IM-151 • Triad Chord Grips

[sairfingers]

I've been working on the G B e triads for a few weeks now and I use an exercise in the Key of A.

Thanks Toby that’s very helpful and I appreciate your time.
Why is it that everything you try to do with guitar opens up another rabbit hole to disappear down into?😃

I've been working on the G B e triads for a few weeks now and I use an exercise in the Key of A. I chose A because the lowest A starts on the 2nd fret (G string), so I can comfortably work all the way up to the A on the 14th fret. So when I hit the Bdim in position I go to the A at the next octave and repeat.

Toby if you'd like another scale to work on you can start with the C chord.
010 on eBG. The C on the B string is the root? You can also start your A scale with
Am to make the Am scale.

Thanks Stitch I'll take a look at that. I'm sure there a few more "chordal" scales you could find in those first  4 frets on GBe and then work your way progressively up the neck until you start repeating. For example G Major starting with the root on the e 3rd fret. Much to play with but taking baby steps with this one. Knowing the positional relationship of the R III V or R IIIb V (ok adjusting for the B string) but 5th over R and III 1 down 1 back (2 back for minor) makes it easier to find the triads anywhere. Other 3 string clusters are from the future but opens up a world of options. And all from them yellow boxes ;-)
