Three Octave Shapes
Do we need to learn triad arpeggios on the guitar?
Alongside seventh arpeggios, triads are essential learning for any guitarist that wishes to become a developed improvisor or composer.
See my article “Which Arpeggios Should Guitarists Learn?” for a brief discussion on which arpeggios, triads and sevenths, guitarists should learn.
Note: Not all of these arpeggio triad shapes are convenient to perform on the guitar, due to awkward finger. However each permutation is shown here for completeness.
