Master Triads Across the Fretboard and Unlock a Powerful New Soloing Language
Why do some guitar solos sound effortlessly melodic, harmonically rich, and modern, while others feel stuck in basic scales?
The secret lies in triads: deceptively simple three-note structures that form the core of nearly every harmony we play.
Triad Soloing for Modern Guitar is your step-by-step roadmap to turning these essential shapes into a complete, expressive improvisation system for jazz, fusion, blues, rock, and more - guided by non-other than triad master craftsman Oz Noy.
Whether you're navigating fast-moving changes or stretching out over a modal vamp, triads give you melodic control, rhythmic clarity, and access to colourful upper extensions without relying on scale patterns.
You'll develop a sophisticated, intervallic approach that lets you target chord tones, build strong motifs, and create solos with real harmonic direction.
Inside the book, you'll learn to:
Play major, minor, augmented and diminished triads across the entire guitar fretboard
Use triad patterns for intervallic phrasing and motivic development that cuts through the harmony
Apply chromatic enclosures to target chord tones and upper structures with precision and authentic bebop styling
Combine triad pairs (inside and outside the key) to create cutting-edge harmonic tension and release
Craft lyrical, modern lines using add9 triads and four-note melodic cells in the style of Allan Holdsworth, Wayne Krantz, Eric Johnson, and Jonathan Kreisberg
Each concept is taught using practical examples and reinforced with detailed, musical solo studies.
Not only will you learn to combine triads with arpeggios, pentatonics, bends, and chromaticism in a musical way, you'll also master guitar solos written over familiar progressions ranging from bebop standards to modal grooves and fusion sequences.
When you've completed the course you'll be able to:
Outline chords melodically in real time
Solo fluently across changes using triads
Visualise triads in every position and inversion
Create expressive, modern lines with rhythmic variety
Combine triads with arpeggios, pentatonics and chromaticism
This book is for any guitarist who wants to break out of box shapes and build melodic lines that sound connected to the harmony.
Whether you play jazz, fusion, blues or modern rock, Triad Soloing for Modern Guitar gives you the tools and fretboard fluency to take your improvisation to the next level.
