Corey I must say you not only a great guitar player and teacher a super human being for helping so many of us become a better player. Thanks for your contributions to the music community 😊
I must say this! Since I have been watching guitar tutorial on UA-cam, today I found a true teacher, whom God has bestowed upon with the teaching Spirit. I am humbled by your teaching skills.
As a pro photographer- and a "shit I wish I'd done guitar and song writing instead"- I can tell you that pedal is gonna take your job. This is a great Lesson! Thanks!
THIS LESSON!... WOW, I've been playing since the 70s and yet this is concept is a door opener for improvisation that has never been presented so clearly. THANK YOU Corey!
Best explanation on triads yet. Love how you tell us the note names not just the fret numbers. 70 thousand subscribers is way too few for the time and knowledge you share with us ,the least we could all do is share Corey's love of guitar with others.
I agree. If a person is discussing triads, Knowing the names of the notes is crucial . Or else you are really not understanding it, or learning anything. When it comes to understanding music theory, fret numbers mean nothing
I've been playing 31 years and I studied at one of the most prestigious music colleges in the UK for 6 years and I've never heard that explained so well, or explained like that. I'm going to go play with this concept 💗👍
This is one of the two ways of explaining this that works well and you’ve done a great job, in the jazz we they’re called extensions basically keep going up in thirds along the scale. If you follow the triad approach a bit further than he did here you’ll end up having a melodic minor sound with the minor chords
Seriously I feel like this is the missing link that I've been unable to grasp on my own in terms of learning to apply extensions in my impro, I'm completely mind blown here
Mega thanks to you sir. I've been playing 35 + years and this lesson truly opened up my soloing .I noblonger think in positions and am finally able to coast up and down the fretboard. That was the best lesson I've had in 35 yrs. 😊
This is just such an extraordinary lesson. It teaches how it all works and fits together and MAKES SO MUCH SENSE! I don’t have vocabulary to express how great this is. Corey, thank you from the heart of my bottom! You’re truly a phenomenal player AND instructor. This is the stuff that makes one want to practice. So grateful.
Hey Cory, I wanted to let you know the following: When my wife heard the intro licks (the first 30 seconds), she walked in and said Wow, I have never heard a PRS sound like this. I learned the first 30 second because it is so cool. I was determined to learn those beautiful notes..... ha ha it took me a week to get the muscle memory down. I got most of it and posted my own lesson on your first 30 seconds of your tutorial. Those arpeggios are so melodic.... Congrats!!
Yo Corey, I loved this lesson, it's one of your best lessons ever! What I took from this actually is not so much the "stacking" (major/minor or opposite), not even the chord extensions (7, 9, 11 ..), but I took how other chords relate to these extensions, how C brings in the flat 7, how Em brings in the 9, etc... This is really fantastic. I'll much appreciate you creating even more lessons to develop this idea further. Thanks much for this. One of the best lessons I've watched !
Bro thank you so much. I’ve had the same problem. I know my triads well but didn’t really understand how to make music with them. This really helped out.
As a Teacher, it really helps a student to play triads differently on how they used to play triads. It also allow you to leave the blues comfort zone. You free others from pentatonic jail.
New to this channel, and my experience as a teacher (not a guitar player lol), you do a great job explaining complex ideas in a simple way. Very well done! Subscribed.
I remember doing this instinctively years ago. I thought of it as playing the inversions of the Am7 chord by alternately starting on the one, three, five and seven. It's a good way to begin to understand modal playing. Arpeggiate the one, three, five and seven and you're wailing in the Dorian mode. That's when shit gets interesting!
Hey, Man, I'm one of Corey's online students and started playing, seriously, at the age of 64 and in about two years into his lessons I'm ahead of many of my younger and more experienced guitar player friends and they are now coming asking me questions (didn't expect that), so if you are not a monthly subscriber consider it it is a steal for what all he has to offer and his monthly online discussions is a blast and informative.
Corey pulls the curtain back on how triads work mightily in your favor. Suddenly, Larry Carlton seems human. LOVE when Corey says “…takes awhile.” Puts him in the woodshed with us.
Wow, great lesson, thank you so much Corey. I had been groping around in the dark trying to find that sound. You just turned on the lights. All the best, Mark.
Corey thanks for being a great guitarist but specially presenting guitar musical ideas and techniques in easy and practical ways that can be utilized immediately 👍👍👍🙂🙂
Another way of looking at this was introduced to me By Ian Scott who got it off Frank Gambale, who probably got it off someone totally great like Chick Corea. Learning about this opened the diatonic floodgates for me. Play the triads off the chord tones. What does that mean? Begin with the harmonised scale. For example, in C major the chords are: C, Dm, Em, F, G, Am, Bm7b5, C. You have to learn this series of chords and relate it to songs that use it eg You’re so Vain, Don’t Look Back in Anger: these songs use those chords. So, it’s jam night and you’re blues begins with Am7. The Am7 chord has the notes: A, C. E and G (notice the logic : thirds- you skip a letter eg A skip B then C etc.) Go back to your harmonised scale and you find you can play: Am, C, Em and G. Minor triad, major triad, minor triad, major triad… You’ve survived and you’re still in the jam and the band moves to Dm7, which has the notes D, F, A and C. Look at your list in the harmonised scale and you find you can play Dm, F, Am and C. Minor triad, major triad, minor triad, major triad. The band decides to play an F in your Am blues jam, just to throw you off. So you can play the triads: F, Am, C, Em… Play the triads off the chord tones. The band looks at you and they think you’ve had some guitar lessons. Or listened to Frank Gambale. Eric Clapton doesn’t know this shit and sells millions of records…
