Been on my mind lately as I progress... from chords, into barre chords... and from playing the pentatonic to soloing. You're a great teacher and one of my personal TH-cam "mentors."
Thanks Steve! I appreciate that 😃🎸
I have slight problem with this lesson, I know nothing about modes or any theory and haven't learned any scales, so I'm outgunned and doomed to lose this debate, however, from a novice/failed/stuck in the traps dude, I know all about the difficulties. So, when people like me search 'Triads' we are probably thinking 'easy 3 string improvised chords' as well 'versatile', 'easy replications along the whole neck' .. but ultimately a way to get a song out in a more improvised way. Not arguing about your approach Brian and it is helpful and it is thanks to you I am still persevering and really any lesson is beneficial ... but ... I'm not really into playing backing loops or anywhere near a band or hitting anything vaguely 'really good' .. just hoping for some tricks to improvise, maybe cheat a bit as in compromise perfection in exchange for finding a way to bash out a song more easily .. as in grab a few easy chord's and chord theory. Ultimately I'm inspired by finding ways to play rythymn but also the 'lead' though only really simple harmonies and fills ... which to my thinking quicker/easier 3 string chords could really help with. Very interesting to learn what a 'triad' is, though this lesson teaches chords and the '3 notes structure' of a chord, my idea of 'triads' is ways to improvise with '3 string chords'. Remember many of us are using poorer more difficult to play cheap guitars .. this is also why we need easier ways to get to a song, not perfection but just an easier way which can help us to do fills around these 3 string 'triads', maybe what i am thinking has another name though i've found other tutors who seem to be on the same page as my thinking and say the same things .. cheats, short cuts, improvisations whatever to help us push our boundaries more in some ways.
Really terrific. That trouble you go to to back up the message with solid graphics makes all the difference. Your membership program is one of the best deals on the internet and the world is more musical and less noisy thanks to you. Merry post Christmas.
Thanks Tom! I appreciate the words. The graphics are definitely a lot of work, but it's well worth it in the end. I'm glad to hear that you are liking the vids. I appreciate you following along 😃🎸
Yes, thank you Brian Kelly !❤️👍🏽
I love triads! Had a great gig Saturday night! Thanks for all your lessons and tips!
Great job on explaining the concept. It makes it seem simple. Just what I needed to help motivate me to focus on note locations throughout the fret board.
Awesome video Brian, cool jam at the beginning too! Agree that triads are the foundation of learning the fretboard!
You are the man! The man with a plan, that explains clearly and backs it up with graphics. Solid, in a world of mix and match guitar vids it’s hard to have a clear path on when to learn what, you’ve made it easier for me. Appreciate it.
Thanks for triads lesson. Been learning them this week
Really appreciate this, showed up in my FYP on YT.
Well done and thank you! I’ve been playing by ear for 60 years. Fortunately this now makes sense in a comprehensive way. I will continue by ear yet most importantly the “Why” factor makes it relatable. That factor has helped me get thru to my audience on difficult topics for poorly trained people. THANK YOU!!!
A very helpful hack I created is sort of a mnemonic for CAGED.
It goes like this:
CAGED
C4, A5, G1, E2 and D3.
Once you memorize that (letter with the number), you can instantly know that, e.g., if you are playing the C shape, you are in the 4th position of the Pentatonic Scale. Play A shape, it is the 5th position and so on. Very practical and useful.
9 yrs ago and still a gem. Thank You...
9 years ago?? I just uploaded this yesterday 😁. Glad you like the video though!!
This ties everything thing together. Great question. Scales, caged system. Circle of fifths. EVERYTHING.
Thanks brian!
Makes complete sense! Some YT vids show “3 string Triad grips” which are movable. It’s the same thing, just focused on differently. Maybe your emailer was looking for “grips”
Another great lesson, Thanks Brian. You Da Man!
The thumbnails are like, “I’m reluctantly about to give you the best guitar lessons on the internet..”. Great videos! You’re a great instructor.
Thank you! 😃
What you do in the intro is my absolute GOAL and I will make it thanks to your video bro. Thanks from DR!
Hey glad you liked the vid! Thanks for watching 😀
@@zombieguitar You are one of the best if not THE best on the internet!!!
@@vinz9741 I appreciate the words 🙏
@@zombieguitar It's a bromance then haah cos I appreciate the videos. Keep it up!
Preach it brother ! MERRY CHRISTMAS
Great video once again Big B. Take care Kemosabe 😎👍👌💯👏👏
Great video Brian!
So much clarity. Thanks. All the best for the New year!
Excellent lesson Brian !
