"A nice little exercise..." This exercise has led me to play high to low chords, low to high, changing directions, big interval jumps on the fretboard, etc. in an attempt to be comfortable with them all. Then change to a new key and do it again. Then find common chord progressions used in many songs and do them in multiple keys. It's never-ending and I love it!
Intrusive power, you have set apart the distinction of knowledge and technique of not only the TRIAD cords and scales, but you manage to identify a deeper understanding with your knowledge on the guitar neck. Pure Genius…
Just found ur channel, I had the same Hendrix pic as a kid and why I got a B&W Strat as my 1st guitar. After 30yrs of being a rock hack; Ur lessons have opened up so many things I've played, but never "really understood". Thanks !
Great lesson! Learning from the internets is so caged heavy, and I have heard mention of inversions, but this is the first time I really saw that caged and inversions are just pieces of the same puzzle. This vid has given me a great new way to see the fretboard!
This is exactly what I've been looking for! I know what the triads are but no one has ever explained how to find them easily in a chord progression! Thank you!!!!
I feel fairly comfortable finding the various chords (at least in their full caged version) but I really don't think I could do so with confidence in a jam situation - partly because of the cumbersome nature of some full chords and partly because of lack of proper practice in progressions - so this is going to be a very useful exercise to work on. Gotta say, though, your videos are a really valuable addition to youtube - what took you so long?? I think what I really like most about pretty much every video you've posted so far is that you simply offer a great jump-off point - it's always immediately apparent that what you've just shown is just cracking the door open a little bit and, if you're curious enough (I love that phrase "curious guitarist") there is so much more to discover if you put in the effort - noone ever learned anything by having it all explained to the last detail. I'll definitely be setting aside part of the xmas period to really dig deeper into this. Many thanks!
I am really impressed by how clear and calm you are as a teacher. I have been a high school teacher for the past twenty years and I really feel that you understand the learner. I really appreciate this lesson and how clear it is. Just enough information to get me going and not overwhelming me. I can't wait to watch this again with my guitar. Thanks!
I come back to your lessons as I progress. It's amazing how much I missed during my first view/attempt at this lesson. More specifically, the first time I was hyperfocused on the triads themselves and now I am more interested in the general context of it all (the I IV V). I also find it amazing that these lessons work so well over the internet. Hats off to you, sir. Thank you.
I recently picked up my guitar after 25 years. I'm really interested in theory and how music works, especially in connection with the guitar. I'm less interested in 'learning songs', but in general making sense of music and being able to enjoy playing. You've helped me the most so far and I'm picking it up just about every night to end my day. Thank you- just turned 60 and regret having stopped for so many years.
That was truly somthing complicated (to me) made easy to understand. I'll spend the next few weeks playing around with it. Keep the videos coming!!! Thank you.
Gosh I haven't felt so excited about learning guitar since I was a teenager and I'm in my Young sixties lol, an excellent follow up to your triad series and well paced. I'm processing the arpeggios and triads sessions and because now I have a better understanding I'm better able to see them mapped out clearly and has enabled me to keep up in a practical sense and also appreciate the underlying concepts that has thrown that door wide open! Your an excellent teacher Chris many thanks btw luv the pickguard 👍
Your close voice triads lesson was a game changer for me when I watched it at the weekend. And since then I've been wondering the best way to practice and apply that new found knowledge to the fretboard. And here it is. You've opened up a new world of guitar playing to me in 2 videos. That's pretty incredible stuff. Thank you so much from the bottom of my heart 🙏 ❤
Chris, thanks for the time and effort you take to make these excellent instructional videos! I would love to see a lesson on your *right hand technique* demonstrated in this video, where you play fingerstyle while at the same time holding the pick in your hand to have ready for a switch to pickingstyle!
@@ruedrolet yeah this is something I’ve developed over time…I made a home video of it…email me and I’ll send it to you. Chris at curiousguitarist dot com
Hey Chris, I just watched this again and i picked up information I missed the first time. Thanks for explaining this in such an easily digestible way. Using root notes as anchors to attach information to is such a good way to learn, that’s how I learnt the caged system, using 5 different minor chord shapes with different starting root notes as my foundation, then attaching the correct minor pentatonic scale to that chord shape, I was able to quickly learn how to play in any key anywhere on the neck. I had to hear you go through the triad shapes again to pick up which shape uses which root note. Love Eddie playing that opening part to the eruption solo, such a smooth dreamy melodic phrase.🤘🏻
Hi Chris, a warm thanks from The Netherlands, Europe. The 1-3-5 triads and the long scale forms are eye openers for the both of us. Please keep on this good work. And if we can support your channel in an other way than subscribing we will be glad tot do so. Marcel and Astrid, greetings from The Hague (where the band The Golden Earring reside).