This is one aspect I have been stuck on is trying to get something musical out of these and with this lesson I now have a starting point that will only grow. Thank you very much for taking the time to do this.... very, very cool.
Man O Man did you ever open the window to let some fresh Air IN!! I've been playing for a very long time,then you plateau and figure "Fine, I'll satisfy myself with my limitations" still doing OK then I stumble upon this channel and there's My next Level. New sub here! Thanks alot.
Corey, you're an amazing teacher. This video has opened my ear and my eyes to this playing concept better than anything I've ever read or watched before. I feel like I truly leveled up after watching this and absorbing the lesson. Thank you so much for your generosity. I'm used to paying for lessons that aren't even half as good as what you presented here!
Those videos came out even earlier. I recall watching that Larry Carlton Hotlicks video over and over in 86 or 87. I couldn’t get enough of those concepts and they still sound fresh to me.
Brother... the theory has been taught so many times before, but your approach and explanation around the theory is perfect. It's friendly and perfect. You're a great teacher and excellent to listen to.
This makes so much sense, its actually incredible how simple it is while simultaneously adding so much complexity, i feel like im starting to get what Larry Carlton means when he says he basically only thinks about triads when doing solos
Like it makes it so easy to hear extensions for the chords because it's building on triads I already know instead of bonkers 7-tone arpeggios? Jesus my mind is melting here, I can't believe I can't touch my guitar before Saturday 😂 typical that I'm seeing this video while on vacation
You have a new subscriber. Funny enough while practicing triads I discovered recently when I move one note of a triad a step up in the scale I land on another triad, being 2 steps lower (C to A to F to D to B …) and you can travel all the way down the neck this way cycling through the scale. Way more musical and practical. This video perfectly taps into this.
Great lesson Corey - opened a new door for me - kindly supplying the backing track meant I could immediately start working on the material - THANK YOU ! - you are the BEST
I just started working on this a couple of weeks ago. I seen the utility of this kind of sound within an hour of working on it. It sounds so nice. Awesome lesson as always sir.
A mind-blowing lesson; thank you! But you've "spoiled" me: I've learned not to expect less, and you never disappoint. This goes well with your arpeggio course, which I'm thoroughly enjoying and would unequivocally recommend to anyone wanting to advance beyond the usual pentatonic noodling. Forza WCG !
Welp, now there’s a new “best triads lesson,” and I just watched it. Can’t wait for more on this in Working Class Guitar. Thanks, Corey. This is why I love being a WCG MVP.
Thanks Corey. I was getting bored playing those JJ Cale songs that the audience loves In London. This opens a new world of sound. I think JJ would approve of this.
This is a VERY high quality lesson. This is one of the best UA-cam guitar lessons I’ve come across, and I’m normally studying Beato and Tomo. As far as I’m concerned you’re their contemporary. You’ll be one of my go-to’s from this point on. Thank you so much, I’m going to try and incorporate this into my playing as quickly as possible.
Great lesson. I watched the Larry Carlton video where he explained the super aroeggio when it came out in VHS tape! God I'm old. Anyway i was confused on moving through 5ths instead of using the third. Thanks for making this concept so much clearer! Plus I'll second Corey's. recommendation on the Larry Carlton video. It is a little dated production wise but Mr Carlton unloaded a wealth of knowledge in those lessons. Thanks again!
I like to think of it as playing the Maj arp off of the minor third, Minor arp off the perfecf 5th, Major arp off the flat 7. Thinking about it around a root instead of stacking thirds is easier for me
So I discovered thru the years that I can mix major minor ( Am - C) but this lesson shoved me on off the cliff. Thanks so much for the stitches... Subscribed..
Wow! I’m an old dog and this is a new trick! Knowing majors and relative minors will be import. Never thought of packaging it this way. THANK YOU! Off to the basement I go to play!
Thank you Corey. First time I watched your videos. I know all of this because of Jazz studies, but the way you explain things are just very helpful, especially for those who want to know how to play. These days I work mostly as a composer and songwriter and apply a lot of this and other theory in the writing. Great advice and video man.
I've been working on learning triads for the past few months, but like others, didn't know how to incorporate them. Going to spend some time on this concept. Thanks!
This is the second lesson ever on triads that I've ever found useful. The first was the one you did about a year back where you were playing a funk blues rhythm with a C7 chord and throwing in a Gm and an Am triad to get these cool extensions. I agree with you, there's all these lessons, many by some big-name guitar masters, where they go on and on about how triads are everything, and then they demonstrate improvising with them by playing all these corny "Mary Had a Little Lamb" melodies. I mean, I get it that they're teaching you to crawl before you walk, but without explanations, like you give, that show you how you can take these things and make real music with them, I've never been particularly motivated to spend hours and hours practicing these things that seem like the musical equivalent of watching paint dry. Thanks for showing a bit of why doing so will ultimately pay off.
You've given me something to work on that will be fun and beneficial. Fun because it will be. Beneficial because I can use triads to learn where the notes are.
Always love your videos! When I played like that in the early 80s, I would get "nice playing Frampton" .....guilty as charged. Love that type of phrasing
So stoked to find this vid. I'm a bass player seeking to understand theory and fret board for the first time. This guitar video has opened my eyes immensely so thank you!
started using this right away, f'n awesome. Corey never fails to give us useful tools to improve our playing, he's the best. check out the by yourself blues course too, tons of useful stuff you can incorporate right away. thank you Corey!!!
Corey I must say you not only a great guitar player and teacher a super human being for helping so many of us become a better player. Thanks for your contributions to the music community 😊
My pleasure!
Totally agree

