Use these easy triads to play a 1-4-5 chord progression in ANY key. CAGED Guitar Lesson EP446

[@BDKabrini]

NOW THIS is a helluva Lesson. Looks like something NICE to play with.

[@Never2Loud]

You are a fantastic instructor. Your videos are very-well done and a great help to beginners and long-time players as well.

[@Paul-fp1gr]

Someone finally putting this into a format that is easy to understand & expand on . Thanks again.

[@trevorkanyowa261]

Perfect New Year's gift for me! Am a later starter, middle aged and now above all HAPPY!

[@demonrouge3338]

I posted yesterday but I’m back because after playing for a few hours after watching your video last night I was overwhelmed. It finally made sense to me. I can’t believe nobody told me this before all those years I spent noodling around hoping I’d find some pattern or secret. Once I understood the triads I applied them all over the neck and now I can play anywhere in any key anytime no matter what chords are going on I know where to go. Let me tell you that knowing where to go from your lesson is the greatest thing I ever learned on guitar. Triads. Once you learn them you will get it. Watch this video 10 times if you have to once it makes sense you’re going to kick yourself in the butt and want back all those years you spent trying to figure things out.

[@CommanderMarsh]

Brian, I’ve had a lot “a-ha” moments watching your videos, but this was a big one. I’ve seen guys seemingly okay I-IV-V without hardly moving their left hand, but I never could crack it. Thanks as always! That guitar is a gem as well!

[@staceyslocum8531]

Awesome thank so much! I'm 48 and trying to learn more than I did when I was 14.

[@activemelody]

Same 😊

[@dangquesadilla]

Me too!!! Well 49 here. But I still feel like I'm 48

[@activemelody]

@@dangquesadilla yep. We’re staring 50 right in the eye

[@dangquesadilla]

The lessons are incredible. I will be subscribing to active melody this year

[@wayfairstranger6227]

52 and starting to play alot better too! Thank you! P.S. You can teach an "Old Dog new tricks lol ..

[@nyzombiesquad182]

awesome awesome....now i need to spend time figuring out the scales below the chords, and start going on some journeys : )

[@eeriepubs2091]

Learning songs using triads is the best way to learn guitar. Thanks.

[@djcuriosity6670]

I never had so many good instructors !

[@taboosermons]

Good to see the Chord Diagrams displayed... helps a lot!

[@nps2512]

I’ve struggled with triads for yrs Great help

[@gzackerman]

Great lesson, Brian!

[@davulcu64st]

Great lesson explaining triads

[@tylerhart3549]

Excellent video! I love the way you teach. One of the best guitar teachers on KZbin.

[@robynchilson9849]

This helped me learn how Chris Stapleton plays Blue Side of the Mountain! Thanks for another great lesson.

[@bradleyvigus9533]

Great lesson thanks. Playing this on my holidays.

[@keithsmith7614]

Beautiful! Life changing information. Thank you ❤❤❤❤❤

[@desertfox3860]

Thanks Brian. The chord graphics really helped me!

[@jpbaztan]

Every single idea you explain, got some other sidebars you point... you make me think... Little lightbulbs all the time. All related in context on the practical example we are in, so it's easily understood. Came here for the Triads, and now I can see the basic CAGED idea, so I can try to continue by myself. Brilliant on you. I appreciate you offer naked raw sound over basic classic stuff. No ultra Gain and crazy solos to impress us. Congratulations and thank you very much 'caballero'.

[@stephenbouchelle7706]

Figuring out triads on this string set (2.3.4) opened up a lot of possibilities for me. I can play in any key in a jam, and they are great for uke or a tenor guitar tuned in DGBE. Your lessons have been a great help to me.

[@jstringer213]

played guitar most of my life ....wow where was this 40 yrs ago!!! very basic yet absolutely spot on...esp. "caged" application(s)!! Thanks Man!!

