Broken Triads – Position 3
Broken Triads in Position 3 means we’ll be looking at the G-shape for this run. This exercise runs through the circle of 5ths instead of chromatic climbing like the previous exercises. Moving around the fretboard like this can pose a bit of a challenge, but it’s very useful to get comfortable with such leaps. It may be difficult at first to nail the jumps between keys with accuracy, or even to remember where to go next. A bit of practice and plenty of repetition will smooth this right out.
The following videos and worksheets only go from the key of C to the key of B through the circle of 5ths. You can extend this out yourself once you get the basic pattern down and it’s a great practice to go all the way through and just cycle it.
