Gambale has released 20 studio albums, plus three live albums and numerous collaborative projects, along with several instructional books and DVDs.

He has completed three albums and provided all the guitar work for Sir Christopher Lee’s heavy metal album Charlemagne: The Omens of Death. In 2018, Ramos started leading guitar clinics at the prestigious Musicians Institute and performed at the Big Mama-Jama Jamathon with guitar legend Steve Vai. In 2019, he helped to introduce the Cort X700 Duality electric guitar, and praised it for playability, versatility and tone beyond any guitar he’s ever played before.
