A common 'chord' used mostly in gutiar based music. It is made by playing the root, 5th and 8th. For the person who said that parallel 5ths and 8ths shouldn't be even used, I think you'll find this is only relevant to Baroque and Classical music. What about Debussy and his use of 5ths and 8ths? In the right context, it can sound fine. So please, stop living in the 18th century.
