For this latest instalment in my “Survival Guide” series, we take a deep dive into triads.. and how best to organise them, practice them and most importantly.. use them!
Major, minor, diminished and augmented.. all applied to a handful of different progressions.
From dark, deep, ambient Americana style triads on the bottom string set, to choppy, soulful Hendrix style riffs over “Hey Joe”.
It’s important to put these things to work right out of the gate if you really want them to stick, and with these exercises and my exhaustive lesson materials you’ll have a life-long resource to revisit time and time again.
So whether you’re looking to improve your ability to play over chord changes, or just need to brush up on your fretboard fluency.. this is the lesson for you.
The materials that accompany this one are truly vast. Not only containing my “Triads Survival Guide” but also every single example and progression neatly typed up in TAB and notation, in guitar pro and PDF formats! I’ve also included my backing track for the “Low Triads Americana style” exercise!
Truly a lifetime’s worth of reference materials for no more than the cost of a coffee!.. check the links in the description to get hold of it all!