Yeah... super helpful..Thx so much👍
100% 😊
"Look, another happy triad friend" Awesome lesson! As a player entering the realm of triads this is the perfect stepping stone.
I must say this! Since I have been watching guitar tutorial on UA-cam, today I found a true teacher, whom God has bestowed upon with the teaching Spirit. I am humbled by your teaching skills.

He's got a great way of getting to the point with most concepts

This is the best, functional approach to triads I've seen yet. Super digestible and immediately incorporate-able into my playing. Thanks!
Glad you think so. That was the plan!
Just like a magician showing his tricks...Great great lesson. Thanks Corey !
Mega thanks to you sir. I've been playing 35 + years and this lesson truly opened up my soloing .I noblonger think in positions and am finally able to coast up and down the fretboard. That was the best lesson I've had in 35 yrs. 😊
I'm completely stunned how good this lesson is...! Exactly what I needed. 🙏 Best wishes from Germany
Great presentation of a technique used by one of the greats! You're an awesome guitar player and teacher. Thanks Cory.
Light bulbs everywhere!! What an amazing lesson. Thanks.
I really enjoyed this lesson. I like the sound you achieve like a jazzy blues. I would like more lessons on this concept using the Triads. Thank you.
More to come!
This is just such an extraordinary lesson. It teaches how it all works and fits together and MAKES SO MUCH SENSE!
I don’t have vocabulary to express how great this is.
Corey, thank you from the heart of my bottom!

I often watch your videos and think: gosh, this is so simple! (Though it’s not..) Amazing how easy you make things look. Thanks!
Dude I must say, you have the best ready-to-apply lessons ever. Thank you for what you do and massive fan here from the Philippines!
Hey thx! That’s the plan!

That was great… really inspires me to practice to expand my phrasing chops. Thank you for all these great lessons, I get a lot from them 👍
Corey pulls the curtain back on how triads work mightily in your favor. Suddenly, Larry Carlton seems human. LOVE when Corey says “…takes awhile.” Puts him in the woodshed with us.
His courses are great also. I am getting so much from them. Working class guitar.
Whoa! Corey, even by your high standard, this was an awesome lesson.
Wow, great lesson, thank you so much Corey. I had been groping around in the dark trying to find that sound. You just turned on the lights. All the best, Mark.
Glad to hear it!
This information and the presentation is pure friggin' GOLD bro Thank you so much. Gonna leave work early and go home and work on it.
The proverbial Light Bulb just turned on. Thanks for leading us out of the darkness!
Corey thanks for being a great guitarist but specially presenting guitar musical ideas and techniques in easy and practical ways that can be utilized immediately 👍👍👍🙂🙂

I have listened to Larry Carlton teaching triads and was left behind. I got your lesson immediately. Thanks!

Thanks so much Corey. No matter the theory you are sharing in your videos your chops and phrases in your demos are out of this world. So inspiring.