I'm guessing you are talking about triads...😯 Happy New Year 🎉 Love your stuff.
Mind blowing video for me it helped out a lot! Thank You!
You do explain stuff very well , and I have progressed very well watching them
great job explaining that
You are the the best teacher on youtube. Thank you. Was that: I am the Highway?
Thanks John! That was a just a quickly made up chord progression on the fly 😁
Excellent lesson. Cleared the fog even more. It's really not as complicated as it seems.
Going to buy full membership soon. Every video you produce speaks to me as a player massively. You are an amazing teacher and I can see me improving soon.
MATE, THIS IS THE BEST TEACHER IN THE WORLD . BRIAN DOES NOT HOLD BACK LITTLE PIECES JUST 2 MAKE U COME BACK 4 MORE. MAKES EVERYTHING SOOOOOOOOOOO SIMPLE.
Thanks David, much appreciated! Let me know if you have any questions 😃
Excellent lesson! It will give all level of guitar players a heads up on what is one of the most important things to learn on guitar. Cheers!
Hello, Brian. In every one of the 5 positions of major scale we can play the seven triads of the scale. For this reason I recommend the 5 positions and not the 7 (3 notes per string).
I love a good triad
Easily one of the best teachers- period. I highly recommend his website too. TH-cam is nice but the site is FAR more comprehensive and better. Tons of content and reference material (not in yTube.) He is also quick to respond to questions- usually right away.
Hey thanks for this comment! I really appreciate the words, and I'm glad to hear that you're happy with the site. Thank you for being a member! 😎🎸
@@zombieguitar Well deserved compliment.
Awesome as always 😃👌
Great video, When we learning we tend to separate informations stuff like triads, arppegios, chords , chord tones, 1, 3 ,5 , caged chords .. its all the same, its depends where are we with guitar knowledge .. best "aha" moments when it klik in our heads..
Hey Brian ! thanks heaps for your awesome and helpful advice and info on triads on the guitar ! I am using this triads info to help me also form simple double stops on the guitar too which I have taken from all the different major and minor triads :) As long as I play them over the correct chords in the chord progression in my chosen key, it will be perfect to add to my lead guitar solo playing !!!! :)
Great idea! That will definitely add to your leads for sure 😁
Hey Brian have just bought your nice cool guitar course on your zombie guitar website ! looks absolutely fantastic and very exciting ! Can you please tell me Brian is there any way that I can actually download your zombie guitar website course material videos from your zombie guitar course website to my computer ? this way I can take it on the go with me ? If not then I will actually just bring the guitar and amp and equipment gear into my house so I can follow along with tutorials :)@@zombieguitar
great video Brian ! I love playing Triads on the guitar ! can you please tell me , what is the secret to actually strumming Triads on the guitar with strumming patterns ?
Ah good content after a holiday, for any level player. Oh also Brian I've noticed that shell voicings are not talked about or explained enough to make an impact on younger players. Maybe maybe let us know about how to open up our chord knowledge with 8 simple chords?
I see you replied for a shell voicing video coming. Brian you have a great way of teaching i can't wait thanks!
2 people requested a video about shell voicings today. So that will be next week's vid 😁
thank you
There’s many good music teachers, in Triads, but we want to understand it on real time of music. There is sometimes too much elements to explain. We lost the essence of triads. So 1 picture give 1000 words. And you show some kind of using triads on tune, track, song. It’s easier to undrestand. Bravo Brian !
Excellent explanation as usual, Brian. Happy New Year!
Great explanation! I think a lot of beginners get confused by the advice “you must learn your triads”, by which the teacher means learn where to find all the 3-note major and minor triads all over the neck, on each set of 3 adjacent strings. This is often described as an alternative or supplement to learning the fretboard via the CAGED system. Would be curious to hear your thoughts and how you would approach that task.
You you're exactly right. I wanted to make sure that this idea that "triad" = ONLY 3 note combinations of R 3 5 was debunked. I've mentioned the "3 note cluster" approach in my "8 ways to visualize the fretboard" video 😁th-cam.com/video/rS4I4U725ck/w-d-xo.html
@@zombieguitar That is a fantastic video. I’ve never seen all these systems discussed in a single lesson, or described so clearly. Thank you!
Hi Brian, thanks for good videos. Can you maybe do a one vid about inversions? I think it would be interesting topic, also very related to this one.
To the guy who posed the question.
If you read this comment. You'll not be sorry if you take the membership, Brian site is stuffed so full of stuff that you could spend a very long time working your way through it. The thing that for me is different about this sit is, each lesson is somehow a clomplete thing by itself, so go for it.
Merry christmass/ holidays to all.
