I’m about to record an interview with Troy Stetina, and I want your questions. If you don’t know Troy, he’s the author of Speed Mechanics for Lead Guitar — one of the most influential technique books ever written. That book shaped an entire generation of players (including me), and his approach to developing speed, accuracy, and musical phrasing is still ahead of most modern teaching. He was also a long-time faculty member at the Milwaukee Conservatory of Music, has trained hundreds of high-level players, and has written some of the most widely-used method books in rock/metal technique and rhythm training. Before I sit down with him, I want to collect questions from you. Anything about picking mechanics, practice mindset, his writing process, how he trained his own technique, how he teaches students, or anything you’ve always wanted to ask him. Post your questions below. I’ll pick the best ones and bring them into the interview. Big thank you to @Kevin Lawson for helping me connect with Troy!
