I love the way you teach sir, however I am very apprehensive about purchaing an E-Book on it as there as so many mistakes in diagrams in this video. They are just way too many to not notice sir. Again totally enjoy your presentations.., it is perfect.
I know this sounds cliche, but I really wish I had this video 12 years ago when I started playing guitar. Everything is crystal clearly explained, in a logical progression and it answers the actual question: how to connect scales, chords and CAGED ? I cannot thank you enough for creating this amazing content.
Very clear and straightforward lesson on triads. There are several places where the graphic is wrong though, showing the notes a half step lower on the fretboard, which is a bit confusing if you're not 100% familiar with the notes on the fretboard (why does this just sound so wrong?) 7:08 the root position, 8:42 all of them, 9:06 all of them.
I wish you all the best that can happen to a person in life. Really appreciate the amount of quality content you're sharing with the guitar-playing world. Poland's watching!
At 9:57 : there has been a mistake...... Its R b3 5 But On the diagram in the video its showing R maj 3rd and b5.... And also at 11:05 c dim(2nd inv) its b3 but the diagram is showing major 3rd Please do Correct me if I'm wrong 🙏 Thank you 🙏
JAMES SCOTT NICHOLSON,ONTARIO, CANADA 🇨🇦. JUST WANTED TO LET YOU KNOW,AT APPROXIMATELY 8:58 IN MINOR C INVERSIONS,YOU MADE A MISTAKE, THOSE 3 ARE “B” GREAT LESSON, BUT ALL THESE PEOPLE THINKING ABOUT B MINOR INSTEAD OF C,ARE GOING TO TRY AND PROVE IT... MORE FOCUS PLEASE...♥️♥️✌️🇨🇦
Nice lesson ! At 19:16 the Dm/F is dim instead of minor, the A should be above the D ;) This lesson is the most complete I saw on internet ! Great job !
this is a great video, but there are way to many errors in the graphics, how the chords sound compared to whats on screen etc. some fine tuning is needed here
For those who didn't noticed, there's a little mistake at 11:03, on the second inversion shape the b3 should be a half step lower. Anyway, this video is pure gold. You don't receive the recognition that you deserve. I talk about your channel in every occasion.
I've found no one who explains theory better, however, I believe when he first begins with the graphic of the major triad from 2'05" to 2'28", the graphic of the "C Major Triad" erroneously shows the third as a" G" . I'm a beginner and I had stopped/frozen the screen right at this graphic and I was in fits trying to understand how the "Third" could be a "G" in the C Major Scale until I realized it's just a momentary error; if I had noticed that the G was also shown at the "Fifth" in the graphic sooner, I would have saved some time, lol. Anyway, I'm still psyched from just watching his excellent video on "modes", so I'm here to one again understand theory for the first time after several attempts listening to other instructors whose explanations I could not understand.
that's a brilliant lesson! all of these are actually part of (or dissected out of the) CAGED chord system :) once you learn the caged penta and dia- tonics triads are considerably easier to visualise. ty for this
This is by far the best free teaching I have come across. Subscribed, liked, and added notification. Absolutely, will check out what's you got as paid contents! Bravo man!!!
at minute 19:18 the chord letters are misplaced. There it should say A - C - F and not A - F - C because if you play the B string on the first fret it gives you a C and not an F. Just a little clarification, good video.
Hello Sir, I think there is mistake in diagram of maj triads on neck for B,G,D strings at 7:58 , I think the root shape is wrong as 3rd and 5th are written in each other's place, btw you're lectures are amazing so I was able to point such subtle thing out , Thank you for providing us with such wonderful lessons, can't express how much it helps me out.
Thank you so much for putting this video together, this is such a comprehensive lesson. The progression of ideas presenting along with the visuals really helped this click for me!
Maybe its my mistake but it seems the summary of minor shapes is wrong around 9:55 C e fis isnt correct, it must be c es g on the 234 strings at the middle shape?? The system u teach is verry cool, o repeat Learning triads ad try to get different views on musik theory for guitar. Thx
@@QJamTracks thx for your feedback❤ i wasnt sure but your video my brain a boost. You connected my peaces of music theory to a new big picture. I missed this so many years... thx ❤
Shouldn't the C Major Root Position be 1 fret up from what your video shows at about 7:04? If not I'm confused because the notes don't seems to match. But what an awesome video!! You have really, really helped me!
the super tool exists, it's here, it is a good to help your memory or start learning, but the best way is to search by yourself sometimes. so thank you much for this video. BUT i have just a little misunderstanding 19:16 the Fifth (A) of the Dm /F . it seems there a flat Fifth instead of a FiFth, so a completly vertical triad ? right ?
The video is very helpful so far. But I think there's a small mistake at 7:52 I think the root position is (Root, 3, 5) but what's written is (Root, 5, 3)
This teaching aproach is ideal for me right now, thanks for the video. It is really just a pity that there appear so many mistakes. I think i had spot another one at 15:57. There is not visualised A mixolydian scale, but dorian mode of G major scale - A dorian. (hopefuly i am not just mystifying even more)
Q Jam Tracks you habe done a mistake at the diminished chords.There are major chords on stringset 543 instead of diminished chords.We are all, humans and nobody s perfect.Love the channel.Thanx
@@QJamTracks i'm 65 young o . Many thinks didn't exist , we begin to learn playing between friends and know nothing about music scolar . As gipsies ...
When I started playing (and understanding) triads and there inversions, my whole playing got a crazy ramp up. I can't recommend getting triads under your belt enough! Really, get it! And again thanks to Rob for his wonderful, great content!
Sometimes I have to compress it to fit in the whole voice/audio track of the video. Still I use a normal FABfilter C2 compression. Maybe a bit too much from time to time ;)
Thank you for the video and well detailed lessons. You are truly a great teacher. If you had a guitar course for intermediate and advanced guitarists i would be your student. Great stuff 🎸
God I love this channel, thank you for taking time out of your days to create this wonderful educational content. Because of this channel, I have grown as a guitarist.
are we agreeing that when he shows the c major triad root position it is a mistake ? I'm so confused i'm pulling my hair out ...the fifth is g so should be on the third fret and not second? right? omg please tell me ive got this right
This is how shorts about guitar should look like on YT over 30 minutes - yeessssss...SSSS :D Look, he's crawling up my wall Black and hairy, very small Now he's up above my ear Hanging by a little string Boris the half note! Creepy, crawly sweeping, Crowley sweeping, keeping, hybrid picking The Kords ;D their song is great, it should be used in some of Your video ;)
Fantastic video- those charts are going to help me a lot. But also, I don’t know if it’s the best choice to use that detuned, fuzzy tone for showing people what different voicings of chords sound like. Haha it makes it a little unclear when you’re listening to the same notes in different orders & trying to detect fairly subtle distinctions.