[@craigewinger7663]

Thanks for showing how to make a E7 chord with finger barred at 9th fret. Otherwise I was very confused at some of the shapes. Craig Ewinger

[@jack002tuber]

Great stuff. The CAGED system is so good, lots of things to use it for. The idea of a I IV V progression is gold. It's in everything. Gospel, blues, so many things. Learn these chords in every key, you won't be sorry

[@ToTheRegiment]

Great lesson to bring in the New Year , wishing all you pickers a blessed 2022

[@justchico75]

I've been looking all over KZbin for a lesson on connecting scale shapes to CAGED shapes. And I can think of no better teacher. So, Brian, if you find yourself looking for a lesson idea.... But, yeah this one is great! I've been playing around with this but having the 4 and 5 spelled out like this is SO helpful! Thanks and God bless!

[@caseylee12]

That's why I love P90s so much, the perfect balance between a single coil and a humbucker! Sweet tone with a touch of growl.

[@deemitchell4603]

Oh man there's so much to get out of this one! I *think* that I might be able to get the notes of various triads into my head from maybe just noodling these up and down the neck while calling out the notes from the basic form out loud..... Yea hell I'd probably get the notes from the 3rd string in my head on top of that. Damn who said there isn't any short cuts to get intimate with, what for me is Deep, theory detail applicable to tons of additional goodness. Thank you.....

[@bobmurphy3061]

Self taught, been playing 50 years, and finally a light bulb went off! Thanks. Maybe now I can finally make progress.

[@goodboyringo9716]

Love the way you teach and play . Very easy to follow your teaching .

[@sallymac1510]

The chord diagrams were so helpful to picture the six chords to use and all contained in the one zip code. One area yet so much info mileage that came with it. You are a gift that keeps giving.

[@ambroseharper8316]

That there folks, is gold 👌

[@billfehr256]

Another great lesson 👍

[@shinyjohn6568]

I LOVED!! that little lesson..more please

[@zakdhabalia8280]

What a bloody brilliant lesson. Have learnt so much from your lessons on unlocking keyboard.

[@GuitarJoLa]

Triads and "zip codes" on the fretboard were a great eye-openers for me. No one else explains it better than you, Brian! Great lesson, as always :)

[@moGear6253]

this is exzactly what iv been trying to get to GOD LIGHT BULB this is game changer got to gets some lesson's going thank you so much just bright-in up my weekend . had a terable week till now thank you

[@poenievienings4838]

I think you are a fantastic teacher ! Love it

[@JiriPrajzner]

the power of triads and inversions, nice :)

[@zerolatitude2923]

Thanks Brian, I signed up a couple months ago. I have learned more in two months than the last 40 years. On your Theory class now.

[@Pulse2AM]

I like your lessons, they take me out of my comfort zone which is more power chord rock. Keep up the good work and thanks!

[@dr123hall]

A lot of really valuable (made very easy to follow - and actually learn) instruction, for Anybody at any level! Thank you very much for taking time to create this little jewel!!

[@eddiekent1997]

Thank you Great lesson!

[@blairmirrlees108]

Great lesson. I've done this for years but until now I really never totally understood what I was doing. The first lick is what I used for Son Of A Preacher Man.

[@solomonwaigani4512]

Excellent lesson, Sir! Thank you and happy new year!

[@waynemorrison5792]

Very helpful, thanks!

[@paulbailey1341]

Great lesson Brian. Happy New Year.

[@gregoryroyce8773]

Thank you good sir for not only teaching amazing lessons but for teaching a person to become an actual guitar player....I truly enjoy learning new things from you and you for sure have a great way of explaining!

[@Rayram555]

Very enlightening video. It made me think even more.

[@1974xaviers]

Thanks Brian .....Wishing you and your family a Happy New Year....God bless you and your family...you are doing a great job teaching people like us all over the world. You tips and tricks and your lessons go unsurpassed...in my opinion you are the best teacher on U Tube...no one to beat you. What all I have learnt is from your U Tube lessons ..... Your well crafted lessons are just amazing..easy to understand..and play. Thank you once again.....🙏😊

[@mnegline1971]

another fantastic lesson - unlocked some very basic things I kind of knew but never linked up. thanks!

[@stringman509]

Hi Brian now I have learnt a bit about triads really learning a lot from this lesson light bulb is on as a member of active melody I will have to log on thanks Colin 🇬🇧

[@lightfoot413]

you are very creative and the triads give us sort of a break from playing the whole chords all the time and like you we can create some neat little licks off of them...thanks for keeping things simple...good teaching...

