TRIADS are basic three note chords using the 1, 3, 5 intervals. say you're in the key of c major: c is 1 (root) d is 2 e is 3 f is 4 g is 5 a is 6 b is 7. all the possible chords in the key of c major (or any other key) MUST USE THE NOTES FROM THAT SCALE. each basic chord (triad) of any given note from that scale starts with its note as the root note: 1 - C major- C, E, G = 1 3 5. 2 - D minor- D, F, A = 1 3 5. 3 - E minor, E, G, B = 1 3 5 4 - F major- F, A, C = 1 3 5 5 - G major, G, B, D = 1 3 5 6 - A minor- A, C, E = 1 3 5 7 - B diminished- B, D, F = 1 3 5 that's your c major scale harmonized! In the case of D minor the 1, 3, 5 is D F A, because you're starting from the D note. D is 1, F is 3, A is 5. The D minor triad MUST BE A MINOR CHORD BECAUSE IF IT WAS MAJOR, IT WOULD HAVE F# AS THE THIRD, WHICH IS NOT A NOTE IN THE C MAJOR SCALE! INVERSIONS a triad inversion means not playing the root note of that chord as the bass note - THAT'S IT. for triads, there's only two possible inversions, because you MUST use only notes from that chord! basic C major triad - C E G = 1 3 5 first C major triad inversion - E G C = 3 5 1 second C major triad inversion - G C E = 5 1 3 so you can play the c major triad chord altogether in three possible ways - with the c as the bass note, the e as the bass note, and the g as the bass note. do you see the pattern? inversions are used for a smoother transition between chords so that they don't sound so boxy when you're going from one into the other!

Dude, that was actually very helpful and a great supplement to the video. Tx, man!

A triad is the root the 3rd & the 5th. The difference between major & minor is just the 3rd. There's three options to achieve the same triad, it's still just the root, the 3rd and the 5th their just inverted, got it! This topic on triads is explained very well. Thanks!!

Michael, I know you probably hear this a lot but you just gave me a light bulb moment. I am a pretty much KZfaq trained intermediate guitar student and just now discovering the world of triads. Your explanation was the clearest most concise that I have heard and it made immediate sense. Off to the woodshed now to explore triads on the 4,3,2 strings!

Triads and then arpeggios and then playing arpeggios over chord changes is one of the simplest to understand concepts but playing it well is something that people spend years mastering - learning the 7th chords and their extensions is the next step that gives your playing a mature and articulate sound - great lesson!

Honestly. I have been playing guitar for 30 years and I have no idea what any of that means.... the 5th, the 3rd etc. I know kinda what a root note is. At least in a scale, but I wish I could understand all of it. It seems like a foreign language to me, and it seems so daunting and out of my league. But I can play the hell outta my guitar. I just have no understanding of the technical.

@MTEMedia Жыл бұрын

I felt that way for a long time too. Here's how it works. Each scale has 8 notes. You just simply give each note in the scale a number starting from 1. Then you go to the next note up the scale (never down) and assign the next number in the series, 2 for instance. Then 3 and so on. For instance, in the key of A major, the note "A" is the root, or 1st note in the scale. The second note would be "B" so that's the "second". Third note in the scale would be "C#" (C sharp). The fourth is D. Fifth is E. Sixth is F#. 7th is G#. And then back to the 1, or alternatively, the 8th note which is A again. Here's a grid to help visualize: • A = 1 • B = 2 • C# = 3 • D = 4 • E = 5 • F# = 6 • G# = 7 • A = 1 OR 8 if you want to keep counting going up the scale. That means that the next B would be called either the 2 OR the 9th. C# could be 3 OR 10, so forth and so on. Hope that helps!

Those saying that they’ve been playing for decades and know none of this theory… I said that’s fine, but why not get to know the theory? I have a basic understanding of theory, but I’m trying to get to know it more though … If it helps you to become a better musician by knowing the wherefore and the why,and it will… then do it!

I'm a beginner and this sure don't sound like it's explained to a Beginner...can't follow your fingers moving that fast. Need some graphics of some sort. And if I'm a beginner, you assuming I've been playing the "Big box pentonics something or other," that I need to get out of....Hey! I'm a Beginner.. This is the first I've heard of Triads anyways. just frustrated, sorry.

This isn’t correct as the root of a triad of A major whilst being A is not the first note of the triad A major. The first note of the triad is E.

@slowporch 4 ай бұрын

The “root” of A major is always A. Doesn’t matter which note is played in what order. The #’s are based on the order the notes fall in the A major scale. 1A, 2B, 3C#, 4D, 5E, 6F#, 7G# The “root”is just another name for the 1. Or the tonic. A is always the root of A major. When E is the lowest or 1st note played it’s what he means by an“inversion” of the triad. AC#E , EAC#, and C#EA are all still A major triads.