Super clear well thought out lesson. Thanks so much...
Do you have lefty version books?
Omg! Where have you been all my life…? ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ This lesson has demystified the guitar 🎸 neck period
I believe this is the one single best video for everything about triads!
I love when diminished chords are not treated as "almost never used so we'll skip them" - thank you for a COMPREHENSIVE lesson 👏
Jesus, whatever teacher said that should never be allowed to teach music!
@@Gregorypeckorymost of them on youtube
@@Gregorypeckoryalmost all do it mostly because you really dont hear diminished but learning something cant hurt with guitar so 🤷♂️
Diminished is used in modern music ..it gives a vibes of coming back home... It sounds great...from pop jazz metal ul find them...
Nice explanation.
Loved how straigtforwrad you got the idea across when many seem incapable of no matter how hard they try. that was very smart. Thank you
Probably the most thorough explanation of triads in one video on TH-cam. Thanks!

Owww man this is sick,.. Good bye Chords, Hello Triads haha.. epic explanation/lesson.. I subscribed right away, thanks..
This is the best video ive seen for someone coming from piano. Thank you This makes sense
At 9:57 : there has been a mistake......
Its R
b3
5
But On the diagram in the video its showing R maj 3rd and b5....
And also at 11:05 c dim(2nd inv) its b3 but the diagram is showing major 3rd
Please do Correct me if I'm wrong 🙏
Thank you 🙏
JAMES SCOTT NICHOLSON,ONTARIO, CANADA 🇨🇦. JUST WANTED TO LET YOU KNOW,AT APPROXIMATELY 8:58 IN MINOR C INVERSIONS,YOU MADE A MISTAKE, THOSE 3 ARE “B”

Nice lesson ! At 19:16 the Dm/F is dim instead of minor, the A should be above the D ;)
This lesson is the most complete I saw on internet ! Great job !
@QJamTracks Hey just to let you know you made a few mistakes in the diagrams for the Dimished inversions. 11:03 & 11:20
Oops. I meant John Denver’s famous song from 1973, “Lady.” It has a beautiful descending triad run in each verse.
Incredible lesson, really never see that before, very cool and thank you for the clarity of this lesson !
this is a great video, but there are way to many errors in the graphics, how the chords sound compared to whats on screen etc. some fine tuning is needed here
At 11:22 I think the diagram shows ordinary major triads on strings 3,4,5 instead of diminished ones
VERY GOOD LESSON...THANK YOU MASTER.
For those who didn't noticed, there's a little mistake at 11:03, on the second inversion shape the b3 should be a half step lower.
Anyway, this video is pure gold. You don't receive the recognition that you deserve. I talk about your channel in every occasion.

@@QJamTracks at 07:10 are the 5 and 3 swapped?
Yes, they are.

Sorry if im wrong.
Cdim 2nd inv on 345 strings have marked e as minor3rd in the graphic but u say e flat
It must be e flat
Min 11:05
True. I made a mistake there...
Nice lesson, at 8:40 however the chord diagrams show the root positions and inversions for the b-minor triads (at least in standard tuning)
that's a brilliant lesson! all of these are actually part of (or dissected out of the) CAGED chord system :) once you learn the caged penta and dia- tonics triads are considerably easier to visualise. ty for this
Thank you amazing video all in one

I love the artwork (graphics & diagrams) what do you use to create it?
Thanks! I use a combination of Adobe Illustrator and photoshop. Then put it all together in Adobe Premiere.
This is incredible. Wow, thank you dude for all your hard work. Truly amazing.
at minute 19:18 the chord letters are misplaced. There it should say A - C - F and not A - F - C because if you play the B string on the first fret it gives you a C and not an F. Just a little clarification, good video.

