DOUG DOPPLER

"Doug Doppler has a great guitar sound - it's uncanny" - Joe Satriani
"I've heard the best and he's right up there"- Neal Schon

Recording artist, touring musician, studio player, clinician and teacher are
but a few of the hats that guitar master guitarist Doug Doppler wears.

Signed to Steve Vai's highly acclaimed Favored Nations label, Doug shares one other key thing in common with his "boss", they are both former pupils of guitar maestro Joe Satriani - and yes, Doug has already played at G3. Doppler's upcoming U.S. tour frames him with another guitar hero - the legendary Michael Schenker of UFO and MSG fame. No stranger to the road, Doug most recently toured across Europe in 2006 opening for Gilby Clarke of Guns N' Roses and Rock Star Supernova.Doppler's debut Favored Nations release "Nu Instrumetal" is a brilliant disc combining pulsating heavy grooves with Doppler's flair for melody and blistering solos. Guest appearances by Brad Gillis (Night Ranger), Billy Sheehan (David Lee Roth, Mr. Big, Steve Vai) and Stu Hamm (Joe Satriani, Steve Vai) add an admirable array of star power to the disc that was described as "Hip and innovative" by Guitar World Magazine. "The great thing about instrumental music is that the songs and the presentation of them can continue to grow and expand each night you perform them. I had an amazing time touring
with Gilby, and am very excited to have the opportunity to play these songs for an American audience. And talk about great company, Michael Schenker is a living legend - what an amazing player!"

Doug is also a highly regarded studio musician and recently retired from
teaching to work full time (day and night) for the number one video game music production house in the world. "When Joe went out on the road, he asked me to take over at the teaching studio where I'd studied with him. I taught there for 20 years, and the time finally came to hang up that hat." The good news is students everywhere can still study with Doug via his highly regarded Guitar 411 DVD series. In the April 2006 issue of Guitar Player magazine, associate editor Jude Gold had this to say - "When you're serious about learning this information - which you should be - then clinician, teacher, and Favored Nations recording artist Doug Doppler is the perfect guy to beat it into your head." Diatonic Theory and Harmony, the first title in the Guitar 411 series will be joined by "Whammy Bar Mojo" which will be released in April 2007. You can visit Guitar411.com for more information on these releases.

Doug is also a top clinician for Ibanez guitars and will be embarking on a
series of clinic tours across the U.S., Italy, England, and New Zealand over
the course of this summer.
