This is why I watch SD videos. He doesn't hit you over the head with theory (in this case triad shapes). Unlike most triad videos the instructor jams multiple (up to 12!) shapes down your throat to memorize. I wish everyone could see my wall of triad shapes I've written/printed out. I'm constantly looking for a triad pattern to memorize without much luck. As shown in this video, why do you need to know triads on all 6 strings? Anything on the E & A strings you'll probably barre anyway. If you have a chord chart and maybe a circle of fifths diagram this lesson will "click" instantaneously. Here SD shows how to use 2 shapes, the easiest part of a (minor) pentatonic scale, and it makes you sound like you've been playing for eons. This is the stuff you want to play/noodle with if somebody handed you a guitar and said, "Play something Yngwie". Unless you think playing a bunch of triads shapes would impress anybody, start slow and then move on. Thanks again SD.

Great lesson! Usually my chords are barred when moving past the third fret so lessons like these are great reminders that those open looking closed shapes we know can still be utilized farther down the fretboard 👍

I always love these beginner(well back to basics for me) videos. A lot of times after years of playing & trying to make everything sound so "original" you forget the whole reason you started. Just to play & enjoy what we are doing... These video kinda bring everything back into perspective. Hope all is well, take it easy.

OK finally Sean Daniel ties the G A and D triads by sliding G into A THEN playing a random lick on the D pentatonic--7-9 etc Wonderful lesson --this was a brilliant triad idea on combining triads with pentatonic soloing ---thankyou Sean !--I finally learnt something very valuable --will attempt to apply this method --to other triads and pentatonic !

This is loads more helpful than the last triad lesson I watched. All lessons are not created equal. Definitely bookmarking this one.

Great practice lick for sure. I learned a cool theory triad from a Pat Martino tutorial. Start with the augmented triad. Flat the sharp 5 and you have the Major, raise the sharp 5 and you have the relative minor. Since each note in the augmented triad can be the #5, you have 9 triads altogether just by raising or lowering the #5! Raise the shape 1 fret and repeat, etc., for all keys! Thanks for posting 😎

Thanks Sean, great lesson. This was an "eye opener" for me. It actually sounds like I know what I'm doing when I play this. I can fool my friends. Cheers.

Sean you suddenly explode the mystery of the fret board Fantastic One lesson and all the jargons gone Kapow die Thank you 😊

Loved this video. You are unraveling the mysteries of watching my friend’s play while I play the basic cowboy chords. The veil is lifting!!!!

Hey Sean, greetings from Australia. I love your channel. I’ve been watching your videos for a few months and it has just dawned on me that I have accidentally learned a lot of music theory from you.

excellent lessons on triads. Like you I always was told triads are the key! You showed me how to get started using them. Great lessons.

OMG mate...I just started to play guitar and I just found your videos yesterday. Those things that I've learned will be lifelong, thanks...I really appreciate your content. Love from Australia...

Thanks for the lesson! Learning ideas that sound good, it's better than learning ideas that don't sound good...aka scales. We like melody! : ) Thanks again, Michael of the Darby family.

I think I love you, but what am I so afraid of?!!! Partridge Family humor never gets old! Seriously awesome lesson Sean, just the type of help I was searching for at this stage of my guitar journey. Thanks.

Wake up moment for me thanks so much

So musical, yet so educational. A master at work.

Well said and very clarifying. Unlike trying to play guitar while drinking hazy IPA. Thank you Sean and Cort.

Enjoyed the class last night! Thanks!

On the same string set, DGB, there is another good triad I like to combine with the two you show. It is built from the 1st position C chord shape in closed voicing using only those 3 strings. The three of them can be combined in various ways to open up a lot of the neck.

Thank, this really opens up the fret board for me, big love, from the hairmandoo

Yup , just in time 👍

I've totally embraced the triad revolution!!! Sweet, thanks sir Sean

very helpful thanks so much appreciate your no- nonsense approach here

These video lessons are so helpful! Thank you!

Great lesson, Sean. Thanks.

Thanks Sean Daniel regards Sean Daniel

Thx for showing how to take some stress of my hands. I a little on the old side and I can use all tricks I can get to keep playing

Good stuff, Sean. I, too have ignored triads and music theory for a very long time. Thinking of theory as "jazz oriented" and not relevant to my playing. Appreciate the review and humor. As an electrician, you might want to get any funny smelling appliances checked out. No need to get electrocuted or burn your place down 😉

420k subscribers, I'll light one for you ❤️

Great lesson. I actually learn something about triads that I can use.

Nice lesson, Sean. It'll make a change to move away from those top 3 frets when I pick up my acoustic (which I don't do nearly often enough) ! 😆

Thank you so much.

I'm following your lessons on Patreon, keep up thr good work!

Good info, thanks Sean......

Great video, and thanks for doing the zoom class, I didn’t get everything at the time but a lot of it is clicking as I work on it more!

Nice lesson, subbed

Exactly the lesson I needed! thanks.

Really helpful. Well taught.

Awesome 👏🏽

oooo your a Bad Man, man! nice lesson, on my third watch thru.

Gold

Good stuff Sean.

Yes..good way to arrive on 7th fret

This is helpful, thank you

Great lesson!

very helpful................ace lesson!

Connections - shapes to actual musicality- just what the doc ordered- my wife called me rockstar-ish - whhaaaat?

Good stuff, Man!

Thanx mr smokin juicer dude 🎸🎶🤣

Your style and delivery makes sense to me... Scary....lol

Man you’re so cool,

At least the thing is all healed it was like looking at a Lobster Claw made me laugh a little bit you're a great teacher

This video is a year old and I can't help but wonder if he ever got a new Vitamix.

hey man, the guitar sounds a little squeakier in this one. just out of curiosity, does it take you a while to adjust to each guitar? i know you’re always picking up new guitars, never thought about how someone at your skill level adjusts to new guitars, any thoughts around that?

I grew up on 80s action movies, i've always been scared of the triads.

Great lesson as usual. Why is it D major pentatonic? I know it’s the same but just curious

Feel around for the right positions of those two chord shapes, and you'll be playing a reasonable version of The Cut Out Witch pretty soon. (Try L-adder, A-shape, looping: L5 A10 A7 A4 L3 L5). Not you, Sean. You can probably even play the riff in the song already. :D For a recent example of what the song can sound like, here: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/sM98hJqX3JmUk6c.html Just a reasonably snazzy example of how one can go quite far with those chord shapes. The song itself is quite happy to become whatever else you make of it. I think even the band plays it a few different ways.

Do you have any similar exercise for the minor triads?

Once you've smelled burning electronics you'll never forget it

Nice lesson Sean, but why talk about (B) minor pentatonic licks when in the context of this they are D major pentatonic licks?

Triads so hot right now

I would be nervous taking a sponsorship for a crappy product

oh man,keep talking. i think its working

By learning Chinese?

I was ready to rip that guitar apart . Then ya said it was a cort .and i was like o thats why it sounds like shit.. like your channel though.

Yah throw all the jargon in and make this even more confusing... and don't bother making it simple..... U know what.....you have finally inspired me to quit guitar once and for all.........I am done!!!!.... I am doing be with these useless guitar "instructions" from geniuses like you........ I will like your vid a s a parting gift interval-boy!!!!!....
