@garythompson4103, great to hear! Check this lesson out too if you haven't already as it will lay the foundation for triads: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-lNFv-potxVw.html Ther are some other videos on triads on the channel too :)
Hi Simon. Thanks for sending the link to this video in a previous comment I made on your initial triads video. Great video and this gives me so much to work with and a great place to start from as I continue to explore triads on the guitar fretboard as well as it will enhance my understanding of the guitar neck so I don't primarily stay with open chords in the first few frets of the guitar. It will also allow me to have a starting point for adding ornamentation and embellishments to my playing to make it more interesting. Additionally it will give me a great starting point to begin a little lead guitar type phrase learning. I like the way you teach. You show concepts, explain them well, and then provide application. From the way you present it makes it understandable how we can then take these concepts / techniques and explore them further without fear. :) Thanks again!
@jeandominique9353, glad you liked the video :) I don't have any jam tracks, but you will find loads of them on YT that you can apply the concepts taught in this video etc.
Simon- thank you! I’ve been playing guitar for over 50 years and recently have become bored with what I do and know. I use open tunings often to create a different sound. But, This is what I needed. I’ve been seeking a way to make my songs in standard tuning more interesting. Anyway, I will be watching more. Do you have a source where all the triads are written or tabbed on the neck? I’m looking for something visual to practice with. Again thanks Lori
@loriporter6244, thank you! I am glad you found this lesson helpful. Here are the other triad videos I currently have on the channel: This first one maps out the major and minor triad shapes on each stringiest. If you click the link in the first comment below the video you'll be taken to a page on my website with diagrams for each triad: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-3DhedsPbvcQ.html And here are two other triad videos that might be of interest: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-lNFv-potxVw.html ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Vn4TiPj51N8.html
Gidday from NZ, great lesson. I've been messing with triads for a while and have focused on working thru the chords in one position (close voicing?) . I use a looper for backing tracks and you have given me some new sounds to work with, cheers. Lovely Maton btw
Thanks for checking out the video Mario and glad it has provided you with some ideas for using triads! Glad you like the Maton. I've had it for about 20 years. It is an EM325C. They don't make this model anymore, but has been a great guitar for me
This is brilliant way of learning ---thankyou so much Simon ---finally I can d/load the tab without problems like the feared patreon page on other vids--(grumpy Brian at Active Melody )--wants $ payments for tabs -- from aging pensioners in Africa !)
Hi Simon have just come across your Triad lessons and for the first time I really get it. Your explanations and examples are first class and so easy to understand together with the way you build one lesson onto another so that the triad playing can be progressed. Still just learning on the first three strings but hope in time to learn triad shapes across the fretboard. Do you have any lessens on Double stops which I also would like to be able to play? Bill
Hi Bill, great to hear you have found this lesson useful for your playing! :) I do have a lesson on double stops which you can access here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-e9lMzOf21WA.html I also have another lesson using rhythm fills that you might like here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-EZYix-4cijI.html Let me know what you think and if you have any questions :)
Hi I really like this and your other lessons. Very well done and clear presentation. Just one thing. Do you have the backing tracks for these triads, or where can we find them? Thanks for your lessons
Hi Andrew, glad you liked the lesson and found dit helpful :) I don't have the backing tracks on hand. You could take the principle of what I am doing here and apply it to relevant backing tracks on YT. This would really help you solidify the concepts n this lesson. I did make the backing tracks with GarageBand, so you could do similar too :)
Hi Simon, Al here, I really was going to sign up. I believe that every single penny spent on your courses are worth it. That is my honest opinion. But here comes the big But, I just can’t afford it sorry 😢 😢. Al.
It's like "3 Ways To Create Great speech using "the", "...ing" and "...out" letters combinations. Triads are just three notes like any others. So called "triads" just a sub-sequence of "voicing" and "inversion". And "inversion" of chords is strait forward consequence of "interval" nature of harmony/consonance. Once you've told about _intervals_ and consonance : you already closed the theme of inversions, chord voicing, augmented and diminished chords and _ALL_ over it. But it's like a subject for 5 minutes to mention about. And RU-vidrs will run out of headers immediately.... The only reason why such videos exist is that RU-vidrs are out of subjects to discuss but still HAVE TO make more videos. You might make "how to create melody with three random notes" video by the exact same reasons of the same purpose. When you see ANYTHING like this in video titles - that''s the great sign you have to block this channel to not waste your time. Because they are useless. They exist because of RU-vidRS, not because of music or harmony or guitars.
@SugarTouch, LOL! The topic of triads and using them to create music predates RU-vid and the internet. I can assure you there is more to learn about guitar than you could fit in a single lifetime, so no problem running out of topics. And triads are not just 3 notes like any others as you say, they happen to be the chord tones that are important when it comes to soloing, and to have a way to target these chord tones through triads is very useful.
