New to your channel. A very good video for a guitarist starting to learn improvisation. Look forward to more stuff to progress in my journey playing guitar.
making sense and pitched about right for my lower intermediate level. well structured and presented. subscribed and looking forward to using your content. Thx...keep it coming
Wow, thanks. It took you about 5-6 minutes to teach me something I've been searching for, for years. Lol, I'm 63. And I'm finally learning triads, and double stops. Thanks for giving me a base to start from. And playing the double stops out of the triads? Many guitar players might have known that, but thanks, now, I do too👍
I've been learning my chord progressions with reference off of the E and A strings. You did it over the G and B strings which gave me a whole new perspective, thanks!
Good video. Good timing for me as I’ve just been practicing tonal centers for major and minor across the fretboard in all keys. And I disregarded the other commenters on the A minor thing….it’s like, well don’t hilight the A for chrissakes, but the form works fine, gives some other nuance and flavor to just playing a straight up c major scale thing. Thanks for the video, made me look at inversions a little different than I had before.
“….bar chord shapes?” at 2:00. Is that a question? 😂 Millennial inflection drives me up the wall. Carry on. I’ll be over here looking for anyone attempting to walk across my lawn.
5:48 I was good right up until this point. You play the 1 chord triad, then you say you hint at the 2 and 3 minor chords. Are you just doing double stops of the minor chords as a fill and going back to the 1 chord before heading to the 5 chord? Great video. Love it
@@fretcraft I see it , hear it, but can’t do it…I have the triad shapes down, I have the pentatonic shapes down that corresponds with the triad but for the life of me make anything sound remotely close to the video. I need a slow in depth detail on just the fills……. It moves too fast for me to pick it all up. Maybe it’s just all a little outside my lane. Cheers 🍻
Nice lesson on implementation. Thank you! At the end, it was a bit too fast for me to follow the fills. If you have a pdf of the tab, could you post that here? Again, thank you for the lesson.
I made my biggest jump in theory was when I stopped thinking about chords at all. You say C barre chord but I never think about it like this. I think its as A "shape" barre even if its C major, so this means next shape is G and before that is C shape. Makes life so much easier. So whenever I pick a root I can visalise whole neck with shapes and triads and create runs and arpeggios. For learning its always: pattern, then number system then notes. And when I actually create something then I need to pick a root note, then know number system(intervals) and use patterns for idle play. I wonder how Im thinking after few more years.
Super interesting! I am beginning to agree with you. Until recently I didn't understand that CAGED was a vertical system that spelled out the word along the fretboard. That was definitely a big change for me. Now I am integrating each of those shapes into the respective pentatonic shapes for that hand position and it is really helping me build a full picture of the neck.
What is more blatantly obvious is where and when you actually do it. Depending on what part of the neck you are, the triad sounds a WHOLE LOT BETTER than whatever the chord (guitar) is. The triad has a more striking, instant sound to it that isn't cluttered up by other notes. As per Edward Van Halen: tone is EVERYTHING. The triad gets to the point of the sound and tone quickly. Of course, you can use your actual chord to play and pick whatever notes out of that chord, depending on where, instead of single note playing. I admit, some of these country music players in their fast pace stuff know these triads really well. Triads gets to the musical point quickly. Sure, I can play chords that sound beautiful with an open ring to them, but what's the point? Unless there is a context in which to place them, depending on where, it's just useless.
@fretcraft Sure. You could turn the graphic 90 degrees counter-clockwise so the numbers are upright and more readable. It might fit in the upper right instead. But if you don't want to move it, just at least turn the numbers to make them upright. Also, make the frets end visually at the outer strings so it registers immediately as a guitar neck instead of an unbounded grid. Cheers.
@@achoice2bmadeprobably he does it without even knowing it...and yes I agreed with you.. perhaps is a bad manner...who knows...I still like the lesson
some people like me do it out of natural instincts. i know it probably does nothing and i still do vibrato via frets but there’s nothing wrong swinging the guitar anyways cus we just feel like it
This guy knows his stuff. Highly recommended!
Great and simplified explanation 💯
Awesome! Glad it made sense

These 3 lessons realy realy helped me out understanding much more, youre a hero to give me this missing puzzle pieces i was looking for! 🙏🏽
Awesome!! I'm so glad it was helpful
This was a really well done and thought out video. Thanks for sharing
I appreciate that, Thank You
Agreed
I feel this is something I should be learning if I want to bring my playing to the next leval
A really nice lesson, many thanks 👏
Great lesson .I enjoy it

Nice!! Thank you for the comment, I'm so glad it was helpful.
What a great lesson.
Thank you :)
This is a great video. Concise description of connecting these chords together. Nice work.
Thanks, I'm glad it made sense.

