I’ve learned more from you in the last month (when I found your channel) than I have doing things on my own for the last 30 years.
So great to hear that. Thank you!
Same here. And I don’t get along with most teachers. That can’t hang with me naturally.
I’m sure you might get that also. They just don’t like when someone has more nuance. But He has a whole different philosophy that’s all inclusive.
A real gift to musicians worldwide.
Me too. Triads plus the wisdom wisdom felt like enlightenment. Completely changed my approach and attitude. I laughed when Tomo said, do everything. The do-me-so triads, the note names, the scales in terms of root/flat third/fifth, plus the geometry of the fretboard in terms of intervals (this last thanks to Tomo suggesting I focus on intervals)... not to mention hearing everything, seemed overwhelming. How do you translate one system to another? But don't expect too fast.
After a year, for me it's starting to blend together. I even practice in bed, when I can't sleep. I think I can hear what I'm learned and I'm visualizing the fretboard and it feels like I'm "moving" my fingers.
Tomo mentioned that he reduced his wide interests to focus on the blues. I've been using a book called Blues You Can Use. What I'm discovering is that having "songs" you can play well allows you to try and focus on all of the above while you're practicing. Your fingers can play it while your brain tries to understand what's happening and why it works. Later, without your guitar, you can review it in your head. I've also noticed that it allows you to work on phrasing. I was working on a Delta Blues exercise and having difficulty with the fingering (not given) and the timing. My aha moment came when I realized that the call and response pattern dictated the timing and made the transitions easier.
Finally, the memorization is also interesting. I've listened to blues my whole life. Lots of different kinds. But the exercises aren't songs per se. So while I recognize many of the riffs and the styles, they aren't easy to remember or distinguish from one another. Because they aren't songs. The breakthrough was the phrasing. Beginning with the right phrasing seemed to dictate where the phrase will end. And a finger switch is easier when you realize that the switch begins a sub-phrase in the larger phrase.
So much to learn. But I no longer worry thanks to Tomo.
@@mikem668 Good job!! Thanks for sharing! Hard work is good! I don't expect too fast too!
So calming. Thank you sir for the lesson.
"You become a better person after you understand triads"
Yes! Thank you!
Print it on a shirt lol
Yes
I come for the music knowledge, but stay for the dad humor.
Thank you so much!
Best guitar teacher on the planet - so positive - love this guy
Thank you so much!
wrote all the instructions on a physical poster. not the shapes just the instructions. and put it in the most visible place in my room to make sure that I practice triads every morning.
Thank you sir. what you're doing for free is unreal. again, thank you Mr. Fujita.
Good job! Triads are so good! You're very welcome! Love it!

Thank you so much!
I learned triads today from my teacher for the first time and then I watched this video. Everything became so clear for me after watching your video. Now I can play any inversion of triad in any three strings. Thank you so much ☺☺
Good job! So happy to hear! You're very welcome! Thank you so much!
I Love you, man. I can't find another way to say how much you help people with your teachings, your kindness and generosity. You are GOLD. Thank you to eternity. ♥
You're very welcome! So happy to hear that.
Definitely the most useful and comprehensive lesson on triads I've found on UA-cam! Not to mention you feel like you're hanging out with a good friend as he teaches! Great stuff!!!
Glad it was helpful! Thank you so much!
Wow! I can’t believe my eyes you reply ti all these comments. So committed, so courteous, so professional. You sir are an exceptional human being. 🎉
I love helping people! So much joy in their eyes!
I'm studying triads slowly because of you. Now I'm starting to understand a lot of structures in classical music. The masters used triads a lot, in wonderful ways. Thanks!
Good job! Super slow is the key! Thank you!
Did you watch this video?
ua-cam.com/video/85RmFmRgTiw/v-deo.html
@@TomoFujitaMusic Yes!
Nevermind guitar or music. You just evoke pure joy for me and massive inspiration for life and the practice of presence. That said, after more than 30 years of guitar, I love how much more there is to learn - even and especially regarding the fundamentals. What else is there!!!
Thank you so much! All you need is your pure passion! We can learn more and more!
Music, guitar, people makes my life so rich (INSIDE!)
You're a blessing to UA-cam
Thank you!
Coming back to the instrument after a number of years of not playing and finding these videos to be a blessing. All of the little 'aha' moments both during watching and putting the advice into practice, the 'zen' state of working on playing technique, and feeling it come alive in ways it didn't in the past. Thank you for sharing all of this wisdom!
You're very welcome! Thank you so much!
I’ve been playing for almost 20 years. I can’t stop watching and learning. Thank you Tomo!!
Great to hear! Thank you so much!
Thank you for sharing. I'm adding this to my Practice playlist.
You're welcome! I had to ask all 30 private lesson students at Berklee (Just in case)
Thanks for the lesson 🙏 I love the joy and wisdom in your teaching 😁
Glad you enjoy it! Thank you!
Well done. You’re right- this is needed as the foundation for improvisation
Thanks so much!
Dear Mr Fujita, I am new to your videos and thank you for providing this free. I am not confident some people appreciate the value of this (as a child I travelled each week in the evening after all other things were done to see my guitar teacher, now lessons are available any time for free to everyone). I think you had a great title on triads as I did not expect what you showed us and I was genuinely interested and rewarded when I saw what you were explaining. I have just seen your 'Do this routine every night to get shredded' so shall watch that tomorrow. Again, thank you.
I always find myself smiling when watching and listening to you Tomo. Always a pleasure 🙏
Thanks so much!
Tomo you're such an amazing guy! A big hug from Brazil!
Thanks so much!
Great lesson on so many levels! Thank you.
You're very welcome!
Thank you Sir! Your teaching style is amazing and the humor is perfect!
Thank you so much!

