Matteo Mancuso - Paul Position (Original)

Hi. I’m 40 years old, but when I grow up I wanna be Matteo Mancuso.

The dudes behind Mateo are incredible musicians...They remind me of Double Trouble's Chris Layton and Tommy Shannon! God bless!!!

[@keithwilliams2218]

We all know how amazing Matteos’ guitar playing is but got to say the bassist and drummer are top notch too!

[@RichardSheehan]

Very true. Great players.

[@25dollarbill24]

Which one is the drummer? (Sorry, but hearing and seeing this unbelievably, unapproachably amazing musicianship tends to leave me even more dumb than I was before hearing/seeing it!)

Yes. Great groove.

After my GOAT guitarist Jeff Beck passed away I was sooooo depressed. Then one day I saw Matteo Mancuso on You Tube perform. The gray cloud of depression was lifted. Thank you Matteo. You have no idea how much your music has inspired me to smile again.

[@pauloshea9978]

I know exactly how that feels!

I was left longing since Stevie Ray left us. Matteo woke up my love of tasty licks a couple years ago and he's stayed near the top of my YT favorites. Just love this young man's ingenuity.

[@giovannipeirone3915]

Although I almost never go to concerts I have been lucky enough to see both Matteo Mancuso and Paul Gilbert live: I won't explain that they sound wonderfully good, everyone knows it. I will simply underline that they are two pleasant, smiling people, with a friendly approach, full of inventiveness, who dialogue with the other musicians with every note, who show no trace of stardom and who involve the audience with the strength of their music. I'm also very curious about the guitar: what sound will the young but immense Matteo produce from it?

[@djadja_djadja]

That's very nice said

[@Hadri_ART]

Anch'io li ho visti uno dopo l altro, paul fuori torino e mancuso ad Alba, erano nello stesso periodo. Anche tu hai visto quei concerti?

[@chrissommers805]

I've been lucky enough to see both Paul and Matteo live, and meet them and hang out with them at guitar camps. Not only are they legendary musicians, they are super nice in person! I've got to jam with Paul on stage three times in his "Massive jams" where he trades licks with 150-200 guitar players in a row, which lasts for hours and hours. I wish I could have jammed with Matteo. Someday maybe...it would be my dream come true.

[@Ark_el_guitar]

🎸Paul Position is absolutely amazing. I was blown away by Matteo's fluent fingerpicking once again, especially the solo part. It gave me goosebumps. I could feel the respect for Paul Gilbert too, which was really touching. 🤩I'm looking forward to the next album. I'll keep supporting you from Japan by listening to this album repeatedly on Amazon Music Unlimited👍

[@someguy67693]

His playing is just something else a true guitarist that you can enjoy with your ears

[@kobra5151]

Ecco come Matteo deve rare: suonare! Qualche passaggio velocissimo come lui sa fare, poi gustarsi lo sviluppo del pezzo con notte un poco più lunghe (ma solo un po') e godere letteralmente la melodia. Pezzo veramente notevole , mi stupisce sempre più il suono e la precisione e pulizia dell'esecuzione. Come struttura il brano mi ricorda Glasgow kiss di Petrucci.Complimenti!!!!

[@RubraLIber]

Questo sound mi piace veramente tanto, quella chitarra baritona nelle mani di MM esplode di gioia freschezza e vitalità, pezzo bellissimo!!!!

[@DDickinson458]

God has blessed this man. And thank God for that because we get to reap the benefits of hearing the beautiful music he creates.

What I find amazing is 30 years ago a guitarist with this level of skill would be on stage in front of millions and celebrated like a god. 2024 he is in his bedroom in shorts playing to KZbin.

[@Chris_GSD]

I've been listening to music for about 50 years; been playing guitar since I was 13.. and I have to place Matteo in world's best guitarists at position 4,, behind Hendrix, Page, Van Halen (IMHO) ... he will probably attain No. 1 or 2 best in history , but he has a few more years ahead of him to earn that ranking. He's simply a genius, and the best performing guitarist in the world today. Congrats to him and his dad !!! Just wonderful talent and music !!! 💖

[@sensemeansproject1650]

Tu es le meilleur de tous les temps Matteo. Tu as élevé cet instrument à un niveau inconnu jusqu'à maintenant. Il y aura un avant et un après M. Mancuso, bravissimo

[@NoahWolfe]

In my youth I was fortunate to witness Paul's tribute with Y.R.O. 40 years later I realize this isn't full circle, but an evolving thread that one should hope lasts well beyond their lifetime - as I'm sure Bach could never have imagined Yngwie some 300 years later. And there is no more worthy guitarist to carry this tradition than Matteo. Amazing as always!

[@alexanderh2715]

I mean matteo is killing it anyways but the bass and drums on top on the same level is just a fantastic combination :)

[@cotroneigiuseppe888]

Avere 27 anni e scrivere un pezzo del genere...questo ragazzo merita tutto il successo che sta avendo. Avanti così.

[@Turbominchia2]

Comunque ha 27 anni, non 7 o 17... direi che è l'età giusta per scrivere buoni pezzi, l'età della maturità artistica. Malmsteen ha scritto le sue cose migliori quando non aveva ancora vent'anni, con gli Steeler e gli Alcatrazz e poi con i Rising Force. P.S. Mancuso mostra meno degli anni che ha... molti meno.

[@Turbominchia2]

@@cotroneigiuseppe888 A Mancuso piace invece, lo menziona spesso come una delle sue influenze. Comunque la si pensi è un mito della 6 corde che ha rivoluzionato il mondo della chitarra al pari di Hendrix e Van Halen. E a 20 anni scarsi aveva già inciso le sue cose migliori...

[@Turbominchia2]

@@cotroneigiuseppe888 questo per dire che il Mancuso fenomeno precoce andava bene quando faceva le cover di Technical Difficulties nella sua cameretta a 17 anni (o giù di lì), a 27 anni ormai è un adulto fatto. Sia chiaro, questo non toglie niente alle sue doti eccezionali di chitarrista. E' un grandissimo e lo direi anche se avesse 80 anni, non mi sposta niente. Ma a 27 anni non è più un bambino...! 😉

For my ears, Matteo always comes with something interesting, melody, outside, rhythm, sometimes all of them. Doesn't feel like common shredding... he and his mates bring MUSIC and I can hear influences of the best styles and players, easily trespassing guitar and Rock sounds. Very organic and amazing, exciting all the time! It reminds of Mclaughlin, Holdsworth, Scott Henderson, Gambale, Govan and others!
