Already a self-taught guitarist, Di Piazza developed a distinctive, but unorthodox 'closed palm' technique of picking with the right hand thumb, index, and middle fingers, giving him a speed not often heard in electric bass players. A member of the John McLaughlin Trio" from 1991 to 1992 along with Trilok Gurtu a world tour of 300 concerts and an album Que Alegria. He influenced numerous bass players in Europe and the USA such as Matthew Garrison, Adam Nitti, Lucas Pickford.
