3 Ways To Create Great Sounding Music Using Triad Chord Shapes On Guitar

- In this video, you learn how to use triads to create music on guitar.
Triads are great for opening up the whole fretboard to you as far as chords are concerned.
But once you have the triad chord shapes down, what do you do with them?
In this lesson, you learn several ways to use triads in the context of rhythm guitar playing. I will show you 3 ways to use triads via 3 different chord progressions.
Application 1: Strumming/Picking
Here, you learn how to apply triads to an existing chord progression and ways in which to strum and pick them
Application 2: Side Slipping
This application involves the approach of side slipping to add interest to the sound of the triads. We will do this in the context of a blues progression
Application 3: Extensions/Ornamentations
Finally, you learn how to add extensions to your triads for a great sound reminiscent of guitar players such as John Frusciante of the Red Hot Chilies Peppers

Wonderful explanation. Only the essentails including the important theory without getting into the weeds. Also, VERY practical.
@jakyru1981, glad you liked the lesson and appreciate you dropping by to comment :)
Hi, Simon. I’m enjoying the lessons because I’d like to be able to improvise. I’d like a study on turning triads into triad cadences.
@DancingPony1966-kp1zr, glad you are enjoying the lessons :) Can you elaborate on what you mean by turning triads into triad cadences?
Incredibly helpful lesson! You are a brilliant teacher!
@darenanderson1960, thank you very much! Glad you found the lesson helpful :)

@jonlarsen3090, you are very welcome! :)
Thanks really great video
You are very welcome Rob! :)
Thank you , I have looking for ways to start playing up the neck , this is a great introduction !
@1allstarman, you are very welcome! :)
Hi Simon. Thanks for sending the link to this video in a previous comment I made on your initial triads video. Great video and this gives me so much to work with and a great place to start from as I continue to explore triads on the guitar fretboard as well as it will enhance my understanding of the guitar neck so I don't primarily stay with open chords in the first few frets of the guitar. It will also allow me to have a starting point for adding ornamentation and embellishments to my playing to make it more interesting. Additionally it will give me a great starting point to begin a little lead guitar type phrase learning.
I like the way you teach. You show concepts, explain them well, and then provide application. From the way you present it makes it understandable how we can then take these concepts / techniques and explore them further without fear. :)
Thanks again!
You are very welcome Kevin :) Let me know how you get on with the triads
thanks again Simon! Excellent!
You are very welcome! :)
Very informative! Thank you
You are very welcome Scott! :)

Amazing lesson Simon
Thank you @MrNgcovelli
Hi Simon ,
Ready to advance my guitar into the world of Triads , great to have found your lesson , really helped ,
Cheers Gary.
@garythompson4103, great to hear! Check this lesson out too if you haven't already as it will lay the foundation for triads: czcams.com/video/lNFv-potxVw/video.html
Ther are some other videos on triads on the channel too :)
Cool , 👍
Gidday from NZ, great lesson. I've been messing with triads for a while and have focused on working thru the chords in one position (close voicing?) . I use a looper for backing tracks and you have given me some new sounds to work with, cheers. Lovely Maton btw
Thanks for checking out the video Mario and glad it has provided you with some ideas for using triads! Glad you like the Maton. I've had it for about 20 years. It is an EM325C. They don't make this model anymore, but has been a great guitar for me
Simon- thank you! I’ve been playing guitar for over 50 years and recently have become bored with what I do and know. I use open tunings often to create a different sound. But, This is what I needed. I’ve been seeking a way to make my songs in standard tuning more interesting. Anyway, I will be watching more. Do you have a source where all the triads are written or tabbed on the neck? I’m looking for something visual to practice with.
Again thanks Lori
@loriporter6244, thank you! I am glad you found this lesson helpful.
Here are the other triad videos I currently have on the channel:
This first one maps out the major and minor triad shapes on each stringiest. If you click the link in the first comment below the video you'll be taken to a page on my website with diagrams for each triad:

Hi Simon have just come across your Triad lessons and for the first time I really get it. Your explanations and examples are first class and so easy to understand together with the way you build one lesson onto another so that the triad playing can be progressed.
Still just learning on the first three strings but hope in time to learn triad shapes across the fretboard.
Do you have any lessens on Double stops which I also would like to be able to play?
Bill
Hi Bill, great to hear you have found this lesson useful for your playing! :)
I do have a lesson on double stops which you can access here: czcams.com/video/e9lMzOf21WA/video.html
I also have another lesson using rhythm fills that you might like here: czcams.com/video/EZYix-4cijI/video.html
Let me know what you think and if you have any questions :)
Hi
I really like this and your other lessons. Very well done and clear presentation.
Just one thing. Do you have the backing tracks for these triads, or where can we find them?
Thanks for your lessons
Hi Andrew, glad you liked the lesson and found dit helpful :) I don't have the backing tracks on hand. You could take the principle of what I am doing here and apply it to relevant backing tracks on YT. This would really help you solidify the concepts n this lesson. I did make the backing tracks with GarageBand, so you could do similar too :)
Thank you for the lesson Simon ! hahah just wanted to pointed out that the last riff sounded like snow hey oh from the chili peppers !
You are welcome zachh :) ha ha, yes it did!
This is brilliant way of learning ---thankyou so much Simon ---finally I can d/load the tab without problems like the feared patreon page on other vids--(grumpy Brian at Active Melody )--wants $ payments for tabs --
from aging pensioners in Africa !)
You are very welcome! :)
Now I get it, Triads
Great to hear Tony! :)
Hi Simon, Al here, I really was going to sign up. I believe that every single penny spent on your courses are worth it. That is my honest opinion. But here comes the big But, I just can’t afford it sorry 😢 😢. Al.
😢
It's like "3 Ways To Create Great speech using "the", "...ing" and "...out" letters combinations. Triads are just three notes like any others. So called "triads" just a sub-sequence of "voicing" and "inversion". And "inversion" of chords is strait forward consequence of "interval" nature of harmony/consonance. Once you've told about _intervals_ and consonance : you already closed the theme of inversions, chord voicing, augmented and diminished chords and _ALL_ over it. But it's like a subject for 5 minutes to mention about. And CZcamsrs will run out of headers immediately.... The only reason why such videos exist is that CZcamsrs are out of subjects to discuss but still HAVE TO make more videos. You might make "how to create melody with three random notes" video by the exact same reasons of the same purpose. When you see ANYTHING like this in video titles - that''s the great sign you have to block this channel to not waste your time. Because they are useless. They exist because of CZcamsRS, not because of music or harmony or guitars.
@SugarTouch, LOL!
The topic of triads and using them to create music predates CZcams and the internet. I can assure you there is more to learn about guitar than you could fit in a single lifetime, so no problem running out of topics.
And triads are not just 3 notes like any others as you say, they happen to be the chord tones that are important when it comes to soloing, and to have a way to target these chord tones through triads is very useful.