[@Capt-Cran]

Just incredible lessons in every way ... you are an asset to every guitarist learning their instrument ... your ability to communicate and make it easy to understand is "top-shelf" ... thank you very much!!

[@drewdietz2115]

love these triad lessons, helped me very much. Happy New year Brian.

[@nagarajsingh5362]

Oh! Very interesting and cool ! The seemingly simple chord formation gives lot of confidence to beginners! Thank you for a good lesson !

[@RobHawesMusicChannel]

Beautiful lesson.

[@dalechordis658]

This is so useful :)

[@anthonycascio7121]

Brian, that was so awesome. I wished I learned that 40 years ago. Such a simple approach to the 1,4,5 plus some neighboring chords and can be applied to any key. Awesome! Thank you!

[@stephenbouchelle7706]

Thanks. This lesson broadens what I have been working on. I discovered and have been playing with 3 triad forms on the DGB strings for a while now. I find it very useful on the tenor guitar I sometimes play. Now at a jam session (acoustic blues) I can play basics in any key they call the song. It has turned out to be very easy to finger pick and to add 7th & 6th embellishments in this small string set, too. I do hope you do more lessons on this string set.

[@georgem5589]

Sweet 14:05 takes explains how take to next level.

[@paulphoad]

Tremendous. I'm from Australia, and play pubs with just chords. If I play solo I usually can't put much in for the fills. However, Brian has so many ideas. Working off the "front edge" of the A bar..... and the notes around the D triad. Ill try and spice up my chord fills with some of this stuff. Hard without a bass or other guitarist but this here is good stuff. Thanks Brian

[@johnryan527]

What kind of songs do you play ,? And I said that with an aussie accent, ,love that out bak

[@compassrosebushcraft6702]

Hey Brian, hit the nail on the head for me here! Thanks! I am learning so much I don’t always have the practice time to try it out, but just listening, when I can’t practice, builds my knowledge base, thank you.

[@SeekerGoOn2013]

Brian, there are several ways to approach guitar playing and teaching guitar. The way you explain and demonstrate works well for me. Maybe it’s the level I’m at (CAGED understanding is huge), and maybe it’s the way I think. I just enjoy the way you can make it fit. 👍

[@kirkhilts3996]

Great lesson! That B7, is the chord used in intro , " paper in fire".- mellencamp

[@douglaschristine8387]

Very nice Brian and sounds great. Happy New year 🎇

[@stephenbouchelle7706]

I understand a reason you chose this V (5) chord is partly to keep everything on that 9h fret position (also other cool stuff). Folks might like to know another easy 5 chord from this E is D string 9th fret, G - 8th fret, B - 7th fret. That shape has a lot of possibilities too.

[@redpillpusher]

Love the Blues.

[@Hhenriette]

great lesson. thanks

[@johnleenane4571]

Excellent lesson

[@budaire1]

So many talk about triads and I was none the wiser until I saw your video, you make sound so easy and straight forward. Now I’m gonna try it see how I get on.

[@graemethorne4540]

Brilliant Brian thanks for sharing.

[@buddhamus]

Nice lesson. I love to learn stuff that's easy to absorb and that I can use right away. Thank you and Happy New Year.

[@goingblindmusic]

I would also suggest EP356 which kinda does this in 3 different positions on the neck in the Key of G. There’s so much quality in these lessons I find it really enjoyable to go back to ones I “learnt” years ago - and this time do it properly ( or at least better than I could back then!). EP356 here I come again. 😀

Happy New Year everyone! Yet another great lesson Brian. The chord diagrams are a great addition and will be helpful. Relating the shapes to the caged system is important as well. Keep up the good work.

[@tommaguzzi1723]

Happy new year.

[@ruudgeldermans]

Very efficient lesson. I have just sent it to some of my electric guitar students.. thanks !

[@LulamileGamthini]

Good lessons brother

[@demonrouge3338]

Wonderful lesson. I am a long time guitar player and like you mentioned in your video I only know the names of the strings on the top two strings are they open strings and all of the octaves once you put it together like that I got it and I’m glad I stuck with it through to the end. Excellent lesson.
