Robbert Hanenberg

Robbert Hanenberg began playing guitar at an early age. He has also started including two handed playing as his technique improved. 
His early influences are mostly from Mike Varneys Shrapnel stable. He incorporated a lot of the arpeggios ideas from these players but also extended his own two hand tapping style. His style has also be heavily influenced by listening to piano and keyboard arpeggio constructs. 
He has been playing as a professional musician for 15 years now. He tours with a professional Dutch coverband, does session work for Dutch artists and gives guitar clinics 
He came to my attention when he won a prized U.S.A. Guitar Award in 2005. 
Robbert Hanenberg is one those few guitarists who can combine a great awesome flawless technique with great melodic and emotional playing. I really love his vibrato too. 
In Oct. 2010 he was selected over more than 200 guitarists to act for Steve Vai. 
Currently he works primarily as a session guitarist.
