http://bitly.com/mastergtr is my website! Triads is a very simple and very powerful concept. Mixing them into your pentatonic knowledge can make a world of difference. A Triad is simply the 1st, 3rd and 5th notes from the scale for the chord. In this example, the E major chord has the notes E, G#, and B. If you play the first 5 notes from the E major scale, but remove the 2nd and the 4th note, you have a Triad. The Triad consists of Chord Tones. You can never go wrong with using Chord Tones!!
Gear: I used a Fender Strat with Zexcoil pickups from http://www.lawingmusicalproducts.com
The amp: A Marshall JVM410H from http://amzn.to/1XV3TmI with a Barbershop overdrive from http://fairfieldcircuitry.com/collections/effect-pedals/products/the-barbershop
The fantastic reverb is from Room & Verbs for EZ Mix 2, from https://www.toontrack.com/
