- In this MicroLesson, I'll explain how using triads can make a huge difference in the way you improvise a melody, and how to combine them with the pentatonic scales.

It bothers me that this presenter has a guitar that I want.
It is beautiful in every way.
Thanks for the tip. I have to figure out what it is. @@youarenotaghost2589
So what?
I want the old school big stereo in the background!😂😂😂
I would suggest you get a handle on your jealousy 😂
Wow Brian, this micro lesson is a HUGE lesson!!!!!! Lots of great concepts in just 12 minutes. Awesome !!!! Thanks a lot!!!!!
Agree 100% that this lesson is huge. Now if i can only get a handle on “weaving” the trisds and the pentatonic together. Maybe just following exactly what he did and playing it often?
Hope your son knows how lucky he is to have you teaching him guitar like this.
This micro lesson teaches more valuable information and techniques than most people’s macro lessons!!
I love those chromatic walkdowns you use at the end !!
Best YT guitar teacher.. but can we take a second to appreciate how Brian is one of the best players on YT period! I don't care about shreddy licks, and sweep picking. I care about melody. I care about phrasing. I care about composition, and creativity. Brian has that mastered!
No exaggeration- one of my favorite players ever. I can't express how much I appreciate Brian's playing! Coming from an SRV/Hendrix/Clapton nerd, that is a huge compliment.
Facts! Brian rocks!
ɓrian is THE best.
Excellent
I have played guitar since 1967 and have never seen a more concise and informative lesson. Very well done! Thank you!!!
Brian..I said if before. You are way better than anyone else out there. Have a great Xmas
love the lesson... what guitar are you playing ?
First of all thank you so much for all of your online content you’ve made a world of a difference in the last 2 months of my playing and improving.
When we are supposed to mix triads with major and minor scales, do we imagine the triads as their own chords, but laying over the pentatonics/scales of the keys root note? or do we swap scales with the chord tone we are highlighting.
Thank you again for all your teachings!
My death metal band members will love this
What’s that guitar? Looks great…
Love it. Family lessons are golden. I'm glad you shared this with us. More on this subject, please! You're a very good teacher! Thanks so much!
This Guitar is sooo beautiful. 😍
I enjoyed the lesson, but thought the solo you played at the end sounded much more Country than Bluesy. Is that what you were going for?
This is a great video to understand how and when to incorporate "double stops" in your blues-rock soloing. Even just adding a few of these techniques, including sliding into the double-stops, can make the single-note pentatonic soloist (the typical intermediate player) sound more bluesy and legit.
I really love that guitar. What brand and model is it?
Excellent lesson! You tied everything together beautifully. I think the secret sauce is showing the actual application of the triads concept with a jam track. That, and you have a great ear!
I need these kind of lessons, nicely explained Brian
Small bites every day. Have benefits. recap The next day with A Bit More.. I learned 10 Songs last night.
Nice! I don’t think it’s a stretch to say this lesson could be expanded to fit a song like Brown Eyed Girl. It’s the same key with Emi in the progression.
As a beginner, focused primarily on learning melodies, I have a question anyone here would care to answer. If I start a melody in the key of C, can you weave into it the minor pentatonic scale then jump to a major scale? Before watching this I thought if you play in the key of C you're basically staying in the major scales. Like I said, I'm a beginner:)
yes, you can start a melody in the C major scale, jump over to the C minor pentatonic scale to blues things up, and them jump back into C major pentatonic or C major scale. this only works if the song is in a major key though. If the song is in a minor key - you couldn't use the C major scale, or C major pentatonic scale.
What kind of guitar is this?
it's. wide sky
I agree with this. I started learning triads when I was 14, and it worked for me learning to play lead.
Andy sums this Important For Any Guitar Playing at Any Level tutorial, just Great Stuff. Bravo All around!
Great video! Sorry I just couldn't stop drifting away and looking at the guitar a few times. It's so beautiful with the nice light on it.
Beautiful lesson & what guitar is that?
Been playing for 10-15 years now and finally getting to Triads haha opens everything up!
Excellent llessons thanks. Can you tell me what make of giutar is? Looks and sounds great!
Great lesson! That really opened a few doors for me.
Clear as mud lol Unfortunately I’m a visual learner
it makes a-lot of huge assumptions that you know all the notes on the fret board and where the intervals you need are - like your flat 7
As a beginner where do I start on your channel? Which lesson is for absolute beginner? I love your channel.
Where'd u get that guitar, I'd live one,sounds very clear.. enjoyed
Lost me within the first minute with these triads....I just don't get how to break down an entire chord into pieces.
Is this guitar satin? Beautiful! Looks like I am in a 1930 movie.
What is that guitar. Iv never seen one it's a beutiful work of art❤❤
Wide Sky
You exploded my mind!! This is a bit excellent mate!!!!!!!
Great lesson! Love the size and sound of that Wide Sky!
Would you like a new 57 year son?
🤣
Nice!! Thank you
nice lesson thanks !! beautiful guitar
Kind of going too fast, but I did learn a few things I guess
Great lesson , thank you , and love that guitar
That "simple" jam you did at the end was off the hook!
🔥🎸
I have had more aha moments with your lessons and this was another. You sir are a fantastic teacher.
Great lesson, especially the demonstration at the end.
Great vid. Beautiful guitar!!!!!
What’s that lovely guitar you are playing?
Wow, great stuff, Brian!
And, I'd sure like to have (or even just play) some of your guitars!
