TIAGO DELLA VEGA
Posted by Rick in Music / Artists, News, Tips / Technique, Videos on April 9th, 2010
This will open your eyes!
Tiago Della Vega is a Brazilian guitarist. Born in Caxias do Sul, Rio Grande do Sul, he began learning to play the acoustic guitar at the age of five. After a year, he realized that the electric guitar was his greatest passion. He started to study electric guitar, practicing 14 hours a day.
Tiago della Vega played with the bands After Dark and Fermatha. At present, he travels around the world playing and doing workshops. He currently holds the Guinness World Records title as the fastest guitar player in the world, playing The Flight of the Bumblebee by Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov at 320 beats per minute.
He plays a custom signature Andrellis 7-string guitar which has 24 frets and a Floyd Rose tremolo, the Andrellis TDV.

I have been picking up a free publication from Taylor Guitars from Guitar Guys and I think it’s a pretty interesting little magazine. It is also on line, of course, so check it out:
