Troy Stetina were my first heavy metal virtual teacher all the time. Thank you a lot for this! Please continue inspiring new and experient guitarist to play.
I've got your books in Russian language.
They were published in Russia 20 years ago.
Thank you for the great job!
It's amazing to see you live now!
Thank you Troy Stetina. Your Speed Mechanics Book has improved my guitar playing just within a year - I am so pleased and honoured to have followed your lessons online over the years.
Gerard Natera Awesome! I hope to put a few demonstrations from Speed Mechanics up as well in coming months
Troy, you are the best guitar instructor out there period. I have all of your books and am constantly referring back to them. What sets you apart is that your examples sound so cool to play, so we learn theory and great sounding riffs/songs at the same time! Please, please, please, post a master class on your solos from your Metal Rhythm series, especially Tales From the Crypt and The Tao of Metal. Those solos are AMAZING! Thanks for all of your hard work.
Scott Shafer Thanks Scott, I'll keep that in mind for some future vids. Thanks for you input!
Troy stetina is a legend. What a source of inspiration for me
Well thank you! All the best😊
Troy You've always been the best teacher and you will always be. just came here to say thank you. I love your total rock guitar book
Thank you so much! All the best to you
I bought like 5 of your books. This is where I wish I had started before, I have a lot of bad habits to clean up as far as rhythm and timing. Your Metal Rhythm guitar books are helping me tremendously
Awesome! glad to hear it!
Thank you troy i have recently purchased your whole catalogue haha and with in weeks ive picked up the skills and knowledge to play some of my favourite songs , riffs... thank you :)
Hi Troy,
Back in the time when I used to live in Iran I had a shred black and white copy of your books which I had obtained the copies through a very talented Metal player who was friend of min. As a beginner I used to hardly read and comprehend the heavy metal chords pattern with out the CD and play them with out listening. That was the beginning for me to learn a bit about how heavy metal power chords are played. When i came to Australia I still had your name in my mind and I went to a music shop in Melbourne and bought a cheap electric guitar and ordered two series of heavy metal rhythm guitar and lead by Troy Stetina. It was then i could here the pattern on CD as well and was getting so excited of hearing them and playing along. For some unknown reason my books and guitar were stolen from me and I stopped playing guitar for 10 years as I thought thats not for me anymore even though I still loved to listen to metal songs. after so many years it was about two months ago that I decided to purchase new flying V heavy metal electric guitar to pursue this passion again. After receiving my beautiful guitar first thing I did I typed in your name on you tube and started looking at the way you teach. It was nice, simple and very understanding. The first thing I searched was the riff of song "All things repulsive" which I loved to play. I am very happy to see you here and although I never had the honour of meeting you personally, I always know you as my first master and teacher in learning, playing and enjoying the pattern and riffs of heavy metal. It is also interesting to see that some of Iranian here thanked you as well and I can tell that by their name and sure name. My generation in Iran love heavy Metal.
Thank you Troy
Troy Stetina thanks Troy..please guide me through the step by step of learning guitar.
Hi Troy, will be in contact soon to get more info about the whole thing and procedure. Wii prob be interested thanks
Tory- Great job on this video! Your lessons are always top-quality. The Metal Rhythm Guitar Vol 1 and 2 and The Metal Lead Guitar Vol 1 and 2 book/CD packs are essential to any aspiring rock/metal guitarist's library!
Sarah Spisak Thanks Sarah, I hope your lessons and playing are going well for you these days :)
Troy Stetina Thanks, Troy! Yes, all is going very well. :-)
Troy is the BEST teacher in books period! I have other rock metal guitar books but the exercises and clear way that Troy explains things for beginners are incredible. The videos he shows are clear. Rock on Troy!
Hi Troy, it's Vinay. I was just going through some of your syncopated examples from Vol.1. The concepts you present always apply and we are unlikely to ever outgrow them in the path to hard rock and metal mastery. Thank you for changing my life forever with your core series.
Hi Vinay, Glad it was helpful!
Troy Stetina 's guitar lessons are always great quality,even the riffs and songs ! thx man
love all your work Troy bought these books 20 years back
@@TroyStetinaMusic that`s great will look out for it! your books inspired me back then very much metal lead primer was so good too !
Hey Troy, I've been practicing your books for a while and they're so good. I made so much progress lately. Thanks!
Love this. Just nice to see a full video lesson by you, Troy. Metal Rhythm/Lead series as a package is honestly one of the best materials I’ve ever utilized. I also love Fretboard Mastery, but I find that one a lot more difficult to crack and daunting to tackle, but it’s still a very exciting book for me.
I’m currently on chapter 8, Rhythm 2. I’m on Chapter 2, Lead 1, still working on the speed exercises and 16th note variations. I’ve been on that chapter much longer than I care to admit because I find it challenging and I’m constantly distracted by other blues books I’m working on and just playing and fiddling on the guitar. Soon I will blow past it all the way to chapter 3!!
Just started your Metal Rhythm Guitar book, and this is so useful to go along with it!
Great to hear! Good luck with everything!
Just wanted to say thank you.. I've been playing for about 15 yrs, but about 2 years ago I bought your Speed Mechanics book and I have progressed more in the last 2 years than I could ever hoped.. Thanks,
Brian Jewell couldn't have said it better myself - Speed Mechanics is "THE" technique book - thanks so much Troy
Troy Stetina. A True master and inspiration. Thank you for all years of teaching guitar. your methods are great and easy to follow. Thank you.
Troy I'm so glad you've mage videos for the books I bought 30 years ago!! I took an 18 year break from playing, started up again a few years ago, and have been looking for exactly this!! Thanks man! 🤘🏻🎸
Glad you like them!
Your book/cassette sets were how I learned the basics when I first started playing back in the day.
Troy thank you for your classes, Rock on!!!
Thanks Troy! Your books were a game changer as far as helping people learn guitar and nobody teaches it better. Fortunately they came out before I started learning or I'd be screwed, haha. The books are sat just besides me as I write this :-)
Thank you Troy I love your books so easy to follow and clear explanations. I did take private lessons but had to stop due to costs and your books are great to help me advance on my own.
Hi I am from Syria and I am studying your curriculum Thank you, you are my favorite
Thank you!
Great memories with Whips and chains when I started playing electric guitar in 1997.
😀
I tried a lot of Tutorials, Books, Videos etc...at the end i become frustrated....but when i begin to use your book Speed Mechanic i become inspired and play well. Thank You Idol Troy you are the best Guitar teacher in the Universe.
Greetings from Greece Troy..I have bought your book Speed Mechanics for Lead Guitar back in 1997..you were one of my youth heroes...nice to meet you here...
Hi sir I have been practicing your books since I was teen now I am 41 still following your instructions...it helps so many ways... Please post metal rytham guitar solos... Best wishes from India...
Several of them are here on my youtube channel. All of them, with fuller walk thrus and detailed explanations and practice tips are on Patreon.com/TroyStetina tier 3. All the best!
@@TroyStetinaMusic thank you very much sir please come to my home with your family... Best wishes....
Hello Troy,
I've been a fan since I bought metal lead guitar 1 in the 90's. I currently have all of your books and videos. I study them constantly. I would like to thank you for everything you taught me in those years. I want to ask you when will the DVD version of Speed mechanics be released? Thanks again!
I began to practice this book in Chinese language a few weeks ago. It’s an excellent book and I thought it's the best guitar book for me! But I only practiced with the audios attached before. I am searching for the demo videos for a long time. Now I know how I can play better according to your videos. Thanks for your great jobs. Looking forward more demo and guide videos from you!
Troy, you really rock! Thanks for all that you bring to me every day since 1 year now :) I am an old rocker and I always wanted to play like my favorite bands. I am not there yet but I can feel good progress because of your books.
And now, this is even more interesting and useful to see the vids. Your explanations make things crystal clear. Keep it up.
BigFab38 Awesome! Thanks for the feedback. I'm striving to be clear, but not overly redundant. It takes some practice. So it's good to get some real world feedback that I'm on the right track
Dear Grandmaster Troy, Your training methods can be hard to find in Iran. But I've provided them with a lot more effort. And diligently, I'm using your lessons in my own way to playing guitar. GOD bless you my Inspirational teacher & Thank you.
Late to the party but I’ve got vol. 1 and looking forward to building some decent technique/breaking some bad habits.
Excellent, I have this book. Looking forward to seeing the other lessons too!
Rick Blacker Thanks Rick
My guitar guru 🙏🏿
Thank you so much
Awesome when I found you haha… I’m practicing your book right now. This is exactly what I want/need 🤩🤩
Welcome aboard!
Hi Troy. Nice to meet you. Thanks for the great lesson for beginning rock.
Great video Troy! I'm a huge fan of both your metal rhythm and lead series of books. Your books are absolutely some of the best material out there in this genre. Keep the videos coming!
wow- wow- wow !!! The best books !!!Thanks Troy for everything that you have done !!! Greetings from Greece !!! Please more videos !!! I want so much buy your signature guitar model - a true masterpiece !!!
i`m gona rlearn! one your rytm songs tonight on my new Jackson
troy 10+
iron maiden 10 both right up there to me
I've got these books in Mandarin language as well,I am in Taiwan. Thank you for these good lessons.
Thanks, I really enjoyed the lesson Troy, I have got rhythm and lead vols 1 and 2, total rock, speed mechanics and The sound and the story, I am an "older rocker" and still have a long long way to go with this material, looking forward to more video lessons, one from the lead series would help greatly, thanks again.
I just ordered both the Metal Rhythm Guitar Vol 1 & Metal Lead Guitar Primer and I'm looking forward to their arrival. I'm not a "beginner", however. It's hard to say where I fit. I can play "slow" blues leads, but when it comes to anything involving speed I can't pull it off. I'm hoping these books will push me to the next level, whatever that level is. I suppose I'm at the beginning stages of "intermediate". For some reason I have a difficult time doing descending pull-off runs (moving from string to string). I have owned your speed mechanics book for several years, and that was way above my ability. I do enjoy your teaching materials a lot. Keep them coming !!
Thanks, Troy. I will certainly follow your advice. I've noticed some vids where people are referring to Total Rock Guitar Volume 2? I couldn't find a Volume 2 for sale anywhere. Also, do you recommend an online site to order more of your instructional books. I generally use Sheet Music Plus. Again, thanks for your advice and for your excellent teaching books!
It's funny. That long talk about "the pulse" in the middle I'm only starting to realize it's importance.
For as long as I can remember, I can count time and anticipate the next notes of songs in my head well, and I thought it was good enough. And I'd look at a video like that and say "Man, stop the philosophical talk, get to the licks !".
But I played like crap and I'd be sad I can never play the rythmns or melodies in my mind.
Now I still play guitar at a humble level, but as soon as I force myself to tap my foot when I play and also slightly get my upper body involved in really feeling the pulse, lowering my head on the downbeats, I feel like finally my body is in sync with what's in my head, and *then* I start to hit things in rythmn. And it applies for everything: melodies, faster runs etc. It also forces me to develop consistent techniques: wrist angle, pick grip, and things like this as if I was rehearsing dance moves.
All that frustration and experience showed me that you may have a sharp mind and ideas in your head connect fast, if you don't get in tune with your body, all these ideas you have will remain in your head. And that playing the guitar relates to dancing, more so than I had imagined.
