this guy is a very good teacher. he has everything it takes and it definitely shows
This is going to be a long one, but will probably be buried in the comment section all the same. I really only got into music some 7 years ago. I played bass in primary school, but was always more interested in video games. Then in lower secondary I became interested in actually listening to music.
I picked up the bass again, and taught myself a couple of songs. I was really into Nirvana back in those days, and had just recently heard their MTV Unplugged cover of Jesus Doesn't Want Me For A Sunbeam. I wanted to learn to play the song, and tried looking up a bass lesson on CZcams. No luck. However, I did find your guitar lesson on the song. It turned out to be really simple, just three chords. I noticed it was part of a series of beginner lessons. I was intrigued enough by that one lesson to take a look at the rest of the beginner's course, and so I started learning to play the guitar.
I've come a long way since then. Nurturing the spark I got from that lesson has given me some amazing opportunities. I've gone on trips to new places and got to know wonderful people. And then there's the playing. It has been my favourite hobby ever since, and it continues to give me so much every day. It helps me express feelings I didn't even know I have. It lets me understand and thus enjoy music in a whole other way.
So what I wanted to do was to thank you, Adrian. I might never have changed the 4 strings for the 6, or carried on playing music, if it weren't for you.
I've also been trying to use more triads in my playing recently, so this is pretty cool.
What I love about this lesson is that it is NOT some "quick fix", quite the opposite. But it is a structured way forward, learning the triads all over the fretboard and I like the fact that it is going to take some time, as long as I know what to do. This way this lesson is more like having a "live guitar teacher" who gives you a lesson to take home and practice, "´til we meet again next time", sort of!
You have a knack of answering the "why?" in my head just after you explain the "how'. Great teacher.
This is one of the best lesson i've ever seen! And one to keep in the library! I'llbe on this for the next week! This is the way to progress after many years of just playing songs learned by heart. Ilove your guitar and the matching glasses my friend! Super cool! I'm joining you on Patreon today!
Thank you for all your videos. By far the most articulate, logical and demonstrative training on YT. I've been playing for decades and always learn something important to progress.
Been noodling with triads for a while with some results, but this lesson has put it together logically and shown me the direction I need to go with it.
Nice lesson. I loved your suggested way to practice the triads. You've made the practice lesson less mechanical and more musical, plus a lot more fun. It sinks into the brain and fingers easier and a bit faster. I also enjoy the part where you provide us with a look into the gear you use. Thanks again for another great video.
Another fantastically VALUABLE lesson Adrian continues to opened up my musicality. This is Gold
Great video…really thought provoking. Lots to practice and this will keep me going for some time. Love the way you have a musical example to put the theory into practice.
You, kind sir, are the man. Please accept my gratitude.
Am really enjoying this lesson! In particular because I can the the relationship to the “CAGED” shapes which when looked at sequentially, has made finding the other triad shapes easier.
Excellent. Working on triads for a while and this gives me more enthusism to continue. Plus the pdf's give excellent support. Will try do my own in other keys !
Thanks for sharing Adrian. I love your content and your laid back presentation style it makes me feel that it is actually possible to improve. Great Job and keep it up...
Adriano,j'm grateful.
You're vero cool 😎
Just a great video, Adrian! Probably the most practical and musical Triad exercise I’ve heard.
We all connect with certain teachers. Your lessons really inspire me. Thank you.
Brilliant! Covers exactly what ive been trying to work out myself, but more completely. Great job, thank you!
Am really enjoying this lesson! In particular because I can the the relationship to the “CAGED” shapes which when looked at sequentially, has made finding the other triad shapes easier.
For instance by superimposing CAGE shapes over the triads you demonstrate, it leads to the exact fret where the next triad is located.
Wow, great lesson! I have been studying triads for about year now and coming up with my own ways to practice them This lesson really takes it to that next level and combines things in a more logical and musical way. Thanks!
Great lesson, Adrian, and it comes along at just the right time for me in my deep dive into the fretboard. Fretboard knowledge indeed should be learned at the beginning stages of learning to play guitar. All of you beginners out there, LEARN THE FRETBOARD!!!..... Take it from one who didn't. When you learn to SEE it, amazing things happen......... 👍 Thanks very much, and keep up the good work.
Thanks for this video. I've actually been learning triads for the past 3 days, and today I realised I didn't know why I am learning them apart from maybe becoming more familiar with the fretboard. So it's good to know it will come in handy. Cheers!
Excellent work Adrian. I am nearly 67. Played pro for 3 decades. Was signed with UKs Chysalis when they went belly up.
You detail has brought me back to life as a player. We didn't have you tube. We didn't know we were playing a pentatonic scale. Lol. We did of course.
Best teacher on the web. Yes better than the big name studio guys some I know well
You keep it simple and suddenly things come together instead of flying over peoples head.
