"Enough To Say Goodbye" is a soul-stirring ballad that delves deep into the bittersweet complexities of parting ways. With hauntingly beautiful lyrics that capture the emotions of heartbreak and resignation, this song takes listeners on a journey through the intricacies of letting go. The heartfelt melody, accompanied by soulful vocals, resonates with a sense of longing and acceptance, weaving a tale of love lost and the courage to move forward. Each note carries the weight of farewell, yet there's a glimmer of hope amidst the melancholy, saying goodbye is the only way to find closure and embrace new beginnings. "Enough To Say Goodbye" is more than just a song; it's a powerful anthem for anyone navigating the complexities of endings and new beginnings, offering solace and strength in the midst of heartache. This song is dedicated to my mother, JoAnn Castellano.

My first release of 2024, Whiskey In The House is a song that is very personal to me. I’m sure that it is to many others as well. It’s about coming to terms with one’s habits. A habit that started out as fun and productive (especially socially, LOL) but later turned out to be at bit isolating and non-productive. This is a video of showing me working in the studio. With many of my releases, I play a lot of the instruments/parts myself so I wanted to do a video showcasing that. So here it is! I was never a total mess with it, and I never got into legal trouble with my drinking, but I have come to realize that it’s time to move on and re-find myself. I hope this song inspires some of you who are at or approaching this crossroad. There’s so much out there that's yet to be revealed to me and this song is me making my statement to do just that! Like that old Sinatra song, the best is yet to come! I hope you love the honest message in this song and it help you in some small way! All my best!

Guess what classic this one is! Do you know it? When I do a cover, I love to do it my OWN way! Why do it the way it was already done, right? This one is kind of came out a bit Red Hot Chilli Pepper - esque! The record scratching was done on my guitar with my finger and a string!

I had the honor to play Storytellers in Lyle/Bon Aqua, Tennessee, one Saturday night in October of 2023. The place was once owned and used by the late great Man in Black, Johnny Cash. It's just down the road from his Hide Away farm and museum in Bon Aqua. He owned the property for 30 years and held community parties here during the 70s and 80s. After some years of neglect, it was left covered in vines and was quickly being taken back by Mother Earth. Now, new owners have restored it and have brought it back to its former glory and have made it a beautiful songwriter venue, highlighting its amazing country music past. Here's a video of my visit, a little tour, and my set from the show. For more videos like this, please subscribe to my channel and hit that notification bell!

A simple way to get your EVH WG Standard Floyd Rose tremolo blocked and flush with your guitar body to use the EVH D-Tuna. I simply cut a small block of wood and glued it to the body in the trem cavity. The block keeps the trem resting flush and allows for easy use of the D-Tuna.

Change Something by Troy Castellano is a song with a lot of honesty about how we feel sometimes! Listen to the lyric and it just might help you with your New Year's resolutions.

I randomly came across this guitar while on a music store website. The look of this guitar hooked me in. Who wouldn’t want a guitar blinged out like this? Matter of fact, I’d love to trick a car out in this paint! Being enamored with the looks of this guitar I had to check it out. This is what I thought of the Tommy Thayer Electric Blue guitar. You can buy this guitar right here: https://troycastellano.square.site/product/Epiphone_tommy_Thayer_Electric_Blue_Guitar/24?cs=true

Unboxing a 2017 Les Paul Classic in 2020? Yep, this guitar came directly from Gibson as they sold through their Gibson Demo Shop sale on Reverb.com! They sold off demos, prototypes, and modded models of the past few years. Many one-of-a-kinds. I was lucky to be able to get this beauty and this episode me opening the box and checking out what's inside :)

Restringing my main acoustic guitar, a 2008 Taylor 114 CE today so I thought I why not make a video showing how I go about doing this process. Hope it helps anyone starting to get into the guitar for the first time!

So…since the passing of King Edward, I’ve gone down the rabbit hole with the Wolfgang guitars! I knew I needed one of these guitars back in my rack (previously owned a Peavey Wolfgang). I first bought an EVH Wolfgang Special a few weeks back. I didn’t like the neck, it was different from the Peavey. Like a dumb@ss I sent it back. Thinking I’d get another and hope for a slightly different neck. With the crush of guitarists (like me) buying these now, the Specials were all back-ordered. So I ordered a Standard. I ended up with two and wanted to tell you my experience with them and how they differed from each other! Thanks for watching and please subscribe!

This is my 1990 (Maybe 1989) USA Fullerton CA. made G&L SC-3 Strat-style student guitar. I bought it back in 1993 for a steal! I have had it for many years and am still in awe of how good it is!

I captured this weird wisp that appeared in the air. It seems to bounce of a guys head but it was not even close to the person. Weird!

Quitter - Troy Castellano (Official music video) Quitter is a song off Nashville songwriter Troy Castellano’s EP Sketches From My Blue Heaven Studio Vol. I. Writers: Troy Castellano, Brett Mandel. Video: Troy Castellano and Daniel Jones.

Most of us “Guitarphiles” know that these Wolfgangs are hybrid rock machines but did you know how good they sound clean? Whoa! I was blown away. The clean sounds from each pick-up are amazing. Hear it for yourself. Hope you like it. Also, if you are wondering what I am using for my guitar amp/sound...I am using a Boss GT-1 connected via USB directly to my Presonus Studio 192 into Apple Logic Pro. Get screens shots of my Boss GT-1 amp settings for this video at www.troycastellano.com/guitar. Oh, the bridge on this Floyd Rose is set up floating. More videos coming!

Troy Castellano and Jeff McMahon perform live for Truck Stock!

This is a creek rolling through my yard. One of these days it’s probably going to take out my bridge! Yikes!

This hawk was caught up in my screen porch. It was after a couple of Bluebirds that must have gotten in. I was able to safely catch it and release it back into the wild! Call me the Hawk Whisperer!
