Steve Krenz at Guitar Gathering has a very good triad and arpeggio workout on youtube with handouts and it is FREE! Check it out.

It's interesting how a Gsus2 is the same as a Dsus4.
I think i got that right, but in any case, I have not played with Sus chords too much but that video showed it rather clearly and brought up some interesting things to think about. Especially about two identical sounding chords being named differently. There's probably lots of theory behind that is way over my head. Thank you for sharing !! Very informative. J |

This is one of the aspects an advantages of learning triads. As long as you make yourself consciously aware of the notes you're playing. Or to sing them out, like our friend said earlier on in the thread. All good stuff. Rather than just relying on the memorising of patterns. |

I'm somewhere halfway between knowing the notes I'm playing and not knowing. I need to think about 10 seconds and confirm by playing an octave of the note I suspect it is near the nut (ie in a Cowboy Chord derivative).
I'm getting better and better, but it's a journey, you need to have fun along the way, so I don't try to memorize notes just for memorization. If I come across a triad or chord I really like, I might endeavor for a while to figuring out the actual notes. Again, I haven't dived into suspended chords, I mostly do majors, minors and sevenths.

Suspended chords are good because it impresses the ladies and all of a sudden they want to get to know you better. But more importantly, they create a nice ambiguity. Pete Townsend was a big fan of them, he reckoned the sound of them made his great big nose seem smaller. Pinball Wizard is littered with them, sus4 chords not big noses! :-)

I think Quadrophenia, in general, has SUS chords all over the place.
What an awesome album and what an awesome POWER GUITARIST (Pete Townsend) J |

Using double stops and open strings to make triads is always fun.

This is good by Paul David’s, gives insight on how Hendrix played triad and chord fragment to incorporate into his licks and riffs. Really has given my practicing purpose. Also means I can play at the edge or slightly beyond my comfort zone. |

Hi, I'm getting back into Affinity Designer having not really used it much for a couple of years. I have produced the following images in the hope that other may find them useful.
As you can see have produced the shapes for each of the groups of three strings. This made it all much clearer to me. I hope it does for others too. In each case, if the root is one the thickest string, that is root position. If the root is on the thinnest string, that is first inversion. If the root is on the medium string, that is second inversion. I'm beginning to be able to include more and more of these shapes into my improvisation and I believe it has been a major contribution to my playing.