Hello Marcel and Astrid! I'm so glad this lesson resonates and opens eyes for you both. Here is a link to donate to the cause if you are inspired to do so: www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=E8HDTDGCQUCTY Bedankt en welkom!
Thank you Chris. Here are 100.000s of lessons on YT. Only a few are to the point and very helpful. Your lessons are one of those very valuable ones. Specially this one. Thanks again.
Just discovered your channel thanks to Marty. Also joined your Patreon page. You have a great way of explaining theory and making it accessible. Looking forward to more! I'd love to see some lessons on arpeggio theory, if you ever run out of other ideas.
Welcome to the channel Ray, and thanks so very much for the support. I was worried about running out of ideas for about 4 seconds when I reminded myself of the limitless nature of music...it still blows my mind every day. Arpeggios eh?! Great suggestion!
i;m NOT an accomplished player...i'm not looking to be an " accomplished player " i just WAY love learning and then put my twist of Lemon. .im just really enjoying my Journey tugging my Telecaster along with me...YOU have been a great guy to have come across on my journey....many thanks dude....REALLY appreciate ya !!
I hear ya! Being clear about where you want to be, and sometimes where you don’t want to be, helps focus you in on the next steps…sometimes they are hard steps that require effort, and sometimes they seem effortless
You got a new subscriber. For years I more or less stumbled over the fretboard. Some days ago I thought "leave that lower strings alone" and ended up connecting the little triads. Why didn't I do this way earlier... I would have improved much more faster and melodical.
I appreciate how thorough you were in this video, including the exercises using the different inversions together in different ways. It really helps to ingrain not only the forms but see their different chords. The forms are one thing to learn but playing different chords and really knowing them is another. I think if you create some song tutorials based on these triads even if the main chord progressions were covered for a group of songs in one video, they would be appreciated by a lot of your subscribers. This video would be a great reference link for those videos.
You are a god teacher….im waiting the end of the month to join your patreon….even tho im trying to learn bass, you provide the best learning method, bravo and thx a lot
@@curiousguitarist what resonates to me changes with my level so in this case I'm right at that stage where I'm learning to familiarize myself with the string sets and the inversion shapes and order that go with each. This lesson was just right for where I'm at. For me the best point was near the end where your went to the next higher 451, rather than the starting inversion. The next thing I need to wrap my mind around and make my own is learning the minor and diminished degrees shapes in the same position as the 145 to the point that it's second nature
Keep at it commander! The ONLY way to make progress on ANYTHING is this: Sustained effort over time against a defined goal. Best to you, and thanks for being here!
I really like your lessons, you're showing me things I've sort of been doing but i didn't understand what it was that i was doing. Not sure if that makes sense but thank you.
Taking the basics into useful territory. Thanks, master! Just before the 2 minute mark, the live VH bit immediately made me think of the odd knopfler tune from the end of "The Princess Bride". "Inconceivable". Haha.
I love when people stumble upon this, and think they discovered something unique. THIS IS THE REASON THE GUITAR FRET BOARD IS LAYED OUT THE WAY IT IS. IT'S NOT AN ACCIDENT.
THANK YOU, CHRIS, FOR DEMONSTRATING THIS IMPORTANT TOPIC. HOWEVER, I THINK THAT IT'D BE MUCH MORE HELPFUL, IF YOU COULD: 1: CHANGE THE CAMERA POSITION TO THE ""PLAYER'S VIEW", OR, ADD SUCH A VIEW TO THE TOP, OR BOTTOM SPLIT SCREEN VIEW. 2: SHOW "TABS", OR "DIAGRAMS OF THE FRETBOARD FINGER POSITIONS, (BUT, HIGHLIGHTING THE "NOTES WIRHIN THE "SCALE" (1, 3, 5, ETC.) OR, HAVE SOME SORT OF "PDF" DOWNLOADABLE VERSION, WHICH WOULD SHOW THIS VITAL DETAILED INFORMATION. IT'S VERY DIFFICULT TO WATCH, AND LISTEN, YET OBSERVE YOUR FINGER POSITIONS, AND FRETS, AND ,TO "PLAY ALONG", WHILE COVERING SO MUCH INFORMATION, IN JUST OVER 10 MINUTES.... I HOPE THAT YOU CAN DO SOME LLESSONS/DEMOS, ON THE SUBJECT OF "DOUBLE-STOPS"!!! THANKS, AGAIN!!!!🎸
I have to say that as a beginner I have avoided triads for a very long time. But this lesson absolutely did it for me. I feel the the key was the containment on just 3 strings. I had so much fun with this and I'm still having it a month after first time watching this lesson. It also helped me to unlock major scale and noodle around it. Further more it helped with mapping the neck. There is so much information to extract from this single lesson. Thank you for producing such valuable lessons!

That makes me smile loopie! Thanks!
Wow! I am looking at triads much differently after this. F6 is Dm, G6 is Em, etc... wow!
Isn’t that cool? A third is a third and they exist in multiple contexts...still blows my mind
From the bottom of my sleepless nights trying to understand this stuff Thank you Sr.!!!!!
This is the perfect lesson at the perfect time for me in my guitar journey. Thank you!
That’s great to hear! Glad this is helpful!
It's great when that happens.
I agree these lessons are what nobody else shows you lol.
Learn this stuff you own the neck. I’ve been learning this using the caged system and this made a lot of sense. Thanks for a great lesson.
Yup! It’s a neck, it has frets, who should own it?
😼

I have learnt more about triad relationships from your video here than 3 months of others, Unlocked it for me!
Man that’s great to hear, Abe! Happy to help unlock!
Really insightful! Funny you mentioned Crazy Train. I use those 3 shapes for it but never had an understanding of why. Now I do. Great lesson! Thanks!

Great to hear, Raymond. Glad you're here.
