickup plus set the strings as low as possible. That nice ringing that you can here on the guitar notes are actually the  strings set low. The reverse of this are old records from the 50's and 60's when they had guitars with stings set high, this ringing was impossible in that setup.

I will try it once when I can get hold of some EMG pickups.