Thank you Morten! I really appreciate the words. What you described was exactly my intention with building the site...always something new to learn and apply!! Glad you like it 😃
Thank's Brian. You have a really unique talent for teaching, I'm of the slightly ''older''' generation so the whole social media thing is not really mine, I've seen a lot of so called teachers who really should have stayed with their day jobs. You're to the point and you'r logical explanations are simply a world apart from others. As mentioned before your lessons somehow stand as individual sections while they also tie to previous and future. Don't know quite how you do that but it's magic.
Great stuff. Re: the Hotel California capo you mentioned, how about a lesson on using the capo in regards to transposing keys (I guess is what it does)? I know it basically just moves the nut around, but how do musicians leverage that in their songs?
A capo can be used to change keys to suit a singers voice. However, in this example the song is always in B minor...Capo on 7th, no capo on 7th or "simplified triads" as used in this video...it's always B minor!
The real magic is then being able to jump into the scale for each chord change. The Triads shown are part of a scale- knowing where you are in that scale is important e.g., which position. Otherwise, Triads are just random groupings on the fretboard when they are part of a scale. It makes it easier to actually play them. Just picking a few random triad chords will get old quickly IMHO. You need to learn how to connect everything. So in every song, I am not just playing ONE key. I am playing the triad tones and within their key, at the right time, then perhaps jumping back into the main scale. Even with the various chords (triads) and their key(s), there are always complimentary tones (shared tones) between them and the other chords. Has something to do with the circle of 5ths and guitar theory. Main thing to know is that it just works.
Yup and this is EXACTLY why I make it my life's purpose to make sure that everyone who watches my vids knows to differentiate between "layer 1" (the scale) and "layer 2" (the chord tones).
In a song that remains in just one single key, layer 1 remains constant, while layer 2 is constantly changing 😁
@@zombieguitar Agreed. I think Jack nicely highlights the importance of both layers and triads (targeting) in this clip. th-cam.com/video/Hv1aIHwmdYQ/w-d-xo.htmlsi=Z9j71KE57Qosa7gs
Hello plz make a video on soloing over minor pentatonic scale adding (major 2nd if I'm not wrong) 2nd and 9th note of natural minor scale
Here ya go 😁 th-cam.com/video/W57xwwvZZrE/w-d-xo.html
It’s strange things are clicking by this I’ve learnt a lot and now going bck again to understand the caged system
Glad to hear it!! 😁
Brian could you make one video how to subtitution chords and using 3 and 6 easy way for me l will be great ful you
Did I hear a little homage to Ordinary World in that intro? I think so
Haha now that you said that, I have that song stuck in my head 🤣🤣
Just one question, Brian.. Can you say Triads (multiple reasons behind that)?!? You ARE a no-nonsense guy. It's why I'm subscribed to your channel. 👍🎸✌😎
Thanks David! I don't think I understand your question though...
@@zombieguitar Just a little humor.. I was referring to how you had to lay it out, and explain how Triads were embedded in nearly all of your videos, but still had to point that out! Love your content! Keep Up the Great Work on into 2023!
@@davidt9841 haha my bad!! Sometimes I get questions where I'm left scratching my head trying to figure out what they are asking. I thought this was one of them 🤣🤣🤣
Have a great new year!! 😁🎸
Seems once again that you really have to know immediately where every note on every fret is. This is so difficult to do "off the Cuff" as it were. This really is holding me back. I can't find notes in any position quick enough to play live as it were. The only way I know would be to write everything down in say a TAB and play from that. If, having learnt a song in say G and the singer says "I sing in Bb" I would have to walk away and transcribe into another key (unless of course I was just playing chords and used a CAPO). Whew I think Penny Whistle may be easier!!!
Just keep going it will click
It's like anything else you have to learn - Just keep doing it - trust me it will sink in. (I'm a guitar teacher of 40+years so have taught lots of pupils, and if you try and learn it you will succeed!). Try learning the notes on one string at a time. It's not as hard as you think - after all they are all in the same order on every string, just starting at a different note - apart from the 2 E strings! After a while you will know all the notes "off the cuff". And the notes A - G are all 2 frets apart, except B to C and E to F which are 1 fret apart. I just started teaching someone in their 60s and he's got this basic knowledge in a week or so.
Zombie guitar has a great video on how to learn it! 🙌 Good luck 👍😃
Pick 1 note at a time and find everywhere it occurs. The octave triangle shapes and unisons really cut down how long it took for me to learn them all.
Start with the low E and A strings and work out the octaves to start.
I wanted to try triads but my wife refuses.
You should entice her with inversions first.
🤣🤣🤣
Stay with Power Cords!
