ENDORSEMENT: Seymour Duncan pickup www.seymourduncan.com-- Salvo Vecchio started playing guitar (classic and electric) at 14 years old, and since day one he always practiced a lot on the six strings, both with private teachers, and studying by himself technique, theory and music harmony; actually he gives private guitar lessons in his free time. He has a degree in jurisprudence (laureato presso l'Università degli Studi di Torino) and happily engaged with Laura.As a musicians he is former member of the progressive band IVORY (at the moment the band is working on its debut album), and of the instrumental rock-fusion project ATTITUDE with Simone Damiani on keyboards and many guests that can be heard on the debut CD "Overflowing", released a couple of years ago by Video Radio Rec./Guitar9 Rec.His guitar can also be found on some other records as special guest; for example on Matt Cafissi CD Stars, on the debut album of the instrumental band Meridian (studio project of Luca Bernazzi, also former bass player of Ivory) and many many demos... Salvo Vecchio is also proudly endorser of SEYMOUR DUNCAN pick-up!!
SOME REWIEWS:.....I was really amazed by Salvatore Vecchio's superb guitar playing, since he has an absolutely clean and flashy way of performing his parts! (Dimitris Starakis, Magic Star 'zine) .....gli Ivory con questo ennesimo demo si attestano come una delle migliori band emergenti.....Musicalmente possiamo dire che gli Avorio appartengono alla scena melodica del rock progressivo con il trait d'union dei Journey coni gli stracitati Dream Theater FatesWarning Queensryche. (Stefano Bonelli, Tempi Duri web 'zine) ..........all'ottimo lavoro del chitarrista Salvatore Vecchio, non a caso endorser Seymour Duncan.... (Maurizio "Trevo" Gabelli, Heavy-Metal.it).............Il tutto è accompagnato dall'ottima chitarra di Salvatore, sempre preciso nei suoi passaggi (non sarebbe un endorser per Seymor Duncan pick up), presentandoci un gruppo con un ottima tecnica individuale e un ottimo songwriter che ci regala brani accattivanti e originali.... (Metal-Zone.it)...gli Ivory contano sulle prestazioni dell’ottimo chitarrista Salvatore Vecchio che negli anni ha ormai conquistato una indiscutibile fama nel capoluogo piemontese...La tecnica esecutiva di Salvatore Vecchio non ha nulla da invidiare a quella dei grandi guitar heroes e lo dimostra già dai primi frangenti del brano... (Eugenio Giordano, Truemetal.it)