You did it over the G and B strings which gave me a whole new perspective, thanks!
Totally, I learned them off of E and A first too and it blew mind when I started moving around.
I love this lesson. Awesome.
You did a really good job explaining your points. Thank you.
Glad it was helpful!
Light bulb moments for me, Thank you sir!
Great lesson. There is a huge gap in how to apply Triads. Would love to hear more on this.
Good to hear. There will be more coming soon.
I really love that guitar! Ty for the lesson! 😊
Great job, organised, on point, not too long, clean sound, SUB
Much appreciated! Thanks for the comment
Awesome sounding triad progression and good explanation!
Great lesson 👍🏾
Thanks, I'm glad you liked it.

Great lesson. Thanks for taking the time
You're Welcome. Thanks for feedback I appreciate it.
Nice video. BTW, if you tune EADGCF, then triads look the same on all groups of strings. Much easier !
Thanks! Following 🤘
P90 pickups wow love the tone

@@ColdCanadian911 Shoot me an email, maybe we can meet up on zoom one of these days and look at it.
Sir, it was very helpful. Thankyou for this lesson. Please if you can dive further on how to solo chord changes would be really helpful.
Thanks, I'm glad it was helpful, are there any particular aspects of chordal soloing you would like me to cover?
Great video. Will give it a go

That was my favorite one too

Oh boii, ill visit this again later, my brain cells are fried
love my friend
wonderful lesson
You need a looper so we can hear it and show us ! Great vid ❤
haha i am felling like john mayer after that, good lesson
Nice
Explained
What PRS model is that? I never have seen one with P90s.
Thanks for the great lesson
It's a PRS McCarty, I bought it from a luthier years ago and he had put the P-90's in it.
Hey brother which kind of guitar u r using
It's a PRS McCarty
nice thanks
Very nice - killer clean guitar tone too! What amp is that?
It's actually an Amp Modeler, and it's one of the built in ones in Logic with a bit of compression, saturation and a little bit of reverb.

This would make so much more sense to guitarists if they would just learn how to read music instead of only using the dot charts and tabs.
Sounds like a CCR song
I thought the same thing. Lodi is what it sounds like to me.
Best example
Brown eyed girl
I didn’t know Ryan Gosling could play guitar!
We didn't know you got your eye glasses from your local tire shop either
@@randomlyrancannabis7020🤣
🥰
The chord graphics are disorienting.
People keep saying things like this, I don't understand why. Could you explain to me how I could be doing it better?
@fretcraft Sure. You could turn the graphic 90 degrees counter-clockwise so the numbers are upright and more readable. It might fit in the upper right instead. But if you don't want to move it, just at least turn the numbers to make them upright. Also, make the frets end visually at the outer strings so it registers immediately as a guitar neck instead of an unbounded grid. Cheers.
@@dieterheinrich8377 Thanks for the reply, I'll search around and see if I can find a better chart generator. If you know of a good one let me know.
@@dieterheinrich8377 Thank you very much for the feedback, I'll try to find a better program for making them.
what
Why do you move the guitar up and down as musically it adds no vibrato, its been proven by professional guitarist.
Please post a video of yourself doing it correctly.
@@achoice2bmadeprobably he does it without even knowing it...and yes I agreed with you.. perhaps is a bad manner...who knows...I still like the lesson

OMG
Just want to know, do you play ?
IF yes you have already Done that and you still will
Good info but why do you show the chord charts sideways? That makes it more difficult to see thr chord.
Makes it readable for left hand players maybe?
