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.

"I feel like a 12 year old kid with a new guitar!"
I am 66 years young and I still got it! I would have never known this if it had not been for Jamplay! I feel like a 12 year old kid with a new guitar! Ha! I cannot express enough how great you're website is! It is for beginners and advanced pickers! I am an advanced picker and thought I had lost it but thanks to you all, I found it again! Even though I only play by ear, I have been a member a whopping whole two weeks now and have already got Brent's country shuffle and country blues down and of course with embellishments. Thank you all for your wonderful program!

"With Jamplay I can fit in a random session when I have time and I can go at my own pace"
I'm a fifty eight year old newbie who owns a guitar which has been sitting untouched in a corner for about seven years now. Last weekend I got inspired to pick it up and finally learn how to play after watching an amazing Spanish guitarist on TV. So, here I am. I'm starting at the beginning with Steve Eulberg and I couldn't be happier (except for the sore fingers :) Some day I'm going to play like Steve! I'm self employed with a hectic schedule. With Jamplay I can fit in a random session when I have time and I can go at my own pace, rewinding and replaying the videos until I get it. This is a very enjoyable diversion from my work yet I still feel like I'm accomplishing something worthwhile. Thanks a lot, Greg

"I believe this is the absolute best site for guitar students."
I am commenting here to tell you and everyone at JamPlay that I believe this is the absolute best site for guitar students. I truly enjoy learning to play the guitar on JamPlay.com. Yes, I said the words, ""enjoy learning."" It is by far the best deal for the money.

wow dave that is beautiful thanks for the lesson
Fantastic lesson, well delivered at a perfect pace (for me). Terrific teacher.
very smooth, very pleasant and what a guitar!
Dave..Hello...I had a quick question. This is excellent stuff. However though the Supplemental content does have tabs but they dont seem to be the same as the lessons that you have...what am I missing. I am Scene 4 and I cant seem to find the tablature...
My apologies...Pl ignore that
Wow. ths is awesome dude. I just found this and I now am compelled to learn it.
Beautiful playing Dave, really enjoyed it!
Where i could find the accords for the backing track?
before i learn this, should i learn the basics of the guitar, scales, chords... thx
of course! check the phase 1 and learn all or lots of chords and scales! don't try to memorize song without understanding them like I did for very long..
great guitar playing! i would really like to play the chords to this. are there cords with tabs available? thanks
wow incredible! great lesson dave!!
great lesson very good
What would you recomend for pedals/amp settings for this sound. I just can't seem to get it right. Thanks.
Thanks so much for the encouraging comments! I used a factory preset from my boss GT8 pedalboard... A little delay, a bit of reverb, a tiny bit of overdrive too...
what kind of gear do you have? i might be able to help you
Great lesson! Only thing is that a guitar without fret dots makes it harder to follow...
oops just saw it will be posted soon sorry. Thanks I'll be watching out for it.
Yeah, sorry about that, basically David doesn't have a computer until Monday and he wanted to make sure it was all accurate with the video itself.
Sounds great! Looking forward to the next one!
Love it! I've always loved that song. Is there tab to print out for this one? You play beautifully!
