The more I live the more I come to realisation that triads are everything on guitar. A deep understanding is a must.

[@elizabethanderson2968]

Prince's rhythm guitar playing was exactly as you described in the video. My son started out playing just riffs and rhythm comping, and he can attest to the fact that he became more competent, far more expediently, as a result, as well as having a better understanding of dynamics within a group.

[@otter5555]

"sultans of swing" is a complete course on comping. ignore the solos......by the time you learn the rhythm you know a great deal about comping. add a few inversions and sus notes and you are there :)

[@Dermot-ts5xx]

Great advice pal

[@Dermot-ts5xx]

I of packed it in if it took 23 years to cop that but fair dues

[@mrmatthew2443]

Yes .. nice Inversions as we jazzers call them When using the same strings that is Once we start using different strings they’re still inversions but not what we usually call 1st inversion 2nd inversion , 3rd inversion like the ones your showing us in the beginning this very important lesson Thanks

[@santiagogiuntoli6726]

The honesty and "down-to-earthiness" of some statements got me into subscribing. Keep that, brother!

[@owenbruce4120]

Learning open tunings highlights these partials from the outset...highly recommend it to all 🎶

[@55judylw]

I'm 68, trying to improve my playing, make it more interesting, and this video is burning my brain! But, you do a great job explaining things. Now I just have to put in the hard work of learning. Thank you!

[@LucidLiquidity]

Definitely improved my rhythm playing a lot learning this years ago, and vital to feeling comfy moving up and down the fretboard. It's like the harmonic glue of whatever chord progression you're playing. This + memorizing note names and knowing how all the different chords relate (common tones, what triads make up 7th chords, etc) will enable you to become a comping wizard and really get creative harmonically. 90% of my songwriting is just experimenting with pivoting chords off common and leading tones lol.

[@marcd1981]

Thank you, Eddie. I'm coming back to the guitar after more than 25 years, and when I started, I was getting tips from a friend who showed me power chords. I tried learning lead on my own, and never really got into actually playing rhythm like you show here.

[@danielabilez3619]

For me in hindisight. Learn to identify the note by sound not sight. Then stringing the instrument (floyd). Then tuning... hear the note. Barre chords up and down the real estate. Rhythm in a four on the floor back beat than swing time. Then learn your gear.

[@eric_charles]

One of the best lessons on actually putting triads to use. Thanks!

[@GuitarMasteryMethod]

Glad you think so!

[@Edhildil]

Excellent lesson! So many harmonies in such a simple small space, and outside of the proverbial box! Dig it!

[@lazvt8469]

learning that now....coincidently. I"m 61 (playing off/on since 9). Jack Ruch is a master at this... Exciting topic....related to CAGE...

[@robertkidd6270]

I started about 8am with break for lunch😂 seriously tho,that's great your still playing and learning as it definitely keeps the cogs turning lol...I've been at it since 84 self taught lefty playing righty. Hi from Scotland

[@lazvt8469]

@@robertkidd6270 I'm a sad lefty-lefty starting to really enjoy the instrument thanks to KZbin. Gotta now start protecting my digits from too much use as I could be getting early signs of arthritis.

[@OnwardAndEdward]

Right on! I love Jack’s playing. Nice guy too!

[@stevekulacz7824]

I'm actually a drummer but after 40 plus years of leaving it up to the guitar player to write a hit song i gave up and started to learn how to play guitar as well and when it comes to KZbin teachers your a rockstar

I'm learning guitar 🎸 at 44. :) I use to play trumpet in high school. lol

[@Ian_KH]

A great lesson. Thanks. I've been a bass player for 40+ years but I play rhythm too and, at the moment I'm trying to improve my rhythm playing and increase my knowledge of inversions.

[@garydsketch]

This is so helpful! I always get told "learn triads" and I sat and drilled them, but I never really understood what I was supposed to *do* with it until now. Thank you!

[@GuitarMasteryMethod]

Glad it was helpful!

[@simonManleeeee]

Yeah me too

[@spudthompson1434]

Bro this has got to be the best explanation for triads ever! :D

[@GuitarMasteryMethod]

Glad it was helpful!

[@Douglas_I]

Ok.... that was a really good lesson and something, that in 20 years of playing, I did not know anything about until now! Thank you!

[@EternallyThankful-os6pz]

Once again - a great exercise to expand our playing and not ONE SINGLE boring theory or scale lesson - thanks much !!

