Triads on the Fretboard: Build and Play any Triad

🎸 So you learned what a triad is… now what?In this follow-up to our triad breakdown, we take things to the fretboard. This video walks you through how to build triads directly from the scale—and more importantly, how to actually play them on your guitar.

You’ll get hands-on with major, minor, and diminished triads, learn how they’re pulled from the scale, and see them come to life across the fretboard. We’ll even sneak in a quick peek at voicings and inversions—just enough to make you dangerous (but not overwhelmed).

🔹 Topics Covered:
- Building triads from any major or minor scale

- Visualizing triads on the fretboard

- Major, minor, and diminished triads

- Intro to voicings & inversions (barely, but it counts)

If you're tired of playing chords by shape and want to understand how they actually work—this one’s for you.
