    Great visuals on the connections. All this stuff should be taught together. Triads. Arpeggios. Match it to the appropriate major/minor scales and it’s just magic. Literally all right there. Take my like AND subscribed. Well done. Thank you.

    Brilliant! _"See the shapes."_ For those of us who don't read music (well me, certainly), shapes on the fretboard is how we work. Anyone learning guitar, who thinks that reading music or tab is essential, should watch this video. You need only read the fretboard.

    Hi- Thanks for the video What Are the 4 chords you are playing?

  • @armandosinger

    Do you mean what are the names of these triad chords? Because she’s plying the root, 3, and 5, the chord quality is major (minor chords have a b3). If you look the root note in the diagram, the root note is always D, so these are all variants of the D major chord. But some are inversions. Pattern 2 is R (lowest), 3, 5, so that is plain D major (D F# A). Pattern 3 is 3, 5, R (F# D A) so that is D/F# because F# is the lowest note. Pattern 1 is 5, R, 3 (A D F#) so that is D/A because the A is the lowest note. So you only have 3 chords here: D, D/F#, and D/A. So D major and it’s 2 inversions. The 4th chord is the exact same as chord 1, just 1 octave higher (also D/A)-same notes and same shape.
