Hello folks,
As part of my injury rehab I'm learning THIS lesson as it's not too demanding on my left arm/shoulder, as a side lesson Gab suggested THIS lesson. One thing that is confusing me, and please don't say "Just play your guitar"  I have a need to understand. My question is this, Why are eighth note triplets called "eighth notes" when there are twelve of them???? Shouldn't they be called twelfth note triplets? I thought eighth notes lasted for an eighth of a bar???   I think this is the kind of thing that makes music theory difficult for me to take in. I've asked Gab in my thread but I've posted it here to help others too.
