Prince's rhythm guitar playing was exactly as you described in the video. My son started out playing just riffs and rhythm comping, and he can attest to the fact that he became more competent, far more expediently, as a result, as well as having a better understanding of dynamics within a group.

The honesty and "down-to-earthiness" of some statements got me into subscribing. Keep that, brother!

Definitely improved my rhythm playing a lot learning this years ago, and vital to feeling comfy moving up and down the fretboard. It's like the harmonic glue of whatever chord progression you're playing. This + memorizing note names and knowing how all the different chords relate (common tones, what triads make up 7th chords, etc) will enable you to become a comping wizard and really get creative harmonically. 90% of my songwriting is just experimenting with pivoting chords off common and leading tones lol.

Learning open tunings highlights these partials from the outset...highly recommend it to all 🎶

Yes .. nice Inversions as we jazzers call them When using the same strings that is Once we start using different strings they’re still inversions but not what we usually call 1st inversion 2nd inversion , 3rd inversion like the ones your showing us in the beginning this very important lesson Thanks

Thank you, Eddie. I'm coming back to the guitar after more than 25 years, and when I started, I was getting tips from a friend who showed me power chords. I tried learning lead on my own, and never really got into actually playing rhythm like you show here.

"sultans of swing" is a complete course on comping. ignore the solos......by the time you learn the rhythm you know a great deal about comping. add a few inversions and sus notes and you are there :)

I'm 68, trying to improve my playing, make it more interesting, and this video is burning my brain! But, you do a great job explaining things. Now I just have to put in the hard work of learning. Thank you!

I'm actually a drummer but after 40 plus years of leaving it up to the guitar player to write a hit song i gave up and started to learn how to play guitar as well and when it comes to KZread teachers your a rockstar

Right on Eddie, one of your very finest lessons yet! I was missing the 2nd/3rd/4th string version of the C shape... thanks!

Randy Rhoads - crazy train is this pretty much

OK, It took me 30 years but the best lesson I have had since then. Much thanks

One of the best lessons on actually putting triads to use. Thanks!

Glad you think so!

For me in hindisight. Learn to identify the note by sound not sight. Then stringing the instrument (floyd). Then tuning... hear the note. Barre chords up and down the real estate. Rhythm in a four on the floor back beat than swing time. Then learn your gear.

Excellent lesson! So many harmonies in such a simple small space, and outside of the proverbial box! Dig it!

Mind blown! Thanks for blasting that "secret".

I'm getting EVH vibes off those triad progressions.

HI Eddie... I started as a student rhythm player by choice... I learnt much of what you teach here.. And it's great to see you portray this lesson😊 skillfully! Thanks

That just opened a bunch of doors. Thanks for the lesson!

Ok.... that was a really good lesson and something, that in 20 years of playing, I did not know anything about until now! Thank you!

Thanks for posting this! As an intermediate guitar player this is very helpful! I subscribed to your channel because of this video!

I had been experimenting with these concepts. It's great to know I'm heading in the right direction.

Full Props on the video. Well presented, well done! 😎🇨🇦🎸

what a great lesson... thanks for sharing... going to start practicing this now!! so exciting!!!

Great vid. It’s like playing “lead rhythm,” if that’s what you want. Certainly adds dimension!

The same type of comping even works in Metal, check out the verse sections of Crazy Train 🚂

Such a fantastic guitar lessson you are a ledgend!

Great lesson and demonstration Eddie. It's easy to base all the shapes off a first finger barre and slide them up and down the fretboard. The great Billy Gibbons frequently switches between the A and D triad shapes (or the same shapes in different keys) whilst maintaining the same root (Fool for your Stockings springs to mind)

Check out "Never be clever - Herman Brood".. the opening riff is basically all of these triads played over a droning A string.

Awesome lesson Cheers Eddie (Legend)😊😎🎸☮️✨✨✨🎸👍

A great lesson. Thanks. I've been a bass player for 40+ years but I play rhythm too and, at the moment I'm trying to improve my rhythm playing and increase my knowledge of inversions.

learning that now....coincidently. I"m 61 (playing off/on since 9). Jack Ruch is a master at this... Exciting topic....related to CAGE...

Thanks Eddie! Amazing how you can improvise with triads and double stops to accompany the Rhythm! Nice!

Well done!

Very nice lesson. Thank you. Malcolm

Terrific lesson!

Super interesting. I've been super focused on major and minor triads for a long time but haven't really used them this way. Thank you for the insight

Great stuff!!!

Great lesson, thanks 👏

thats exactly how I traverse the neck and make key changes in general, with that particular set of triads.

Thanks for the video, i would agree rhythm is the biggest stubbling block for most people including myself!

Bro this has got to be the best explanation for triads ever! :D

Theory lets you figure all this out on your own. It's really not so boring once someone explains it in a way that connects with you. Theory and scales are basically just showing you which steps on a ladder go together.

That sounds simple but its actually quite complex.

Do it yourself. Replace all major thirds with the minor ones. C# becomes C, F# becomes F and G# becomes G.

That third position A triad with an added A string is my favourite chord.I use it way too much but if your guitar is intonated and in tune it’s very sweet sounding

Good lesson, apply the caged method of thinking to this and it makes more sense

For my ears, I prefer I IV bVII, which implies a more Mixolydian vibe to match the blues coming. Triads over an A drone would be Amazing, Dmajor and Gmajor

Funny enough, I use the exact A sequence to spice my version of Sultan of Swings...ahahaha!!!

A lot of information in this video...I can definitely see how this would help your rhythm playing...take some time and learn all the chord variations

It took me 30 years!

Randy Rhodes does this on Crazy Train. It's descending, but still the same idea with the resounding A.

Wowzer!!!!

Your teaching how to make music man ! Rhythm with vamped chords or variables like that are what makes notable songs, in that vamp I could hear right away Huey Lewis and the news, do u believe in luv.

I was wondering how long before GMM was going to cover this. I thought it would be a great course.

Reminds me of the verse parts of "Crazy Train."

7:21 Thats the way of Randy Rhoads composition, check Crazy Train.

I guess this should work for any of the chord triad in the key of A.

No longer stuck!~

I new them but i didnt. I never really try them like that' and so easy. Thank u

Dude I love that guitar.. is astoning... is it a Grestch?

I am new on playing guitar and I really need an intensive training

Wonder if RR wrote crazy train verse part working on this type of exercise