[@GuitarMasteryMethod]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@brushstroke3733]

Theory lets you figure all this out on your own. It's really not so boring once someone explains it in a way that connects with you. Theory and scales are basically just showing you which steps on a ladder go together.

[@patrickbarr6398]

Gmm is the best...n Eddie is one of their greatest...they have the best player/teachers of anything out there

[@GuitarMasteryMethod]

Thanks!

[@t309st]

Right on Eddie, one of your very finest lessons yet! I was missing the 2nd/3rd/4th string version of the C shape... thanks!

[@Ningishzidd4]

Check out "Never be clever - Herman Brood".. the opening riff is basically all of these triads played over a droning A string.

[@jtgilman]

Great lesson…Ty, Eddie and GMM…anyone who has not taken Eddie’s rhythm and lead course is loco!

[@FrankCosbyNo-Relation]

Most people haven't 🙄

[@BurpeesOnTheBeach]

Where can the lesson be found?

[@roybatty6328]

OK, It took me 30 years but the best lesson I have had since then. Much thanks

[@whatmusiciwant]

I have been doing this my whole life by using the pentatonic scales and never even realized this, this is cool man!

[@peterreeves6825]

Great lesson and demonstration Eddie. It's easy to base all the shapes off a first finger barre and slide them up and down the fretboard. The great Billy Gibbons frequently switches between the A and D triad shapes (or the same shapes in different keys) whilst maintaining the same root (Fool for your Stockings springs to mind)

[@haraldgreiner6969]

Mind blown! Thanks for blasting that "secret".

[@carlbaumeister3439]

Great vid. It’s like playing “lead rhythm,” if that’s what you want. Certainly adds dimension!

[@carlbaumeister3439]

@Really_is_all_about_the_Bass I’m not even familiar with DeMartini, but I’ll check him out. Thanks for the tip!

[@davidmckenzie420]

Boy, your first example immediately brought to mind the A-D-E progression in the Allman Brothers "Revival (Love is Everywhere)." Great lesson. Thanks.

[@markallen8423]

Awesome lesson Cheers Eddie (Legend)😊😎🎸☮️✨✨✨🎸👍

[@dansteinbok7955]

For my ears, I prefer I IV bVII, which implies a more Mixolydian vibe to match the blues coming. Triads over an A drone would be Amazing, Dmajor and Gmajor

[@TheBoboMaker]

I had been experimenting with these concepts. It's great to know I'm heading in the right direction.

[@bwrick797]

Great video Eddie! I was exactly like you and waited over 20 years before someone showed me triads. I was noodling around with my triads one day and realized ahhh That's Van Halen. Then ahh That's Crazy Train. But what you just said, 1,4,5 triads over the 1 chord just opened a new door. THANK YOU! A couple other tips for people who didn't figure it out yet. Arpeggiate those notess going up on that first A triad then down on that first D and any combination of the 1,4,5. Then move that to the 1,2,3 strings same thing up 1,2,3 then down 2,3,4 strings. Will keep you noodling for hours with some really cool musical stuff.

HI Eddie... I started as a student rhythm player by choice... I learnt much of what you teach here.. And it's great to see you portray this lesson😊 skillfully! Thanks

[@XLR8NXS32]

Thanks Eddie! Amazing how you can improvise with triads and double stops to accompany the Rhythm! Nice!

[@Ilurk247]

Good lesson, apply the caged method of thinking to this and it makes more sense

[@buckleyiarumejr2281]

Absolutely love the chord combo

[@crmckenzie]

Love this. Would love to see a minor triad version.

[@Sascha_Franck]

Do it yourself. Replace all major thirds with the minor ones. C# becomes C, F# becomes F and G# becomes G.

[@hartleysloan8191]

Thanks for posting this! As an intermediate guitar player this is very helpful! I subscribed to your channel because of this video!

A lot of information in this video...I can definitely see how this would help your rhythm playing...take some time and learn all the chord variations

[@kimbercovers]

Thanks for the video, i would agree rhythm is the biggest stubbling block for most people including myself!

[@deanmccaskill5495]

That third position A triad with an added A string is my favourite chord.I use it way too much but if your guitar is intonated and in tune it’s very sweet sounding

Try putting on thinner strings till your poor fingers get calloused and have more strenth. 9's or 8's. It helps.
