Good song. Alright lesson. Buuuut... He's just not Dennis. I just don't see why David needs to re-explain the finger placement for damn near every power chord. Clearly he's accustomed to teaching cowboy chords. I mean, just say that the main riff ends in a C power chord. aka Csus. You don't need to explain it away like it's some groovy, complicated jazz chord none of us have heard about. Everyone even sorta familiar with the most basic basics of metal should know power chords & how they work. And if you don't know that... Go watch Dennis for the essential techniques!

whatever happened to not knowing any megadeth? pfft. great lesson.

gabrielcallejagabrielcalleja replied on June 4th, 2011

David I believe both Mustaine and Friedman did it with their fingers perpendicular to the strings as to play all the power chords in what is called 'The Spider Riffing' and they are clever enough to palm mute higher strings. ;)

About David Wallimann View Full Biography David was born in Aix-en-Provence, South France in 1977. At the age of 15, he picked up the guitar and started developing a true love for instrumental music and composition.

In 1999 he was recognized by Ibanez for his promising musical achievements and received an artist endorsement. That early recognition in David's musical career encouraged him to consecrate more time on crafting his musical art and apply to the school of modern music Artist' in Cavaillon, France. He received a full scholarship there where he graduated with honors.

In 2001, David won first place for the Tal Farlow French national jazz contest which gave him a full paid scholarship to the CMA school of modern music in Valenciennes, France. He graduated specializing in advance guitar with honors.

Following his school years, David spent the next 5 years working with several bands recording, writing and playing shows in France and Belgium. It's during that time that Wallimann was exposed to the world of progressive rock which opened new doors to his musical creativity.

Deep inside the Mind is his first release as a solo artist in which he exposes his Christian faith. The album was well received in the specialized press and was compared several times to some of Frank Zappa's approach to music adding an element of humor to deep subjects.

In 2005 he joined the internationally renown progressive band Glass Hammer based in Chattanooga, TN. He released several studio albums and live DVDs with the band.

David is today working on his next upcoming solo release and is also spending quite a bit of time teaching guitar in his studio and online at JamPlay.