YES!!! And that is the thing that holds back intermediate players more than anything else. They don't understand the real skills needed, so they keep barking up the wrong tree, looking for 'success' in all the wrong places. Glad to hear you're getting it!
Hi Troy. I'm a big fan of your books. Too bad for me I didn't find them back when I was still a beginner! Nowadays I always recommend the books in your "Troy Stetina Series" as the perfect starting point for learning rock guitar. Good to see you active on CZcams again.
***** Cool. There should be a laminated copy of page 24 of Speed Mechanics in every guitar practice space. ;-)
Such a fantastic lesson, thanks Troy. Just a quick question, thanks to modern laptops, I do not have an access to a cd player at all. I want to buy couple of your books but sadly, I can not use the cds, any solution to that? Is there a way to get the mp3 files? cheers!
I had your Speed Mechanics book...
it was Awesome
thank you very much
Started Lead Primer and Rythm Vol 1 four months ago. As a complete begginer, these books are deceptively thin on pages but I can see a year of hard work in each. I do about 45 min a day out of each plus another 20 to 30 min out of the Rock Rythm DVD and to really get everything under my fingers is gonna take some time. I've been on the metal riffs exercises for almost a month and they are stll not " buttery smooth" yet. My hope is that after fully digesting each volume I can build some sort of momentum going into Lead 1 and Rythm 2.
I would have never thought to approach things that way. I've been trying to sound as close as possible to the CD even recording myself to listen to where I'm at. Even then not moving on until things feel light and easy. This will actually take a bit of courage, to approach things differently than what I've gotten used to. Having trained with weights the past 4+ years, you don't add to the bar until you've mastered the weight your using if anything you may have to drop weight to build some momentum, one step back to move two steps forward.So I'm still coming to grips with the learning process of guitar, thanks so much for the advice. Thank you a million times for the method you've put together. I mean to have an actual road map up the mountain, man that is priceless. I know that specificity of training can make all the difference and that's what you've provided for us. " If this is the style of music you want to play this is what you need to work on, and in this order." My only regret is not having started when I was young but I guess your ready to buckle down and do the work when your ready.
I have the technical ability to play these songs, but I'm lacking in the rhythmic ability to keep a steady groove going. I think I'll pick up these books soon. Great lesson by the way. You cover a lot of ground essential to beginners. Wish I had seen this when I first started playing years ago.
Great book and lessons from amazing teacher. Thank you so much for what you do :)
i love your stuff there fun and easy to understand
thanks Mr Troy i saw your book on site and i wanted to know what is all bout , in this video you did explained well and killed my curiosity , and thank you for the explanation about rhythm and feels, you just told what i needed to ear i m going to get the volume one!
Amazing how a good...no, great..player can take something so "simple" and make it sound so fantastic.
Please do more of these if you can!! :)
Μάνος Καραμάνος I will try to fit them in. This was my "pilot" video to test the new camera here
Cool!!!!
Your books so great!
Thank you very much for lesson, i hope you'll do more lesson on your method books.
Bulent Diler Yes, I will be doing more, here and there between other paying projects
Un fuerte abrazo amigo¡
Thank you Abdel!
Wow this is amazing Troy. I bought most of your books. Rhythm and Lead. I stalled out for awhile but want to get back into it again. Maybe I can manage it more by using these nice short videos. I had trouble with trills and keeping the other strings quiet. More practice I guess. Well keep up the great work.
Dodi1932 Cool! that is exactly the kind of thing I was hoping would help people. "Little" issues like that can make ALL the difference
Troy U are my hero!
Troy, I love your teaching style. And, your room is so metal lol look at those skulls :)
Thanks for the video and I will def. buy your books. Do you have any video series too?
Thank you for taking the time and responding.
