How to (Easily) Play Triad Chords on Guitar

Bravo 👏 very nicely explained with practical application 👍

Why are you Norm Macdonald? 😂😂

I really appreciate your lessons, thank you

thanks for this clear explanation

Hi Justin. Just starting learning triads. Great lesson here. When I try this, my first finger won’t stay pointing upwards. It tends to go horizontal. If I really try and keep my first finger straight up, it catches the string below. 😅 keep up the fantastic work 👍🎸

Nice I love the way you show its easy to understand, have really struggled to understand triads.
thank you

Thank you for the great lesson and I’m sure you get this a lot, but you remind me of a British Norm McDonald and I’m sorry but he was the best so I hope you don’t take it the wrong way

Would help to see the whole neck so know what fret your on,

Hi Justin
You are simply the best teacher!!! I learned so much from your videos.

I would like to buy a good guitar now that I can play better than I ever did b4.

Can you please recommend me a good acoustic guitar please. I have no idea what to buy but I would appreciate your help please.

Many thanks

I've been playing guitar for forty years, and the portion of the video showing playing triads over rhythym guitar finally caused my light bulbs to go off in my brain. The triads over rhythum is the mystical quality my music needed but I had lacked the knowledge to do. I had read about it, but never saw it in practical application until your video. This video is a game changer.

FANTASTIC

Awesome intro to triads. It gave me a starting point to work on. Also has the benefit of learning the fretboard and intervals.

Thanks Justin for showing me a way to fit into a group of people jamming where everyone trying to play the melody-I used simple triads that you showed me on your videos with syncopated rhythms to create my own space.

Wow. I have just learnt how to use a looper what a great way of jamming!

old video yes But after 30 years of chords and vocals ive learnt something so cool in 12 and a half minutes,,,Im smiling like a kid with a new toy,,,cheers mate

thanks bra you made it simple

Three and five what? Strings? There's no explanation or context.

😂hat loop pedal do you use?

Fun! I hope I can get it.

If Cillian Murphy hit the gym and frets

I bought a guitar 4 weeks ago. Love the encouraging videos. I’m in the process of playing without pain. It’s coming. Then I will sign up for your online course. Thank you for helping me make a start!

Thanks so much Justin !! I'm 66 and living here in So. Cal. and just picked up on your Maj/Minor triad switch...so easy to understand your approach. Thank you brother :-)

WOW - mind blow.

How do u find the 3rd and 5th what are the reference

Nice!

Thank you Justin .
Came across a chart from Etsy for Major, Minor, Diminished and Augmented Triads. Should be super helpful.

Sweet!

Norm McDonald?

It’s amazing how some relatively experienced guitar players aren’t aware of this. When I am teaching I try to get this technique in at around the same time I’m getting them into barre chords. Apart from anything else the look on the faces when I show them this simple thing is priceless. Like I said, even reasonably experienced guitarists who,come for a refresher sometimes think I am a magician. The next week they are playing them as if they’d been playing them all their lives. Job satisfaction for me and a new lease of life for them. Everyone wins. ✌️ keep up the good work.

Awesome, as always. Complex everywhere else, acessible here. Thank you.

❤

Thanks, Justin. GBU!

Justin, thank you very much for this!

Haven't touched a guitar for several years and just picking it back up again to find Justin still here, still teaching. Kudos to you Justin

Thanks!

thank u!!!

Thanks a bunch Justin, it is like a mini chord tones really... I will work on it

When you have to apologize and explain for using the term Guy's, it say's a lot about the World we now live in. No wonder people are being killed needlessly in Proxy wars . Nice Video Justin

Thank you Justin. Awesome video ❤

Always doing a great job! Thank you!