Great job. Patron cash on the way
Having progressed from bass to 6 string I always found I was limited to barre chords and the like. After learning the importance of the triad inversion thing from you and Tomo Fujita I now can play chords all over the neck and have a way better understanding of the fretboard too. Cheers.
I really dislike the progressed from bass to guitar. I really don't consider bass to be an easier version of Guitar
@@beqaafrasidze1245 it definitely is a lot easier. Just as fun. But there’s a hell of a lot more you can do with a guitar. The fingering is much harder too
@@beqaafrasidze1245 I never implied bass was an easier instrument to play. Merely mentioned progressing in the sense of as a musician adding another instrument to my arsenal was “progressing”. Bass is still my first love and will always remain my favourite. 🤘🏼
As someone who plays both but has much more time on bass, the whole G to B string 'glitch' throws me off all the time. I get chords fine but all those years of practicing scales on bass makes my hands and brain want to assume every string is tuned in fourths.
Excellent point… very difficult to retrain the muscle memory and approach!
Thanks for doing these lessons. This stuff is so important. Next, it would be nice to learn how to combine this with the major scale in the associated CAGED positions. In your spare time, of course.
What a great video. By far the best triads explanation I’ve heard explained. Thx.
G’day Addy! Thanks to yourself and (Dr) Eric Haugen , this is where I’m at with my practice work and tying everything you guys (and more).
Maybe simple however, it’s working for me!
Cheers mate
👍🇦🇺
Just subscribed! I've been playing for more years than I care to remember, but this is a really refreshing no-nonsense approach to navigating the fretboard!
I like these avenues. And the fact that Adrian matched his frames to his neck finish. Thumbs up given.
High quality content.
Your telecaster is shining! Beautiful guitar, Adrian!
Greetings from Brazil
Very cool and informative lesson. Many of us know and use these changes without ever knowing. This really brings it all together and defines the concept as a whole. It also appears the CAGED system is at work here. Thank you.
i always save these to a playlist and on afternoons when ive got time i go through them.As im getting older im thinking its more and more important to learn new things.Thanks for the tips nice playing and a really sweet tele
Very nice to see this slowly mapped out. Thanks, Adrian.
Nice one Adrian. As you were playing it occurred to me this is pretty much the key to Neil Young’s soloing style. The more you explain the more I understand. Thank you.
Good idea for the New Year beginning and good start for a must know boot camp exercise. Fall in!
I was looking for a professional video on learning Triads, and it doesn't get better than this. Outstanding Instructor and presentation.
Very well put together - informative and clearly explained. I don't play guitar but have recently purchased an electric Baritone Ukulele to which I'm looking forward to applying these concepts (less shape changes to learn / apply)
Just discovered your channel and love your teaching style. Bravo! And, thank you!
Thank you, Adrian. This is exactly what I need at the right time!
I've only just found your lessons, your great, love how you teach.
Thanks again Adrian. You’re stuff is always great
For me, I find it easiest to learn by contextualising the theory. The techniques you show in your video are almost exactly the approach I have taken over the past 5 weeks to internalise triads and their inversions. I would focus on a string set , understand the root, first, and second inversions by harmonising the C major scale up and down the neck until I was comfortable and then straight into progressions. I IV V, i iv V, ii V I IV, ii V i IV, I vi ii V, iii IV V, iii V i IV. It starts to come together pretty quickly once you see the relationships. After that I would take lead-sheets from the Real Book and do effectively the same thing, using the nearest triads. Then onto the next strings set, and then the next.
Awesome lesson; I took a lot out of your melody approach.
Thank you Adrian! Beyond all others, I love your videos !!!
Those melodies you pulled out towards the end really reminded me of Sub-Saharan African pop music from the '70s and '80s.
I wish I'd learned about triads as a beginner. They're so useful and simultaneously easy to play. And if you're an electric guitar player in a band context, you tend to learn that you want to avoid taking up space for the bass guitar anyway.
Despite being a committed tube amp player, I'm definitely on the lookout for a box that I can replace my rig with if I don't want to lug a bunch of stuff. The tech has got so good that you can get all of the sound you want taking only a guitar in a case or gig bag with a rig replacement box in the bag. Then we can finally turn up to gigs like trumpet players do.
Beautifully presented! Thank you.
You’re right.. I learn much more by working out the shapes myself..👍🏼
Thanks.!
Best triad lesson I have seen to date. Thank so very much.
The better I have become on Guitar, the more I realize just how OUTSTANDING Adrian is as a Teacher !
Thank you Adrian, this is such a great lesson on the all important use of Triads!
As far as ACCOMPANIMENT?
The guys I jam with once in a while love the fact that I am accompanying them fluidly without stepping on their playing through the use of Triads!