What a fantastically musical lesson this is, thank you Corey! 🏆
Some things really clicked for me with how you presented the content on this video....Thank You Corey!
You had me at "I nicked this from Larry Carlton!"... Great concept, well explained, subscribed!
Corey, this should be a lesson on its own.
Really useful way to look at navigating, in key, and in many different places.
Practice, practice - "Practice!
Great lesson. I watched the Larry Carlton video where he explained the super aroeggio when it came out in VHS tape! God I'm old. Anyway i was confused on moving through 5ths instead of using the third. Thanks for making this concept so much clearer! Plus I'll second Corey's. recommendation on the Larry Carlton video. It is a little dated production wise but Mr Carlton unloaded a wealth of knowledge in those lessons. Thanks again!
Best Triad soling video I've come across, EVER.... Thank you, Professor! You really are a great teacher.
Dang. Cracked windshield in the parking lot. LC is gold. Thanks,
I like to think of it as playing the Maj arp off of the minor third, Minor arp off the perfecf 5th, Major arp off the flat 7. Thinking about it around a root instead of stacking thirds is easier for me
Very nice instructional and musical Video on the triads being part of 7th chords with their options (9, 11, 13)
Cool, very appealing, thank u!
Oh man, I’ve been playing nothing but arpeggios for about 2 years, and you’ve just blown my mind... thank you
Best lesson I've seen in a while. I tried it yesterday and my wife commented how good it sounded. Thank you!
So I discovered thru the years that I can mix major minor ( Am - C) but this lesson shoved me on off the cliff. Thanks so much for the stitches... Subscribed..
We usually see this as a Jazz practice routine but don't know how to apply it. Thanks to this video 😀
Wow! I’m an old dog and this is a new trick! Knowing majors and relative minors will be import. Never thought of packaging it this way. THANK YOU! Off to the basement I go to play!
Corey always sounds so musical.
This is a phenomenal lesson. Love the triad to pentatonic idea. A++ really helpful for breaking out of the pentatonic or “chord tone” boxes
Amazing lesson, another "eye opener" that takes you to the next level!
this was a brilliant approach and lesson - love it- gonna dust off the looper to lay down backing. be🔔👍right here!
Thank you Corey. First time I watched your videos. I know all of this because of Jazz studies, but the way you explain things are just very helpful, especially for those who want to know how to play. These days I work mostly as a composer and songwriter and apply a lot of this and other theory in the writing. Great advice and video man.
Great lesson. Now it all makes sense. I still need to develop the skill to carry it off, but at least it makes sense now. Thank you.
Thank you for the great lesson, I have those same Larry Carlton DVDs, nice to get a refreshing lesson ..👍🎸
I've been working on learning triads for the past few months, but like others, didn't know how to incorporate them. Going to spend some time on this concept. Thanks!
Excellent!
Amazing how fast you bring me to a next level! What a master of a teacher & not to forget player ❤
I have to say… those solos sounded pretty smooth. Very tasty. Always been a big fan of yours, Corey. Thanks for the great lesson!
Hey thx!
This finally solves the arpeggio issue of sounding too much like practice and not musical.
This is a great lesson.
This is the second lesson ever on triads that I've ever found useful.

Thanks for showing a bit of why doing so will ultimately pay off.
Thanks for that and you nailed my motivation for making this lesson
WOW finally someone explains it in layman terms! THX
You've given me something to work on that will be fun and beneficial. Fun because it will be. Beneficial because I can use triads to learn where the notes are.
Sounding so beautiful I was waiting for someone to me this
Always love your videos! When I played like that in the early 80s, I would get "nice playing Frampton" .....guilty as charged. Love that type of phrasing
Great lesson Corey. Goes to the heart of how to use triads musically.
This is the sort of material I want to take and work with it until it sticks in my soul. Awesome Lesson, Dr. C!!!
This is TREMENDOUS, Corey. Amazing stuff!
So stoked to find this vid. I'm a bass player seeking to understand theory and fret board for the first time. This guitar video has opened my eyes immensely so thank you!
Astonishing! This lesson explained so much to me and took my playing a giant step forward. Thank you so much, Corey.🙏
I really like this video. I play many things on guitar, but I never really thought about it that way. Thanks
Such a lovely tone on that guitar.
Corey your channel is pure gold. So glad I have this content
Glad you enjoy it!
started using this right away, f'n awesome. Corey never fails to give us useful tools to improve our playing, he's the best. check out the by yourself blues course too, tons of useful stuff you can incorporate right away. thank you Corey!!!
Thanks for your playing. Great teacher. József Vilmann from Hungary.
thanks Corey (and Larry) very sophisticated sounds well broken down
