    Jesus, I am so old and have been playing for a long time, but every time I watch one of your instructional videos I learn something new that is instantly playable. I would say that you should go back and be a professor again, but then again, you already did! And now you have a much bigger classroom. Hell yeah I bought the Beato Book, and I didn't even wait for a live stream to get a discount! I'm a fan.

      Agreed as well. 34 years playing experience but I've been diving into as much theory as I can. As much as I felt I knew-some things weren't a surprise-, there were a ton of things I didn't know. Love discovering what I don't know. And much mahalos to Mr. Beato.

    Spread Triads, and triads in general, are some of the most fundamental at the heart of melodies and soloing! Quite beautiful sounding, and you can expand so much on them!

    @lastdaysguitar 4 года назад +10

    Thanks for publishing this very important lesson, Rick! One of the great little "secrets" in the ambient/new age genre to create widest soundscapes is literally "expanding" (spreading) the chords. Glad you are such a huge Pat Metheny fan & proponent - I've been a fan since "New Chautauqua" so we share this 6 string hero, lol. Hope you can get Pat as a guest on the show someday! PS: Eric J is amazing too!

    This is something I've put a lot of work into lately. After watching one of Tim Pierce's excellent videos about the same subject, I've started to look for chord-shapes all around the neck, and playing with and around those. I've only dvelved into basic minor and major harmonies for now, bit this has already done wonders familiarizing me with my neck, understanding scales and harmony-knowledge. If only I knew this when I started playing, my solos wouldn't have sucked as much the last 20 years!
    Great video as usual Rick. Thanks for all the lessons, and take care in these strange times we live in.

    Just a small mis-speak around 3:45ish when introducing the diminished triad you first say "one flat three five" but correct the rest of the time during the examples. just wanted to mention for anyone that may get confused learning this stuff for the first time!

    @antoniomariano3797 4 года назад +2

    Hi Rick, great lesson as usual!
    As a way of organizing all the different shapes (3 inversions x 4 types of triads) I like to start from the shape of an augmented triad, as for that one the tonic could be any of the notes, and then lower the 5th, 3rd and 5th again to derive the shapes of the major, minor and diminished triads for the same tonic. Clearly which note is the 3rd and 5th follows from the choice of the tonic. The same approach works for the "closed" triads.

    @JQbravo 4 года назад +3

    Thanks, Rick! You’ve made several videos on Spread Triads and each one has helped deepen my familiarity of the guitar. Julian Lage’s “Etude 1” is a dazzling display of spread triads. I’ve been using 4 measure sections as a warm-up. Not nearly as fast as Julian though 🤯

    • @slammerton
      @slammerton 4 года назад +1

      @@UltraMonable It also took me some time to understand that. The Csus4 shape = Fsus2. Okay so let's assume you have learned the Csus4 shape. Now you play a song which only goes C to F. You could play the Csus4 shape all the time and then only would change between Csus4 and Fsus2.
      *If you dont know what a fourth is the keyword is "intervalls" which is the foundation of western music and a understanding of this will improve your playing tremendously.

      @mon productions the sus4 and sus2 chords are inversions of each other. If we have C (1) F (4) G (5) and we put it in first inversion we have F (1) G (2) and C (5). I show how this relates to the guitar in my latest video!

I had little knowledge of music and your videos frustrated me and made me mad because I was just beginning and trying to learn the basics of the guitar. Then you did the Led Z video describing the sounds in Ramble On. You took the time to find out from the man who did the work how he did it and destroyed a myth that I had heard for years. I Bought Your Book After That! Thank you for what you do and could you do more beginner videos for your daughters and loyal followers. Mahalo!

    This is a very good video, Rick...if I apply this at all in my playing, it is because it is part of a solo that I had to learn for some cover song. I know about various open chord inversions from music theory in college (and we had band and choir teachers in high school in our town in the late 70's that were just over the top good...so we were all very fortunate to sit under the teaching of those people)...but never thought to apply that in arpeggio fashion to guitar improvisation...I knew THAT people like Eric Johnson were doing these cool interval arpeggio things, but never realized the WHAT in theory that they were doing...and just a few minutes of watching this, I was like Ohhh...what they are doing I already know those concepts, just didn't realize what in theory they were applying to achieve that in their playing and improvising...wow man...hey, thanks for sharing this one with us...hope you and yours are well!!
