Ive been playing guitar for 15 or 17 years.
I always hated doing Theory
I started with learning power chords and the Gmajor scale.
After a while i learned the 7th chords and i could play the major scale anywhere on the fretboard, also all the modes.
Now still struggling with chords ofton, wanting to use the minor scales and the chords its a mess im in.
I just started to go back to basics and started with triads.
Do you guys have any tips for me?
My take on how to do the triads is:
1. knowing the diagrams
2. Knowing what the root, third and fifth is of the triad im playing
3. speling the notes im playing
Am i missing anything?
Why i ask this is, im taking the time to learn all off this and want to do this correct at last. I dont know all the notes on the fretboard so i guess triads will also help with this.
I ofton post backing tracks here on the forum. I started making backing tracks while i was learning chords, formulas etc. and wanted to try them out. Now i want to start to spice things up using the minor scales.
Well to learn the minor scales is easy but i know that knowing what ill be doing is something different