Great stuff, thanks. That clarified a few thingsfor me.
saya mulai belajar gitar tahun 1999 akhir. berkembang cepat tahun 2001. dengan mengcopy buku mechanic dan berupa kaset pita, tapi entah mengapa. jari-jari saya di tahun 2004 mulai lemah. saya gantung gitar hingga 2010. saat pandemi covid saya memulai belajar kembali meski tertatih-tatih. jari-jari saya belum kembali full. tapi ingatan jari saya mungkin masih ada. saya coba terus hingga sekarang meski kadang putus asa. saya menemukan buku rhytem for beginer. saya mulai lagi dari awal. terima kasih. apa yang harus saya lakukan? agar jari-jari saya kembali kuat dan bisa speed kembali.
Thank you for making this video :) Finally some one teaching real thyme and how to apply to learning the guitar.
Make that kind of video for speed and Thrash metal book
Hola Troy, mi ingles es medio malo, pero si puedes responder este mensaje. En donde puedo conseguir los libros?
Excellent!!
Is there some way you can make lessons for rocksmith??
Hi Troy. Just curious about visualisation for scales. Are you able to visualise complete scales on the fretboard? I have the muscle memory for them but can only see parts of scales at a time and don't want to get trapped in a box. Any tips welcomed. Thanks.
Thank You Troy for what You are doing. My electric guitar path started from your books. I remember when in my teens, I got a copy of "thrash&speed" and instantly, all Metallica staff transormed from "oh my god! I never be able to play that" into "now I get what they are doing, but I need a sh*tload of practice". I also remember that "megadirt" and some other tracks took instant place in my playlist. Unfortunately I stopped playing for a couple of years, but now, as I had my hands on my old trusty dinky, I also got back to your exercises.
The only thing that I miss in your method, is maybe some additional material for bass players. My bass player got some educational material on some complex bass techniques (like two handed tapping) that are maybe good for bass soloing, but he lacks some simple rythmic knowledge on how to arrange his bass lines to work in conjunction with rythm guitar and drums. Is there any chance of "thrash&speed bass guitar" ?
really guitar master
Thanks ikarus!
Thanks Troy. Could you explain your own mindset when soloing?
What are the things your thinking on? Cheers.
Beginning Rock Rythm DVD starts with open chords, later in chapter 5 of Metal Rythm Vol 1 open chords and arpeggios are introduced. Is it normal to find transitioning between these very difficult? I feel like progress is verrrry slow with open chord changes.
Troy Stetina Well its been a few weeks and I've been applying these suggestions on open chords, and I'm seeing gradual and steady improvement. Thanks so much for the help Troy.
You know I really think your getting the hang of all this guitar stuff. :)
Troy I have your lessons heavy metal guitar from the cassette days. .but the speed mechanics I have on cd...could you please do a live rendition of the wounded bumblebee?
Thanks for these great lessons
HI Troy, I had buy your books, I like your teaching ,And I very like the song 'Babylon' ,
Do you have the video about the song? I think it's must be very cool!
That's the books decdes ago, do you have new stuff comming out recently?
Hello Troy. I purchased your Speed Metal book in the 80s. It came with a cassette but it no longer works. Is there a way to replace it with a CD without having to repurchase the book. I'm 52 years this month and just bought a guitar and pulled your book back out. Thanks
Richard, sorry I missed this post. Hope you found the audio. If not, contact info@halleonard.com and see what the options are. All the best
Would love any suggestions from anyone who has successfully gotten Rock and Roller down from Metal Rythm Vol 1. I've just started it and with my relatively small hands it is such a stretch from the 5th to 10th fret. I can barely get my pinky over the 9th.
well I'm still working on this one month later, it's a lot better but still can't quite keep up with the backing track. This stuff will really teach you patience especially when you have smaller hands that need to really stretch.
Troy Stetina Will definitely do this. Thanks for the help. I know this is the second time you've told me not to spend too long on a group of exercises, but to come back and tighten things up later. I get a little obsessive compulsive and than stubbornly dig in my heels. :)
Hello Troy,
Can you mention the link where I can purchase
your lessons? I prefer
softcopy (downloadable)
than hardcopy (CD or DVD)
because I am living in
the country where is not
easy to get the Hardcopy.
