We NEED to talk about triads!

[Eagle]

I’m new around here, so I might be missing something. But, what’s to talk about? Burn in your triads around the circle of fifths, over the entirety of your instrument, and your music theory questions will become answers.

Yes you have it and use caged to quickly find your way around. If you know the notes on the neck and the spellings of the chord you want, you have it anyway.

How about all you guys questioning Sascha's process go start your own theory threads? If you have a better way then great, but don't railroad this thread.

Apart from possibly following what @FuzzyAce suggested, what about me posting an easy backing track and you recording some nice chordal musings over it, maybe even with some explanations of what you did? According to your very own posts, this should be as trivial as it gets, don't you think?
Are you up to it?

 

[duzie]

What exactly?

I was interested in how you were framing the thread.
It seems destined to be getting derailed though

Nah, I will continue (maybe even later today or tomorrow) and just post links to the "content" posts in the opening post and on any last "content" post to the next one, so navigation should be doable, regardless of whether we will see yet some 20 more pages about the greatness of the CAGED system. But I'm absolutely sure that before this will happen, @Eagle will take up my offer and play some really tasteful chord compings for us.

It’s not a derail it’s a genuine question as to the point of this over other things???

I have explained it before. You apparently didn't understand it. Fine. But I promise it's got nothing to do with my explanation.

I see Eagle’s out making friends again.

 

[Sascha Franck]

I really don't get it. I mean, how short term is your memory if you don't remember how it ended just 2 pages ago?

Just for clarification: Didn't mean you, @norminal.

Your explanation is bullshit like this method of reinventing the wheel.

Ok. Enough is enough.
You, of all people, very apparently have no clue about these things. You have proven it more than once by babbling meaningless nonsense.
You are ALWAYS just talking the talk but NEVER walking the walk. All you seem to be able to do is coming up with videos of the Marbin dude (just so that nobody gets me wrong: a great guy, one of the best guitar playing/teaching channels on YT IMB), but very likely you don't even understand what he's all about. As soon as you try to "explain" things in your own words, it's becoming a train wreck.
And when you finally get called out on all that BS, you need to resort to name calling:

So, FFS, I'm having enough of it. And I seriously mean it. If you keep derailing this thread any further, I will report someone for the first time ever on this forum and ask the moderator team to not give you writing access in this thread anymore.
I was enough of an idiot to fall for your meaningless arguments the last time, completely derailing two pages of this thread, but it's not gonna happen again. Open your own CAGED thread. Tell the world how great it is. Post some examples of your most excellent playing, transcending all the secrets of the fine art of guitar chord comping. Great. But as far as this thread is concerned, I'm plain and simply telling you this: Fuck off!

Good grief, just Frozen it already and let it go man.

You are on my ignore list moron .

Best news of the day.

Thanks for adding the links in the first post, bookmarked.

I will try to get back to this thread and work it out for myself when I have the capacity. Appreciate you sharing all of this @Sascha Franck

 

[Dogboy]

Did you read the thread?

I tried, but it put me to sleep. Which is why I asked the question….

People have been asking me to teach them how to shred for 40 years, and I’ve always told them to memorize the natural notes on their instrument and burn in their triads. Not that I’ve ever been a shredder, but guitar players aren’t the sharpest pencils in the jar so….

 

[Sascha Franck]

On Tuesday I'll do them all in Bb, Wednesday in Eb etc. through the circle of 5ths. After about a month of this I should have my triads under my fingers and in my brain pretty well.

I actually don't do it this way. I just play. I do however try to cover as many keys as possible. And I do especially try to cover less guitar friendly keys - because even if transposing is easy and sometimes things are just a centimeter away, there's still a noticeable difference between, say, C and Db, even if you leave the open strings out.

Well, I'm afraid I can't help you then. Because I explained anything there is to explain (at least so far) already.
If you know all your triads already, if you can play and modify them fluently all over the neck already, this thread isn't for you. And that's not even remotely meant snarky or whatever. Be happy about it. Seriously.
