Triads as launching pad for chord-solo style playing

[Borderdon]

A useful thread, anyway.

Yeah, some entertaining replies here!

Anyway, this is the sort of stuff I am talking about with triads:

This is PDF of the stuff I covered yesterday. I suspect anyone, regardless of how often they use triads will find something useful here.

Boy that's no lie. There is so much available it's hard to remember everything.

Thanks

It is always tough to figure out what amount of material to teach. I remember when I first started learning Russian I used the Pimsleur method which would use 30 minute audio lessons that repeat many times just a few phrases. So it was more about repetition than volume.

Maybe I had too much volume of material. That is why I tried to have the exercises be similar in spirit even though the amount of material is high. For instance, just the idea of taking a triad on any set of 3 strings (including non-adjacent for open voicings) and playing it up and down fretboard, and connecting in between chords scale tones, is hugely helpful, and that then translates to doing same with 7th chords, and then doing same thing with different scales like Melodic Minor, Harmonic Minor.
