- Here's my take on learning basic triads and how important they are to opening up the fingerboard and building simple chords. This is directly related to playing lead guitar guys! Hope you enjoy it.

Who else has this video on repeat so we can watch this lesson over and over?
These are the prime secrets of guitar. Thank you Guthrie Trapp.
Me
I just saved this video on my things to practice every day compilation!! I don't know how I stumbled onto Guthrie but I'm glad I did!!! He also mentioned Bruce Foreman(jazz Guy) whom I also like his playing so that's a plus!!! thank you for making these videos Guthrie!
This guy really gets to the essentials of mastering the fretboard, everything he said right here is to the point and valuable, feel lucky to have his videos as a resource, it will make me a better player
I feel the same. It seems to come effortlessly to him. I study this stuff too and I am nowhere near as good as he is. Do you like CAGED? Do you know all the notes on the fretboard? Learning both, and some licks is my current endeavor.
“There’s a lot of guitar in that space.” I love that line. Thanks for showing us
these hidden gems up and down the neck of the guitar.
Joelikesguitar Thanks man!!
You are the best man. So down to earth and humble. I got serious about guitar about four yrs ago diving into scales and such. I recently finally devoted myself to triads and my guitar life has changed completely. I don’t read music or anything, but it’s so true to say how triads open everything up and essentially result in a closer intimacy with the notes on the neck and all the connections to chords and scales. Progressions and leads just wash over you. Triads triads triads!
That triad change for the dominant 7th and major 7th, from major. Is priceless for me today. I’ve hit a wall with the guitar, wanted to be a blues man. So like every one else learnt all the pentatonic scales and shapes. And wasn’t ever playing the changes. I could hear the notes in the pentatonic, but never played the change. So have recently resolved myself to learn the triads. Have only been doing major and minors trying to sing them and play them and trying to call out the thirds and fifths. To get my ears more able to hear the inversions. All feels clunky, but understand as you mention in the vid. You have to put the work in. But that one little trick a turned a light on. On;y just found you and Tom, from the Brad pappa footage of that gig you did for in stereo. I’m 52 and the only music I’ve ever heard that moved me before was from the 70s. You two are the only two musicians I can think of that put me in that space. Who are current and best of all open and transparent about their craft. And share like you do. Been a rough three years been a black dog on my tail. But you two made see. The guitar is a place you can put that negativity and learn to smile again.
Thank you both.
For as long as you don’t see 60% of comments saying that you talk too much, keep doing those nice videos the way you do. 🤓
Nikoo033 Ha! Thanks man!!
You do not talk to much ! It’s great that you explain in detail ! 😎
Brilliant as always. If some guy says you talk too much, then take no heed, thats BS. Your explations are excellent and in plain speak, which makes what you say logical and completely fit. After 40yrs of playing, Im hanging off your every word-I wish I had known then what Im learning from you now. I thought I was a decent player but I was missing so very much. Sorted now though. Thanks so much for what youre doing.
Tony Leary Well thanks a bunch man! That means a lot.
I feel the same way, to me it’s straight to the point no nonsense valuable information that we can immediately apply
crazy because when I first saw you on Broadway playing with Don K I asked you if you were mainly playing out of the chord, and here you are teaching chord tones, but you keep your lines connected and employ alot of guitar techniques
This lesson is worth in gold. If you want to take your guitar playing to next level. Watch this video, and everything Guthrie shows here. If you dont understand something rewind and watch again until you do. Dont go to the next lesson or video. This concepts will take a while to sink in under fingers. Important part is that you understand the idea and then work on it until you dont have to think about it on the guitar. Guthrie thank you, you are a great player and teacher!
Thanks a bunch man!! You are right, this is crucial.
Very good stuff here folks. It don't get no better than this. Get the information, if you take your time and watch/listen and learn what he's offering here it could last you a lifetime. Keep in mind this is how he makes his living, so show some gratitude and give back. No I do not know him personally, but what I do know is that what he's teaching is worth something.
And by the way Guthrie, you do not talk to much. 😆 just the opposite in my opinion, the more you talk the more we understand.
This is the real deal teaching here. If you want to know your instrument better learn what he's showing you in this video.
Thanks Guthrie
Thank you so much man!! Means a whole lot.
Light Bulbs going off!!! It just makes so much sense now...keeps me going Guthrie. Thanks mate. Cheers Marty from Melbourne.
Martin Gale Great!! Thanks man!!
3 month ago i strugle, but now i "see triads" .. great practice lesson ..open new world..Break down Big Barre chords 1 3 5 and u got triads.beautifull
People that say you talk too much are idiots. Either they know the material or not. If they already know it, they should move to your next lesson. If they need to learn it, they should sure as hell listen to your wisdom and amazing teaching approach. Keep doing it man!
This is one of those videos that connected a bunch of different things for me. Mind blown.
Alex Hanger Great!! Thanks man!!
Triads are so important!! Great lesson!!
