Hello, I am Giovanni Scarabel, 20 y.o from Fregona, near Vittorio Veneto (italy); I am a bassplayer and I've just begun to study doublebass in Venice "Benedetto Marcello" conservatory.

I've studied bass tecnique with Giacomo da Ros , Jazz patterns and improvvisation styles with M° Dario Zennaro , and I had some tapping advices from Stefano Maroelli .

I'm studying doublebass with M° Claudio Gasparoni and I've also done some summer courses with him.

I study doublebass since september 2007, but I started playing my instrument, the electric bass, in 2002. I've played with a cover band called " The Diggers " until August 2008. From 2005 to 2007 I've played also with " Tetrafonia ", a funk - rock cover band, with " The Dust " - Glam Rock band - and with " La Femme ", just another cover band. I've also replaced the " Black Dogs "'s, " Made in Iron "'s and " Expro "'s bassplayers for some shows, and played for the singer Manuela Recchia and sometimes for the progressive band " Collage ".

I listen and play every kind of music; rock, funk, hard rock, heavy/progressive/power metal, crossover, pop and a little bit of jazz...

At the moment I'm playing the bass with " The Best Damn Band "; the Avril Lavigne tribute band, with " Violence "; a cross over cover band, with" The Troopers "; an Iron Maiden tribute band, with" Bohemien "; a 70s & 80s rock cover band, and bass & doublebass with " Nicoletta Naibo Trio "; an acoustic pop/country/soul band.

For now that's all, but there are severals projects that soon will start... So, please, leave me a comment! c u and thx very much...!!