Tomo, I hope you know how incredibly valuable you and your lessons are to us! Thank you ❤
My pleasure! I love making people happy!
This is a lot of fun, fantastic demonstration, the low string c to f triads sound especially beautiful/musical together.
Glad you enjoyed it! Yes! I love 345/456 triads! They are so unique.
I love this important idea. Very excited to add this to my routine. Thank you so much, Tomo! Great teacher. Hope you have a nice day!

You are so kind! Thank you!
Thank you for all the lessons!!! Great teacher!!! I like how you preach about owning and not borrowing the notes.
Thanks for watching! Thank you!
LEGIT been practicing triads from your videos for the past week, kinda nuts you post this. Awesome!
Great to hear that. Good job!
Great lesson, so so so fundamental.
I don't know how many vids of this i watched from you and i learn something different every single time!
You're welcome! Thank you!
Awesome explanation, I always feel relaxed watching your videos, it is like having a calm face to face conversation.
Glad to hear that! That you!
I love Tomo’s whole vibe. Super cool
Thank you so much!
Fantastic video! I’d been looking for a good, systematic approach to learning triads, and this is it! Thank you 🙏
Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you!
Exelent video. Recently I was really getting into practicing triads, perfect timing.
Glad it was helpful!
This is an awesome lesson wich i’ll incorporate in my way of teaching triads! So useful , THANK YOU SO MUCH mr TOMO!
Thank you!
Tomo Fujita is so great and he had a very special personality.Always amazing to see him here.Thank you !
Thank you so much!
Love your Lessons mate 👍 you always give me a smile on my face😁 your energi, humor, and love for music is a great inspiration for us musik theachers out here. Keep up the good work🤟

Thank you so much! So happy to hear that!
I love how you break it down and also make me thing of going vertical.
Thank you so much!
Thank you Mr.Fujita.
I was fixed more chords form.
I try to change,# and 3way.
Good job! Triads are not only can teach you chords but also can teach you good left hand thumb positions and more!
You're not just an incredible guitarist, but also a great person. Thank you for your help through your great lessons. I can't believe this is free. It all just comes down to how much I practice then hey, no excuses!
You're very welcome! Thank you so much!

This is so helpful! I'm a piano player learning to play guitar and your channel is helping me a lot to understand the fretboard. You are a great teacher, thank you very much.
So happy to hear that! Triads are like a piano! Thank you for sharing!
Such a wonderful lesson! Thank you so much Tomo. I find myself really working hard on the triad on the first three strings and just occasionally on the other string sets but I am going to change that now after seeing this lesson.
You're very welcome. Good job! Did you watch this video? This one is just like actual private guitar lesson.

So wholesome ! very rare in music(name drop) biz, i feel so much better after watching you work. Merci.❤
Happy to hear that! Thank you so much!
Mr. Fujita,
Thank you for sharing your time and experience.
Having watched many of your videos and having progressed lately by a focus on C major
scale tones and ear training, this video has given me a goal.
I’m sorry I missed your performance in Nashville weeks ago as I was in town that night and did not know you were.
With much appreciation,
Matt
Thanks for sharing. So great to hear that. Next time!
It is a pleasure to follow your channel and of course your lessons and tips for learning the guitar. You are a very pleasant, calm and outstanding teacher and an excellent musician. I wish you good health and success in your future work. Greetings from Serbia.
Thank you so much!
This is such a good video. i think not just for students but for Teachers too!!!
Thank you so much!
Writing things down, like you've suggested, has helped so much. I just bought a chalkboard for my in-home music room so I can write down the notes and inversions of major triads and it's helping more than anything else I've tried. Thanks, Tomo!
Glad it helped! Thank you!
Triads are so fun to learn, yet so easy to grasp. Really interesting way to get a hold of them!
Glad you like them! Thank you!
@@TomoFujitaMusic My pleasure!
I love your English. I use a S a Geee. You are awesome. I have been plowing through your videos and addicted to your teaching style.
Thank you.
Thank you so much! So happy to hear that!
I’ll be joining your subscription service next month look forward to getting a good foundation of knowledge take care Tomo 🎶
Great plan! Thank you so much!
Always a pleasure.
Thank you so much!
I could hear tons of songs in your lesson. Great teaching
Glad to hear that! Thank you so much!
Thank you so much Tomo. I'm yet another player who has been playing for a long time. I'll confess this is the type of theory-based lesson that I never knew how much I needed. Now I feel like I really am starting to understand the fretboard rather than just a specific lick from a specific song. Thank you!
You're welcome! You can learn them!

