You explained something that has completely bamboozled me for a very long time in a simple understanding way that every other UA-cam teacher has failed. Thank you so much 😊
Very good; he starts mapping the fretboard and ends up revealing the caged system. Let me tell you; I'm no beginner but I can say that this guy is a great teacher for those that have just entered the guitar rabbit hole, and are nervously learning how deep it goes.
As someone who's been dabbling at guitar for years, I found this to be one of the clearest tutorials I have ever seen. Way to keep it simple while being immensely informative.
Nice break down of triads and how they are laid out across the fretboard. It took me years and years to understand the value of triads. My life as a guitar player could have been a lot less frustrating if I would have learned this lesson when I first picked up a guitar. Beginner's take note.
This is the first time I’ve come across your channel. Yours is, quite simply, the BEST 👌explanation about triads I have ever seen. You are a very gifted teacher and should have 100s of 1000s (or millions) of subscribers. I wish you every success and phenomenal growth. You deserve it. And learner guitarists deserve you! 😎✌️
THE BEST LESSON I HAD ON GUITAR, PERIOD! YOU DID NOT JUST GIVE ME A LESSON ON TRIAD, YOU TAUGHT ME THE UNDERSTANDING OF THE WHOLE FRETBOARD IN THE SIMPLEST WAY THAT OTHER UA-camRS HAD FAILED TO DO. THANK YOU AND HAPPY NEW YEAR 2025!
Thank you !! I know some triads but this video has really made things so much clearer for me showing how triads connect to chords and CAGED shapes.. Good job. I can't wait to watch more of your videos. Craiog Ewinger
Damn, when you took the blue note from 6 to the first string and it looped back to the original blue from the chord I was blown away. Amazing demonstration.
You're an awesome teacher and you just gave me a good understanding on how the fretboard works! Now I finally understand how CAGED system works and how to find these triads. Thank you and God bless.
I think this is likely the best pattern video for triads I've run across. Combining this with knowing the root or learning the notes of the chords is great. Thanks for posting.
Outstanding explanation of triads, thank you! I’ve been in search of some guidance to triads outside of strings 1-2-3 and this draws it out perfectly. Lightbulb moment, can’t thank you enough.
I love playing triads and the open, airy simple sound it gives players. Your video was very informative. I've been playing for 24 years and it's always great to learn new ways of seeing.
Another fantastic lesson. You are incredible at explaining in a clear and concise manner. I saw a comment on the first video of yours that I watched only yesterday that said you are the best guitar teacher on UA-cam. I'm only 2 videos in and can already say I've learned more from you in such a short space of time than I have from any other channel. Much appreciated!!
Your series and everything you do is awesome. You really do take the mystery out of it and you make it fun and open up opportunities to play in different ways or to look at music in different ways. What a gift thank you.
Hey brother. I’ve been trying to understand triads for a long time. None of the videos I watched clicked with me. I came across your’s randomly. Finally, after spending hours and not getting it, I watched you and everything fell into place. Between the explanation, and the visual charting it seems so easy. Thank you very much for this. You have a new follower.
As someone new to the guitar and in my mid 60’s I found it very helpful in the way you simplified the lesson great stuff I look forward to your next video
Quite a unique way to teach it, but one of the BEST videos i've seen on Triads. It matches how my brain works. I think it's a must watch if you know a little about triads, but other tutorials aren't doing it for you. This is a great way to visualize the fretboard.
The floodgates of my mind have literally been blown wide open. I too have watched many other vids on this topic but this is the best hands down. I will be watching many more of your videos. I can’t thank you enough!!!!!❤. BTW I love seeing the caged system just appear before my eyes.
From reading the comments below I see I am not the one who thinks you made this lesson just for me. I never got it until you explained it. Great minds think alike. Thank you for this and all the other lessons on your channel. Big thumbs up from me!
About a week ago I watched your CAGED video. I encourage every to watch it. BUT TODAY I WATCHED YOUR TRIADS VIDEO! CLASSIC! YOU EXPLAING CLEARLY IN YOUR VIDEOS. THANK YOU!!! I will eventually watch all your videos. I will purchase your book soon.
Your teaching on the triads and how the caged system is formed is the clearest so far in my opinion. To further add that the triads are formed by the 1st, 3rd and 5th notes of the scale of each note would also be informative.
I am watching this again. I am around the five minute mark. Wish I would have found you or your method years ago. Would have save so much time and money. No one teaches this stuff. Simply amazing.
This is by far one of the best videos I have seen on triads and a little about the CAGED system. The concept is new to me but I can understand it because he is a great teacher!
Thank You for a very simplicitic way to move around the fretboard, without getting too overwhelmed with theory. You explained it in a Less is Always More way to keep us from getting too confused, and remembering a bunch of info. Bah Bah Boom !!!
wow this has opened my eyes on a different level, i wanted to say much more but seems like everyone here has already beat me to the punch, so on behalf of me and my fellow guitar students/players THANK YOU!!!!!
I wish I found this video earlier in my guitar journey… But I’ll still claim a success, as any lesson is better for reinforcing what knowledge I have about any subject. This video is well thought out and extremely useful for visual learners. It takes a simplistic approach without applying an abundance of music theory. For any beginner, that’s a major plus. Mad kudos! I’m subscribing!
Killer vid, Super understandable. I went to my guitar and started soloing b4 finishing the lesson. (however I did complete.) And I been playing for years. Gonna follow more stuff. Knowing them on piano triads and now able to show on guitar too. PRICELESS. Thanks man.
May i pay tribute… This is for me the very best informative video out there on triads, beautifully explained in a simple manner. I’ve struggled time and time again to understand triads etc, but not anymore.. Thank you..
I have played guitar for almost 50 years. i never knew what double stops were for decades. then i found out it was just two notes, which is what i learned is called a Dyad.
Same for me and I’ve been playing for around 40 years. To be fair, I was about 20 or 25 years in when I learned what they were lol, but still way too long
The manner of presenting the strings and their relationship to each other was revelation for me. Now my scales including the various modes are easier to navigate up and down the neck.
Just wanna echo others comments on making the CAGED more useful! Ive watched tons of other caged and triad videos but yours CLICKED..I still have a lot to make it solid in my brain but I just too a screenshot of the colorized fretboard and that will be my new Bible..!! Thanks so much and Ill be a new subscriber for sure!
Oh you're going to breeze through it!! Being a drummer rhythm is already there which, in my opinion, is the most important thing❤️ I appreciate you taking the time to comment and watch, Sean😃
As one would say, every person interoperates the learning process differently. Some visually, others use a combination of visual illustrations and theory combined to achieve that knowledge. Thank you for a well-illustrated presentation for all concern. Keep rocking brother.
Excellent explanation. It seems the next hurdle is getting them under your fingers without having to consult a white board. Probably not too bad if you stick to it for a couple weeks. The ultimate goal - and one worth a video - would be how to find chords in close proximity to the triad you are playing. That's when this lesson becomes useful.
Oh my god!!! What an effort to make a crystal clear tutorial. What a legend. Salute to you sir 🫶
Absolute fantastic lesson. This is the first time this whole triad thing has made sense
Superb, Don!! So happy this video helped you🤗
You explained something that has completely bamboozled me for a very long time in a simple understanding way that every other UA-cam teacher has failed. Thank you so much 😊
This is awesome, Robert! I'm so happy for you ❤️ Thank you so much for your comment. It means a lot.
I 100% agree. Now I understand how a triad is built!! FINALLY! Thank you soooooo much!
Sad to admit, 36 years playing and TIL wth CAGED actually means and how triads are built. Thank You!
LIKEWISE!
Very good; he starts mapping the fretboard and ends up revealing the caged system.
Let me tell you; I'm no beginner but I can say that this guy is a great teacher for those that have just entered the guitar rabbit hole, and are nervously learning how deep it goes.
One of the crispest lessons I found on triads. Oodles of appreciation from the south west coast of India
Thank you so much, Jay!! I appreciate you too from Spain🤗

