Play style
Steve DiGiorgio's style of play is mainly characterized by his fast three-finger technique. Instead of playing with two fingers, as is usually the case (index and middle finger), Steve uses his ring finger to perform very fast 16th-note runs. Also very typical and unusual is his use of fretless basses in the sometimes brutal music genres in which he acts as a bassist.