Guthrie shows you that once you know the rules, you can break the rules…
Probably the best instructional video I’ve seen in 50 years of guitar playing …
If I ever meet you Guthrie, I will bring a bottle of VSOP Cognac ….
Music is the true religion…
This is a top notch lesson i paid to learn alot of what is in this video. I hope ppl realize how important this lesson is.
Joey Farley Thanks a lot man!!
Thank you so much for your generosity and knowledge! My favorite teacher on UA-cam!
Jorey Reitman Thanks man!!
Many great players don't, but Guthrie has the gift as a teacher as well as being a great player.
Not only a great player but a great teacher. Rare.
Guthrie Trapp and Corey Congilio, my favourite teachers and helluva players!
I am on month 3 of the ArtistWorks material and this all fits together. Wish this was around when I was younger. My wife calls it my self indulgent routine. LOL. Having fun.
Michael P Awesome! Thanks a bunch man! Spread the word! 😎👍🎶
you're the kind of teacher I wish I had when I was a teenager. I'd probably be playing a guitar for a living as well.
Thanks a bunch man!! Happy to do some lessons with you also.
Blown away! Don’t listen to the haters. No shortcuts advice! That is what is exactly missing in youtube! Thanks
samiebuka Thanks man!! 😎👍🎶
This is so great. I'm driving a truck while listening and it make sense.
Thank you!
6 hours later...i have finish to learn the 40 sec of your improvisation. Thanks so much to help me understanding my favorite instrument. Your generosity is awesome. Best regards from france.
Thanks Guthrie when I listen to you I know my guitar playing is gonna move to another level, you make so much sense
Duncan Graver Thanks so much man!!
You the man. I have been playing for years doing double stops, triple stops, and quad stops, but just now finding out what Triads are called. Sort of funny. You are a great teacher and musician.
This is the single greatest guitar lesson video ever produced and that the is the absolute truth.
This one video has got some major light bulbs of understanding going on for me. Thanks Guthrie. Anytime I see a notification that you've posted a new video I stop what I'm doing and watch.
Jeff Hight Awesome man!! Thanks !!
You are really teaching very well in This video of moving the triads,Guthrie. Any one who says you don’t teach on your You Tube videos is a fool or ignorant of the guitar👍👏
Jim from Western PA
I've likely commented on this video before and for me it's perfect exercise work, but I can see many of us will be overwhelmed by the amount of complexity that it "seems" to represent. But, guys, that is what the stop button is for. Use it! STOP and go back, over and over if necessary because this is the stuff we all need to get. Don't give up. Go as slow as you need. Learn a bit and hold on that until it sticks. Come back tomorrow and go over it again and learn some more!
GT has changed the way I play- it's not just the theory of playing and how different strands of knowledge relate to one another but he doesn't overlook the mechanics of playing either. I haven't come across anyone else on UA-cam with that combination. I have been playing for nearly 40 years and I learn something new each video.
David Campbell Wow. Thanks so much man!! Means a lot.
I'm actually starting to understand how to sound good when I play, instead of guessing, I've been playing for over 30 yrs but now I'm progressing, thanks for the lesson
Guthrie's Artist Works Online Curriculum is a amazing learning platform. Just started the beginner section on lesson 12 and it has been a amazing eye opener
Donland landdon Awesome man!! Thanks a bunch.
Another super useful & insightful lesson, you are a wise and generous man G.T. Thanks. & you don't talk to much!
batstube Thanks a bunch man!!
I'm gonna have to watch this another hundred times or so, there is just so much in there to apply. You say that you don't talk much about theory, but your perspective is theory interpreted(I think I just made that one up, sounds true so I'm sticking with it!). Hearing/seeing how you connect caged positions, broken chords, triads and scales lights up a road for me to follow. Thanks GT this was great lesson 👍
It will click! Thanks a bunch man!!
Guthrie...thanks so much, I’ve played over 30 years and this nails it regardless of where your at.
As always thanks Guthrie... funny how often I hear teachers explaining that the chords up the neck have everything to do with lead playing because I'm no pro but I do understand that you have to be able to see those notes. I'm working on it every day.
Jeremy Gayness Thanks man! It does work. It’s everything.
Awesome stuff Guthrie, thanks for posting these videos!
Thank you man, this is great stuff!!!
So. Damn. Useful. Thanks for inviting us, Guthrie!
Patrick Carroll Thanks man!!
Fantastic lesson. Thank you and Happy Christmas.
Thanks for all these instructional vids. You ROCK!
Great stuff. Thanks Mucho. 🙌
Didn't sleep very well last night so I'm not counting on learning a whole lot, but I saw GT with a 335 and I had to click it. I doubt anything is going to stick to my brain this go around, but you are always a pleasure to watch and listen to, Mr Trapp. I hope you are doing well!
Really helpful Guthrie. Thanks man.
Excellent video! Thanks for sharing your knowledge.
Great Lessons... very helpful and greatly appreciated!