Thanks for this video also.
***** Thanks for your reply Troy.
Our government is sucked and they ask
extra money than the original price when
we collect our order. I will look forward
the ebooks at Amazon and purchase it. Thanks again. ;) :) x)
+Troy Stetina Thanks Troy. I'm gonna purchase tomorrow. ;) :) x)
Hello Tory,
Can I learn Speed and Thrash metal book of yours before learning this book or do I need to learn this book before Speed and Thrash metal book?
Troy Stetina Yes,Sir thanks for your counsel ;I like thrash metal but I should start with metal rhyme Vol 1....
Hi Troy, is this one video in a series from the metal rhythm guitar book? Do you know where I can find the rest?
btw,When playing chromatic scales Im much slower Descending than Ascending ..is that common ?
yes,when im descending on a single string dropping 1 position at a time its slower and also it feels sloppy even though im starting slow .however when im descending from high e to low e same position it's much smoother .ive tried analyzing my problem and i can't get my head around it..ther got to be some mental disconnect when im descending ..btw,thanks for your time .you didn't have to help but you did and it's greatly appreciated ..thanks
Have you released any solo albums or with a band ? (not instructional)
Where can I listen to them ?
***** Thank you! I will check it out.
Hi Troy...what can I do for tendinitis who afflicts my left wrist????thanks
+Troy Stetina Honoured of your reply, thanks a lot...Grazie millle:))
Starting this book with a little experience, specifically with 3 string power chords. Is it okay to use 3 string power chords when playing this song or is it worth going out of my comfort zone using 2 strings?
3 string and 2 string power chords are basically interchangeable. Ideally you want to be able to play either way
@@TroyStetinaMusic thanks so much for taking the time out to answer my question. Loving the book so far!
Troy what advice do you have for learning technically advanced songs by Iron Maiden? I can play basic metal rock riffs but Iron Maiden kicks my butt. Even Metallica is easier.
Many thanks Troy for the quick reply! I have your first metal lead/rhythm guitar books and will focus on that as I have the power chord stuff down. I will start at slower temp 60-100bpm and work up to the Maiden fast tempos. Learning this stuff makes me realize how SUPER talented these guys are.
Just got metal rythm guitar vol 1. and I'm getting metal lead guitar vol 1. Do they correspond with each other or no? I'm wondering if the leads in lead guitar Vol 1. are the leads from metal rythm guitar vol 1.? Thanks
Sorry I missed this comment before... MRG and MLG are separate methods but they do join at the end and cover the rhythm and lead parts of the same, final song. No, the leads I dropped on the MRG songs where just there to add something to the arrangements and make it more interesting to play. In MLG, those solos are all specifically arranged to build technique step by step.
Troy . ?.. how can I get the Metal Rhythm Guitar note book I want to order it 🤘 Rock on . Lol Troy Frost.
Do you recomend learning the caged system?
thanks bro
Hey Troy, how are you? How can I get your books? Is it possible to purchase online and download it then? Thank you :)
you are welcome :)
+Troy Stetina Hey troy I finally got your book " The fretboard Mastery" and "Speed Mechanics for lead guitar". I am a beginner though. Cheers :) \m/
***** Thank you Troy once again. Yes I am looking into it. I might just purchase it today. Cheers Troy ..
+Farhan Shahriar Hey Troy, I have finally got the Book "Metal Rhythm Guitar Vol 1 and Metal Lead guitar primer".. Thanks once again :)
Not audio
Where can I get those CD :) sir
i hum when i play i just get into the rhythm i start to hum for no reason i just hum
a lot of people wouldn't give up if they had this kind of explanation from the godfather of tuition
Danny Bosmans Thanks Danny... yes I think the right information at the right time is crucial. Hopefully, this will become a popular vid and people will share it