All those years ago, I thought being a musician was a "dead end job."
To me, it depends on how good you are, ie, how well you play.
Of course, that in itself depends on how much it drives you. Because, if you're driven (like I am), you'll practice all the time, and you'll always work hard to keep getting better!
(Which is what I do.)
I can only wonder how good I'd be today, if I hadn't taken a 30+ year hiatus, lol.
Still, I'm better than I was a year ago, and I see progress weekly, sometimes daily!
Especially with your lessons!
You're an excellent teacher, and many of the songs you've written to illustrate a concept have helped me in ways that I can't describe.
I always learn a lot about playing when I learn the songs, and I continue to learn when I practice them!
Often I'll add to them or change them in places.
As I get better, I'm more confident (and better) at modifying them. Sometimes I'll go around & around, playing something over & over (with my own transition to begin again) and I'll play certain sections differently each time.
This is all helping me to improvise!
All on account of your teaching me theory and improv "secrets."
See, you (and most ppl) thought this comment was all about me, lol.
But, I brought it back around to thanking you!
👍 👌
WOW your son is learning guitar!!! That’s great.
What glorious guitar
Is that you are holding?
Does anybody knows what guitar is it?
Awesome. I have got to do that right away 😅
Cool guitar. Great lesson
I don't understand a single thing... where do I go from here... I've been playing 3 years and only have basic theory knowledge.
Thanks for the info packed Micro lesson. You should know, I'm very jealous of your son, he gets you live !!! Oh well, while this is 2nd best., It's better than anything else out there 👍👍👍👍👍
I wonder what it would've been like to learn guitar from my dad. Someone I actually respected. Probably would've been awesome, I reckon.
Thanks Brain 🙏🍀👌🎼❤️🎵🎶🎸✌️
Exactly the type of sound I want to learn. Thanks for the lessons, brother! Juggalo Nation #1.
Another EXCELLENT video Brian. I have a question that has been burning in my brain for quite some time. What do you use to create backing tracks QUICK?
This is a wonderful lesson! Thank you! Your guitar is simply beautiful. What is it?
This is great. You make it seem so easy 😄
I'll echo what others have said: This lesson is micro in length only. I think my guitar playing just jumped a level. Brian, man, you give me hope that I might actually be a half-decent guitar player one of these days. Please keep doing what you're doing. And a very Merry Christmas to you and yours!
If this is a “micro” lesson then a “macro” lesson would explode my skull. Lots of good content here that will keep me busy with good, focused practice.
Woohoo. Brilliant.
I think that was a G chord using the E shape? Not an E. Not intending to criticize just trying to reinforce my limited knowledge.
I had the Still of the First Frame of your video on my 43" monitor for a while... when i came back i noticed that we have the exact same strap!!!
When improvising with triads do you keep track of the intervals when your playing the notes ?
Excellent lesson. I saw the guitarist at my messianic congregation playing what you just described here. It sounded good but I didn’t know what it was. Then your lesson finds its way to me this morning. What timing! Those were triads! Thank you!
I can not thank you enough !
Hi Brian, I love the way you use caged. I hope to get there someday and I'm closing in on you, lol. Sounds great with the harmonies.
3:22 that's what she said...
Question. Across so many videos, it seems like everyone's guitars are tuned a half step down. Is this something to do with the compression of the videos? That doesn't seem to make sense, but I can't quite figure it out. I'm sitting here with my tuner, so it would seem that my guitar is in tune...
my guitars are always in standard tuning in these videos
@@activemelody I figured. It's not just. your channel. Very strange. Incidentally, I was drilling how to find each occasion of a note on the fretboard and it revealed exactly how terrible the intonation is on my little Epiphone. Perhaps it would benefit from a setup.
Great lesson.
as a fellow guitar teacher, hats off to very nice step by step lesson.
This is a major discovery for me. Thanks a lot, really :-) and happy new year
This is one of the greatest guitar lessons on RUclips. This pushes me way ahead of where I used to play. Well done and nice guitar, too.
This is great! Looking forward to ML104 to dive a bit deeper///
Thank you man, you're good at what you are doing. Thumbs-up
One of the most boring lessons i have ever tried to sit through *yawn
thanks for telling us. lol
Excellant! I'm gonna have to watch this lesson a few times to get all that.!
great lesson thanks
Interesting, can see where Western swing and rockabilly comes in 👍
Another outstanding lesson. Your explanations are great and easy to follow. Your son is lucky to have a Dad that can teach him how to play guitar.. Have a Merry Christmas.
Gr EA t lesson - thanks !
👍🏼
Please do all the shapes
very nice... tasteful and well thought-out 👍
I'm convinced that only humanities and the arts will save this world what a wonderful father and teacher you are
Less than a minute in to the video and I've got to say, what a beautiful guitar! I think I'm in love 😍
It amazes me how many good players do not use their forth finger .. . imagine what they can do if they did.
That was juicy
What a brilliant lesson! Have played guitar a long time and never have seen this technique. Thanks for the video mate!
Major pentatonic sounds much better for this progression
Ive played a lot of rock and jazz but no one ever showed me this, this is a hoot to play! Thank you!
Go buy you one work 3 jobs😢
That's some good teaching! Thank you...
That was awesome
Thanks for this! I’ve been following your lessons re the triads and it has elevated my playing and this is neat element to add to the whole concept
As always a great lesson! Thanks and Merry Christmas
Can you tell me what is the guitar you are playing? Brand?
good stuff sir!