Wish we had UA-cam and access to such great players like you back in the 90s when I was starting. Thanks a million
Loving the content on your videos, precisely the concepts Im hoping to grasp so please keep them coming. thanks for sharing
I sure am glad that UA-cam keeps the content posted. I just went over this again. And your breakdown of the maj 7 minor 7 minor 3rd is so helpful. I know all of the arpeggios all over the neck so with this info now I can work on the root position, 1st inversion and 2nd inversion. Understanding where they are with ease. Guthrie you say you're not a music professor but you sure know how to breakdown and understand the whole layout of the guitar.
Great video man, opened my eyes to playing the changes 👍
Fantastic lesson. Thank you 💯🎸
Fantastic video! I love your approach to the fretboard and look forward to working on implementing these concepts. Thanks 🙏
What a nice gift…..Thank you for doing this!
Thank you! Your videos have helped me unlock the fretboard. You’re awesome! 😀
Another outstanding video! Thank you Guthrie Trapp! It’s always awesome when I end my shift at the hospital and find a new upload! Much obliged!
mike finn Thanks man!
Great lesson.You do a great job breaking it down.
Best understanding I've got and need. Everything right together. Hats off to you bruh.
This is pure gold! Thanks!
Thanks for sharing your knowledge and hard earned wisdom, It's very much appreciated 🙏🍻
Fantastic! Thank you!
Great breakdown Guthrie
Awesome lesson! Really good stuff. This will be a big help to my playing. Great exercise.
Thank you so much Guthrie 🤙🏽
Another Super practical lesson on how to! Thanks, generous!
Just amazing! The first teacher I've been able to really learn from. Bless you for giving so much to the world, Guthrie! Xo
You sir are a great teacher! Thank you so much for this video. A light bulb finally came on!
Forrest Campbell Thanks a ton man!! Great!!
Thanks Guthrie, your work is much appreciate it.
Hey man! Thank you! These videos have been so informative. You explain concepts in a simple way that doesn't make my head hurt which definitely helps. I've got a lot of practicing and application ahead of me but I feel like I have a more defined direction now thanks to your videos. Thanks again, man!
If I’m understanding things...the key is knowing where the 1,3,5 is of the chord you are playing over all over the the neck and then using other intervals to add flavor, but trying to emphasize the main triad in each chord as safe tones.
Qstick333 Yes. That’s the idea. Those key chord tones are where you want to start and end for the most part.
Cheers Guthrie, pure gold
Absolute gold this lesson, thanks Guthrie
One of the best lessons I have seen!
Great lesson, simple, to the point.
This video is incredible. Saving this to come back to again and again.
Excellent coverage of triads
Insightful as always! great great ideas on seeing the whole fretboard . Guthrie, thank you for taking the time. key for me is im always learning something new about the guitar.
You my friend have a majestic connection to the Guitar
Another amazing lesson, thanks so much! Hearing what you do is fantastic - knowing why you do it is even more valuable so thanks for your explanations - you talk just the right amount! ;-) (also from England)
Thanks Guthrie,man that is gold and you not being greedy means a lot to us ,sharing all that knowledge,now is up to us to develop our skill is just put this to practice and work hard!!!
Thank you for this lesson.
Jim
Brilliant lesson! This unlocks so much information - if you are patient and practice it. Thank you Guthrie!! 👍
You're a great teacher Guthrie! Very well explained.
This has been a great lesson Guthrie, Thanks! I will have to listen again with a guitar in hand.
So great stuff Guthrie! It changed your life and now it is changing mine also ...
This was an incredibly helpful lesson for me. Thanks so much.
Thanks for the great lesson...
Very good teaching. Caught you on Tim Pierce's channel. Awesome skills and tasty chops! Please keep teaching on UA-cam Brother! Love these lessons! Thank you!!!|
Great Video! Highlights how much seeing triads up and down is super important.
Guthrie and Ford Thurston are bringing you tube lessons to a more advanced level, and I love it
Gary Eggleton Thanks man!!!
Wow, Guthrie actually makes learning this stuff fun! Thank you!
Superb lesson, thanks Guthrie. it's starting to click!
Hi Trapp,Ur words r straight to the point wrapped with sincerity and love.
it is an honour to learn from u as u laid me into the real groove of guitar playing.
Thank you for your channel. For some reason you are the first one I really connect with to better understand theory and applying it.
Thanks Guthrie! Always nice to see how to apply these tips to actual playing, I wish I had learned them when I was younger!
Tim Newman Thanks man! Never too late!!
Thank you, Guthrie. You are very generous in sharing your knowledge and experience. I have a similar approach to seeing the fretboard, but you give a very practical system of how to have command over the changes.
Great lesson Guthrie you must do more , it has explained a lot to me.
You’re a great teacher my friend. Making sense after all these years!
That was epic! Lots to digest. I'm gonna analyze this at half speed and really digest what you're saying. Great stuff my friend!
Thanks a lot for this Guthrie. Opening up a whole new understanding of the neck for me, down here in Melbourne Australia.