I have watched what feels like hundreds of video's on the fretboard and finding triads and this hands down was the simplest explanation.
I appreciate it, David!
agree , helps alot
Damn, when you took the blue note from 6 to the first string and it looped back to the original blue from the chord I was blown away. Amazing demonstration.
Let's go!! So happy this made sense💪 Thank you so much for taking the time to comment. It means a lot to know it helped you.
Very helpful! Been playing 35 years and trying to learn this. Thanks for putting it so simply
Yes! So happy this video helped you, Murray❤️

Thank you for watching! And for taking the time to comment. It means al lot❤️

Aw, thank you so much!!! I really appreciate you taking the time to write this. It means a lot.
That's amazing. I've been playing for 38 years and never learned an easy way to find triads. Thanks!
So happy this works for you!!! Awesome!
Awesome now I have an understanding of triads and how they relate to caged system shapes
Thanks, I had watched other videos that talked about CAGED but never quite understood. This made everything very clear.
This is wonderful🎉 Thank you so much for watching and for your comment. ❤️ So happy it helped.

Thanx for sharing, it is exciting. I will definitely check it out and soak it up, awesome stuff.
Fantastic, Phillip! Thank you so much for watching and for your comment❤️
You couldn't have explained it better. Thankyou so very much.
Thank you so much! ❤️
Breaking it down to two string pairs is like unlocking the fretboard. Mind blown! Thanks Den.

This is really magic to me!! I've been playing guitar and never thought of it this way. MUCH BETTER!
Awesome job. To get it through to my thick head is quite an accomplishment. Thank you. Im subscribing.
Awesome, Dennis! Thank you so much for the love🎉

Wow your teaching method has really lit up the fretboard, this has helped with connecting the shapes along the board, thank you 👏❤️
Thank you! It's awesome to hear this video helped you❤️
Thank you. I know understand, awesome. You are a great teacher.

The manner of presenting the strings and their relationship to each other was revelation for me. Now my scales including the various modes are easier to navigate up and down the neck.

I really appreciate your logical explanation on Triads. Thank you.
Thank you Bill! I appreciate you too😃
Good stuff. Take it another step and show how these triads are movable, thus defining ALL triads anywhere.
Awesome, Richard! I was thinking of part 2 being moving the blue note to make them minor😃
A great new perspective on how triads and caged octaves work together. Very logical m, simple and direct. Thank you
Glad you liked it! 😃🎸
Great simple instructions.
Thank you!!!
As someone who is aware they are using triads when playing, this really helped with clarity. Thanks
So happy to hear this video helped you❤️ I appreciate you taking the time to comment😊
As one would say, every person interoperates the learning process differently. Some visually, others use a combination of visual illustrations and theory combined to achieve that knowledge. Thank you for a well-illustrated presentation for all concern. Keep rocking brother.
