CUSTOMER REVIEWS:
great starting point -
This book was very helpful. I don't think there's much need to learn his songs, cause they're pretty forgettable, but it has a great lesson on muting, and that's worth the price of the book alone. Really, it's the best first book you can buy for an aspiring lead player. The only beginner thing I needed to learn that this book didn't offer was how best to hold my pick for shredding, ended up learning that from Paul Gilbert's dvd. But yea, Troy's a great teacher, this book alone will do a lot for putting you on the right track as a lead guitarist. It's all the prep you need for most 70's solos, like Sabbath's stuff... 90's and 00's lead stuff should be a breeze unless you get into some of the shred stuff they're putting out over seas.

Good starting point for lead guitar -
Actually, this is a book for beginners. Exercises are written in TAB notation so it's easy to read.
It covers basic techniques (hammer-on & pull-off, slide, bend, vibrato, staccato, palm muting, and more) with special emphasis on avoiding unwanted noise from other strings: sounding clean. These techniques are also included in Metal Lead Guitar/Book and Cd (Vol. 1) but I'd better start with 'Metal Lead Guitar Primer'.
It also introduces you into rhythm sense covering up to sixteenth notes, eighteenth & quarter note triplets, rests and rhythmic patterns.
CD includes two songs to solo over (very nice).
If you don't sound clean when soloing or you're starting from the beginning as lead player, try this book, take a metronome and master the included techniques before going into Volume 1 & 2 (I highly recommend them) or other instructional book in lead guitar.
If you really are an intermediate player, this book will be very basic.
Good basics -
The Troy Stetina series is definitely the best instruction books series you can find today. It is well-explained, you get great exercises and songs to play and you gradually feel your skills increasing. Highly recommended.
