In Episode 14, we cover three important topics for developing guitarists:

1. What are triads—and how do you actually use them on guitar?
We break down how major and minor triads work, where they live on the fretboard, and how they can unlock rhythm and lead playing in any style.

2. Tremolo—what kind are we talking about?
We explore the different types of tremolo you’ll find on guitars and amps—from traditional vibrato arms to amp-based volume tremolo and pedal effects—along with tips on when and how to use them tastefully.

3. Listener Q&A!
We round off the episode by answering audience-submitted questions, covering everything from practice routines to gear choices.

This episode is great for beginner and intermediate players who want to improve fretboard knowledge and develop tone awareness—while staying inspired and informed.
