@@kwilson27278 I sure will! You reminded me of when i use to play guitar and bass for some quartets back in the mid 80's thru the 90's. "The Lord Smile Upon You"!
You're very welcome! I'd love to help you incorporate the bebop scale into your quartet guitar playing. Stay tuned for a tutorial-I'll be covering how to use the bebop scale to add some jazz flavor to your playing. Thanks for the suggestion, and I appreciate your enthusiasm! 😇🎸
Sir, Help, please. For the life of me. I am trying to figure how a B-flat, seven, suspended 4 is created by the voicing of (1=B-flat, no 3, 4= E-flat, & A=natural 7 tone, i.e. the major 7 of Bflat. The dominant tone is missing. The flat 7 would be A-flat.) If you flat the A, you get the dominant quality of Bb, Eb, & Ab. Thanks You probably read a typo?. j Smith of FL
So my question is this rather than try to figure out all these different triads why can't I just make the chord in any inversion that I want and just hit certain strings of that chord to get the triad that I want?
The short answer is: yes, you absolutely can! In fact, many guitarists use exactly this approach, especially when they want to quickly access triads without worrying too much about specific fingerings. When you play a chord in any inversion and target specific strings, you're essentially isolating triads within the full chord shape. However, learning triad shapes separately can be useful because it gives you more flexibility and awareness. It helps you quickly recognize the triads across the neck and use them in different musical contexts without relying on full chord shapes. So, while your approach works, learning triads gives you deeper fretboard knowledge and versatility. Both methods are useful, and combining them can give you the best of both worlds!
I used to try and teach this to my Uncle..I thought his head going to explode. Then I got a headache because constantly asked "why are the called that? " "Couldn't they name it something else?"
Haha, I can totally relate! Music theory can be a real head-scratcher sometimes. It’s funny how the names can trip people up more than the actual concepts. But once you get past the names, it all starts to make sense! Thanks for sharing your story-sounds like you and your uncle had some fun (and maybe a few headaches) along the way! 😄🎸
