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.

Discussions with our instructors are just one of the many benefits of becoming a member of JamPlay.highly suggest doing this with a guitar with fret markings. not sure why it wouldn't be...
Agree,,, I had a hard time figuring out where he was. But the lesson is awesome! Great teaching styl...
i agree that lessons should be taught with a guitar that has fret markings! because he tells you what frets,but if you pause to learn a part and the vid is past where he said it.you have to count frets! on the other hand,i learned this song in c# and i don't like dropping my sg that far down & back up to standered tune all the time,so i like that it's only a half step down!
what kind of guitar is that by the way?
could u do holiday by green day?
Beautiful Guitar David. I just wish it had fret markings. While watching the video and using the tab I am fine. When I try to just play along with the video I have to watch closely or I cant tell what fret you are on. I realize that this is the instrument you are comfortable using but it is hard as a student to follow your lessons. Please use another instrument with marked frets when filming the instuctional videos.
i loved this lesson with david.l also love jam plays website.i will return with a longer membership!. jm55
Awesome David you are the best!
great lesson, thank you!
I'm also confused on the chorus,are the tabs provided wrong ? They do not match the lesson. Love the song awesome job.
It is tabbed different but he is still playing the same notes B and F#. They are just stacked at the 10th fret. The way he plays it in the Demo is actually easier and quicker
Awesome, Thanks
No prob
It would have been nice to see you playing the complete lead in slow motion the same way you played it regular in the intro of the video. That would make it a lot easier. You certainly have it together.
Hi Dave, Excellent lesson! What kind of amp are you playing thru and what's you're settings?
Am I missing something or is the tab incorrect for the chorus?
Awesome Dave you nailed it way to go man!!!
Been wanting to play this song for a long time. Thanks!!
ouch this gives me lazy pinkie a work out! thanks dave!
Epic. Do people still say "epic"? Whatever people say that is the modern equivalent of "epic"-- that's what this is.
Great choice, this really made my day.. I was going to request this one, and here we go shows up.. Thanks David!!
nice choice david,,gonna have fun working on this one,tks
Nice one, I love this song.
Wallimann!! This is most excellent!