What a great lesson for all players…quintessential for any rhythm guitarist at the very least. Thanks🎸
Great one Adrian. I can really relate on how i actually use triads in improv as much if not more than scale. You can do anything with triads inversions, they should be taught before scale. Great video :)
Really helpful stuff here, Sir. Thanks very much for this useful lesson.
Great teaching video. One of the best I’ve ever seen that brings the triad concept with a musical demonstration. You are more interested in relaying the teaching method rather than showing off. Massive kudos for that. You area fantastic teachers and I have subscribed to this channel as a result. Again thank you this clears up a lot of the mystery of triads.
Really simple and nice ideas! Got a lot of fun playing your suggestions. Thanks! 🙏
Without doubt the best triad lesson on utube. Thank you.
Great lesson, as usual! I subscribed and became a Patreon several months ago, and in that short time, I progressed far more as a guitarist than I ever had before. The lessons are clearly and patiently explained by very clearly by Adrian, who is a fantastic guitar player,. Special bonuses are provided for Patreons (for any monthly amount you may wish to contribute), including, but not limited to awesome backing tracks. Highly recommended@
Yet another fantastic lesson… Thank you Adrian!
My favorite teacher!! Thank you Adrian!!
Greetings from Seattle Adrian. This is great. Love that fretboard on your Telecaster. I second the Maurice Deebank FELT suggestion
You have a very special gift, and way of sharing it! Endless Thank Yous!
Thanks a lot...probably the best video I have seen on using triads.
The Tele thru the vox sounds delicious. They both have amazing tone.
I use the triads all the time to occupy different sound positions within the song. They are great for staying out of the way. Great info.
Well put. They sound nice, add nice accompaniment and don't dominate
Hey thanks for this video. I have been studying triads and didn't know what to do with them. Now I have a plan. Many thanks again
Thanks so much for sharing this. Best triad lesson on the net.
I'm just starting on the ukulele, both the tenor and baritone. This was very helpful, merci beaucoup,
This lesson is pure gold. Thanks.
I love that feeling when things are coming together. Brain and fingers. Thanks.
Excellent video. I remember trying to learn this stuff from a book when I was a kid and it was very daunting! Thankfully we have CZcams these days!
Love this channel. Very dry sense of humor......”some guitar techniqueey type things”. Super chill coolness
Thanks so much for the lessons it’s hard to catch up at times but this is very understandable
Great lesson for any guitarist. Also, I love that Tele! The dark-stained neck is gorgeous.
This is phenomenal mate. Thanks a bunch.
Good info and beautiful tone from your guitar, thanks.
Yeah! you rock, awesome guitarrist and channel!
John Coltrane loved triads. Especially the 4 and 5.
Cheers for this.
Excellent! I love triads although I am not fluent as I would like to be. One of my top songs I used some basic triads as backing chords then had a world class guitarist improvise over them and it was wonderful. Plus triads can break you out of the hum-drum “cowboy chords” and “bar chords”.
I really enjoyed this video. Thank you. A great instructional video
Great lesson! It's right on with where I am in my playing!
Excellent video. Wished I had known the connections 40 years ago. Better late than never! Thanks!
This is an excellent explanation of triads you're a very good teacher
It has taken me months to appreciate this lesson. Something starting to click. Thank you for opening up my mind.
You are a great teacher...I've been trying to get triads for a good bit... but you got thru
This is great! I'll add it to my practice routine!
Excellent lesson-- months of information. So well presented I followed you to Patreon.
Beautiful tone, I could listen all day.
Great video / lesson was only thinking about triads so that will keep me busy for a while 👍👍👍
Awesome content here. Congrats, my friend!
This is very inspiring to me, thank you very much!
Very useful stuff. I play nylon string guitar and this sounds great there too. Thanks.
Always great lessons, but this one is genius. Very much appreciated.
First time viewer and have to say, that was a damned good tutorial. Very useful indeed. Thanks.
Agree with the comments. You’re a great teacher. Nice chill vibe.
thx mate - great lesson. always worth rechecking triads.
YOU Sir! Are a Gentleman and a Scholar! Thank you for all your info.
Thank you. Will try harder to learn this year.
great teaching and a great motivator.......thanks!
💚💚💚 great stuff! Thank you for sharing!
Awesome lesson Adrian!
FANTÁSTICO! Obrigado Anyone!
Good instructive video..I started using triads after studying 1 Country Blues/folk & open tunings 2 Soul/ Funk/Jazz 3 The guitar playing of Jimi Hendrix. This was before tutorials became widely available. Today I rarely use Barre chords finding them clumsy except for heavy rock/power chords. Moving from a barre chord to a solo, in my opinion, is less smooth. Other players may disagree. Cheers.
I'm just onto triads great lesson thanks Colin UK 🇬🇧 👍
