My fretting hand is physically and irrevocably damaged from arthritis. Big stretches are painful. Triads are my safe spot for my playing. I love this video. It's perfect for me! Already gotten the tabs from your Patreon page, since I am one.

[spidgeb]

Y'know, I just love the fact that an accomplished, humble, and generous guitar player sharing his knowledge has over 3 million subscribers. There's hope, folks.

RHCP's Zephyr Song taught me about triads. Frusciante always shows so well that beauty lies in simplicity. Can't wait for their new album.

30 seconds in, and I must say… gosh your camera production look is FANTASTIC! The video is just perfect, deep colors, moody lighting without being obvious… very tasteful… well done… now, on to the actual lesson :-) EDIT: The lesson was as awesome as the pretty visuals :-)

[borderlineguitarguy]

Finally, a video where someone actually shows you how to practically apply triads in real situations. Not just the typical " Hey learn triads its the secret to soloing."

[ayaanrashadmustakim]

Learning triad took me years ahead in my guitar
IT'S BEAUTIFUL!

[Prossdog]

I honestly think Paul gives the best guitar lessons on YouTube. They’re quick, always enjoyable, and incredibly practical, no matter your playing level. I’ve been playing for 25 years and I have found so many new things to work on from his videos. Thanks for all the free wisdom Paul!

[ataxexe]

The Next Level Playing is bringing back the passion I had for guitar. I was stuck and couldn't go further but every single bit of Paul teaching is enough to give me energy to just play, enjoy and fall in love again with music.

Thank you Paul.

[Russell_Optics]

I learn something useful with every video you make. I always pick up my guitar to watch your video's because I know I will want to try whatever you are teaching right away. Very articulate and easy to understand. Thank you Paul

[callumcarscadden]

Really appreciating these little tab pop-ups. Thanks Paul

[sunsetjunior]

I had figured much of this out for myself over the last year or so and I gotta say, getting what Paul is pushing in this lesson is one of the ‘big’ points of unlocking more refined (and oftentimes easier and better sounding) approaches and results.

[martynblades]

Highly recommend the next level playng course!

Got it last year and I've come on leaps and bounds with my playing more on that one year than 15 years 🤣 thanks so much Paul! The best guitar tutor on the world wide web !!

[joshuagallua]

Love your transition technique for revisions and asides. Very smart stuff.

[pizzatothemax]

I've been exploring the electric guitar lately and I'm SO GLAD to have watched this! Perfect timing since I want to make these sounds too. Thanks so much!!

[jochem]

I love your editing! It really adds to the content of your videos and makes them so interesting

[Coryharris]

I have learned more from you since discovering your videos than in the past 20 years playing guitar. Thank you for your content and how you explain/teach.

[rawbhimself]

This is exactly what I need to be learning right now!

[khromenon]

Amazing! Man, you're the best guitar teacher on the internet! Clear, objective and always giving some nice tricks and making theory as easy as it should. Congrats!

[Sky.Sky.]

You are not just a good guitar player /teacher
But you have what not many people have and thats taste for beautiful music.
Thanks for the lesson, as always great one.
