Is it possible to get instrument name from Track structure?

That's the whole question)

I've tried to parse it from track.staves[0].stringTuning.name || track.name, but this is unsafe way
Maybe, it'll be important.. Now, i set the instruments to tracks in TuxGuitar, than save it as gp5 and open via AlphaTab

One way I know of is to get the midi program number in track.playbackInfo.program which you can write a function that resolves that to a string. Bare in mind that midi has several program numbers for guitars (overdrive, distortion, clean, etc).
From wiki:
Guitar
25 Acoustic Guitar (nylon)
26 Acoustic Guitar (steel)
27 Electric Guitar (jazz)
28 Electric Guitar (clean)
29 Electric Guitar (muted)
30 Electric Guitar (overdriven)
31 Electric Guitar (distortion)
32 Electric Guitar (harmonics)

Oh, thank you, that will come in handy
I think, that we need a legal way to identify instrument from alphaTab tracks)

As @mxAlexG indicated: The best way to identify the instrument is the track.playbackInfo.program, this is the midi instrument used for playback. But you might need special treatment of the drum/percussion tracks where you might need to consider staff.isPercussion.