Very well but it will be easier for understand if you play a standard 6 strings guitar , some of us learn visually looking at your hand ...!
You got a point there...
@@QJamTracks i'm 65 young o . Many thinks didn't exist , we begin to learn playing between friends and know nothing about music scolar . As gipsies ...
Great lesson - @7:51, is it possible you have swapped the labels for the 3rd and 5th? cheers
if guitar playing was easy, they called it soccer.....EPIC😎
@10:02 I'm confused because the 2nd 3rd & 4th string minor triads. The middle one is wrong..
This should be marked as the definitive lesson on Triads, amazing work, clear, concise, good examples.
When I started playing (and understanding) triads and there inversions, my whole playing got a crazy ramp up. I can't recommend getting triads under your belt enough!
Really, get it!
And again thanks to Rob for his wonderful, great content!
do you use some heavy limiting on your instrumentals? they sound pretty smashed. great video though :)
Sometimes I have to compress it to fit in the whole voice/audio track of the video. Still I use a normal FABfilter C2 compression. Maybe a bit too much from time to time ;)
@@QJamTracks maybe a little lower ratio, slow attack and slow release, and a limiter afterwards to get it louder transparently woulg help :)
Man... you make order in my mind as always.
You are awesome!!!
9:56 looks wrong. Should it not be R (D string) b3 (G string) 5 (B string)
Thank you!
Thank you for the video and well detailed lessons. You are truly a great teacher. If you had a guitar course for intermediate and advanced guitarists i would be your student. Great stuff 🎸
Thank you Valdemar!
Agreed. Although there's enough in this lesson to last for years, I too would buy any courses you'd create.
thank you
My Brain Explodes !!! :-))))
:)
Was going to purchase your E-book, but I'm sorry you ask for too much information to purchase
What happen with the diminished chords shapes from the 5th string? All are minor shapes!!
God I love this channel, thank you for taking time out of your days to create this wonderful educational content. Because of this channel, I have grown as a guitarist.
If you know the chords of a note , simply play them with 3 notes in 3 string groups...thats it
Wow, im truly amazed by how much it changes the sound… thanks 👌
are we agreeing that when he shows the c major triad root position it is a mistake ? I'm so confused i'm pulling my hair out ...the fifth is g so should be on the third fret and not second? right? omg please tell me ive got this right
Interesting, clear and very informative. Thank you.
Why does the c minor 123, uninverted., have the root note as b? @ 8:48.
Very nice and enlightning. Subscribed!!!
at 14.59 i think during the chord progression in a major c should be sharp minor
Running with the devil - great example! Keep it up!😊
The bit about superimposing triads is a little unclear to me. Not sure how it works.
At 16:00 the iv triad of Am should be Dm. Also isn’t minor mode Aeolian and not mixolydian?
How do you hang that guitar on the wall?
Haha, yes that seems like a problem. Fortunately Strandberg sells wall mounts for their headless guitars...
Error at 7:57?
I love your tuts BTW. Just tryna help out
You create the clearest music lessons on internet!! thank you very much!!
Great stuff, thanks.
Simply genius! Ten years plus playing by ear and all of sudden I understood a lot !
This is how shorts about guitar should look like on YT
over 30 minutes - yeessssss...SSSS :D
Look, he's crawling up my wall
Black and hairy, very small
Now he's up above my ear
Hanging by a little string
Boris the half note!
Creepy,
crawly
sweeping,
Crowley
sweeping, keeping, hybrid picking
The Kords ;D their song is great, it should be used in some of Your video ;)
Huh???
Best guitar triad video on TH-cam!
You are truly a master. I am just a lowly grasshopper...
Amazing video, but (and please correct me if I'm wrong) the diminished diagrams at 11:22 are completely wrong for the last (bottom) fretboard.
Yes, that is a mistake...
I love this lesson because triads are my favorite!
Love that
Thanks so much
Thank you Samuel
This channel is terrific. Great job. Thanks.
Great lesson. Is it possible to get .pdf? :P Cheers!
great job, need some diminished corrections on the charts ...no?
The more I look the more mistakes I see in the graphics. These a a complete mess.
@7:48 the major root position has the 3rd and 5th mixed up
What an awesome lesson! Super complete and broad! Congratulations!

At 11.05 the second inversion is showing an E on the top, not an Eb
The learning tips part just awesome thank you !
Great video but there are quite a few errors in the diagrams.
The graphic at 11:22 shows wrong set of shapes on the bottom row.
Thanks for such a great lesson! ☺ 👍
I think there is a mistake.!!! They are B minors not C
Incredible good lesson.
Thank you.