I hear you can get arrested for So Do Mi in some states. This is really solid foundational material for guitar. So often guitarists think you have to play a big bar chord when triads in the right range will fit much better. Thanks!
Do Mi So! Thank you~
Great stuff. Thanks Tomo.
Glad you enjoyed it
Thank you Tomo Sensei. I have been watching all your Triad videos, some I watch many times. Your videos are very helpful information but have also helped me to discover things for myself that I didn't expect. Students discovering for themselves is good teaching and I think the best learning. The Sensei provides the tools for the student to learn and discover, not just memorise.
You are very welcome! So happy to hear that.
Perfect timing for this video. I’ve been doing triads for the last couple weeks and it really, REALLY improves understanding of the entire fretboard. Instead of learning one chord over the entire fretboard I found that learning the inversions for all the chords in a key the most helpful (first inversion on the top three strings for G-Am-Bm-C-D-Em-Fdim-G). Once you get it down for one key you know it for everything. Makes it much easier to play the changes during a song. Great video. We should all probably learn triads before cowboy chords…
So great to hear that. Good job!
Tomo, I’d like to also say how good a teacher you are. I have also only discovered you recently and my triad understanding and playing has improved a lot. I enjoy practicing triads! And if I get it slightly wrong I say to myself “Don’t worry, Don’t compare, Don’t expect too fast , Be kind to yourself” . Christmas present this year “Guitar Wisdom subscription”. Thanks keep up the good work. John from England.
You're very welcome! So happy to hear that. Only took over 30 years to really understand how to teach guitar well which means really need to understand each student's needs & know their special individual personalities. You got them! Those are so important my Wisdom Words for my students. Thank you so much from Boston!!
Illuminating Triad lesson
Thanks
Thanks so much!
60 years a student. Learned more here. ❤
Thank you so much! I am a forever student!
Hey Tomo! I really want to compliment u on your teaching strategy. I think it's so important that teachers of any subject matter approach their students on an individual type level. I wish public education understood this concept. I think they would find their jobs much easier. The students as well! thank u for sharing your love of music with us. U are truly a fount of water which flows not only knowledge, but wisdom! Knowledge is only a clanging chime without the wisdom and understanding to use it! 🔔 🎶🎶🎸🎸🎸🎶🎶
Thank you so much for your kind words. It took me for a long time to really understand "Teaching" ... I love helping people. I love make people happy! Teaching is not easy at all! Especially smart people who teaches... Be water my friend! (Bruce Lee) Same way!
This is really great! I need to rededicate myself to my triads.
Thanks so much!
"Memorisation? No, familiarity!"
Great advice, and a good influence especially for beginners, I will remember these words as I practice. Thank you!
No memorization. Be familiar with things with super slow process. That's why I teach things very slow pace. I repeat same things many times with a little twist or a little challenge. Thank you!
Another great video! Thanks! 😎🎸
Glad you enjoyed it!
Wish I had a teatcher like you. This is fun to do, exploring, triads will also aveal if a guitar is good or not.
Thanks so much! Now you can join my Guitar Wisdom
Muchas gracias. Tanta sabiduría no solo para la guitarra.
Thank you!

So happy to hear that.This video will help all my students. Thank you!
Thank you so much Tomo
You are very welcome!
Thank you, Tomo.
You're welcome!
Thank you for sharing your knowledge
You're very welcome! Thank you!
Thanks for making learning guitar more understandable. I played for more than 12 years, before ever even learning triads, although I "knew" all 4th chords and that stuff (mostly just full 5 to 6 string chord shapes).
Now I'm trying to learn the inversions of 4th chords, and triads as well! It seems like a big project to learn all that in 12 keys, and feels kinda rough, but as you said, you don't need to go and learn this in every key right away! I guess it would be wise to learn some basics and start with an easy key and learn to visualise the chords.
I've now been practicing using different degrees of C major with triads and their inversions, and it feels great. Not trying to just memorize what the shapes are, but utilizing them in a musical way makes a lot more sense and puts passion into playing, and at the same time it is hard work like you say :P. Stuff like this is actually useful and you can use it to create something beautiful and learn to see even more on the instrument with new tools. But they need to be practiced first before it coming up in playing.
These videos are good motivation and give perspective for learning, as I am studying a music degree with electric guitar as my instrument. So thanks Tomo!
You're very welcome! Thank you for sharing! Thank you so much! Good job! More lessons are at my Guitar Wisdom.
