Triad Studies for Perfect Fourths Guitar Tuning Volume 1 of 3: The Basics. Getting Started With Tria

This book provides an introductory treatment of Western music's foundational chord tone triads. It focuses on the Major, Minor, Augmented and Diminished triads.

By looking at something as simple as a triad from multiple perspectives, you'll better appreciate what is possible. As you learn the triads in different shapes, your muscle memory will begin to take over, and you can combine the shapes in various groupings to achieve different effects.

The more ways you can play a triad, the more ways you can express yourself.

Many of the diagrams in this book are similar: after all, it is only four chords! This book goes deep into the relationships between the shapes in different contexts. Each page shows a particular relationship between the chord tones and a shape on the fingerboard.

You can open the book to any page to work on it or work from beginning to end.
