Welcome to the official YouTube channel for solo guitar artist Troy Stetina, author of numerous guitar methods and DVDs for Hal Leonard Corporation, including "Speed Mechanics for Lead Guitar," "Fretboard Mastery," the "Metal Lead Guitar" series and more.

Troy sums it up this way: "To me it's all about the music. I love the tension tones and pulls that you don't quite expect. Speed is nice, but if it doesn't deliver something musical and serve the song, it gets boring -- on the listening side as well as the playing. So I strive to play what inspires me. You know, looking to touch that deeper truth within the music. The technique side is always just a means to an end."

Hi, Troy. I'm totally amazed at how brilliantly you play guitar when listening to the CD's that come with your tutorial books (I've got Speed Mechanics and Total Rock). Heavy metal isn't my faviourite music, but the speed and accuracy required to play it well must represent the zenith of electric guitar playing ability. My other favourite guitar player is David Gilmour, and you and he are my inspiration, even though you have totally different playing styles.
