Alex – STG Founder

Hey there, I’m Alex Rodea, founder of Iron Age Guitar Accessories and the Stay Tuned Guitar. My journey with guitars started in 2006, sparked by a fascination with the heavy riffs of Yngwie Malmsteen and the challenge of tackling the riffs of “Arpeggios From Hell.” My background in avionics and systems thinking from my USMC service has fueled a pragmatic approach to both business and music, guiding my role as webmaster and head writer for Stay Tuned. I’ve been weaving the threads of rock, metal, and blues into my playing style and sharing those lessons and experiences since founding Iron Age in 2015. Join me as we continue to explore the enthralling world of guitars and share knowledge that resonates with enthusiasts everywhere. Let’s tune in and rock on together!
