David began playing guitar at the age of 9. Although he started with classical music, heavy metal and blues have always been his main focus. He has explored other genres over the years as well, including jazz, classical, and folk just to name a few. He never planned to have music turn into his career. However, he began working as a writer for Ultimate Guitar in 2017 and has since taken a senior editor position.
