This 'Beginner' Blues Shape can Actually Sound HUGE on Guitar..

[@firstsgtrichard]

Gonna take this old man about a month to learn this...but it's great! Thanks! Started guitar at 60...never too late to learn. You are the best my friend!

[@fredtaylor9792]

I feel the same way. I started 8 years ago at 36yo and had a kid the same year. In 7 years I've hardly had any time to practice each week. A teenager with no obligations can probably catch up to my skill level in 6 months. But you know what, I bet there's a 70yo out there picking up guitar thinking it's too late and an 80yo doing and thinking the same. Perhaps before the internet, it would be more difficult to pick it up later in life but I think, now more than ever, it's never too late.

ReMeMbEr.....doesn't matter how IT works...just KnOw that it does!🎸

[@leemark63]

All my life I've wanted to play guitar real bad. Now I do. 🤟

[@efrenpichardo8643]

Starting guitar now is going to make you live into your 100! It's good for your soul! It's good.

[@Alwaysonly1forme]

​@@fredtaylor9792I'm that 70 year old fred 🙂

[@JohnNesbit1957]

The way you've marked the finger positions and linger with them gives the hand eye coordination and muscle memory a chance to see it, and absorb it, fast and easily. Your videos continue to shine through as some of best lessons to master simple and quick guitar techniques, that are easy to remember. Your talents are many but your ability to teach in a very concise manner is exceptional.

[@dgmg1578]

Excellent lesson.There goes the first 3 hours of my Saturday.Thank you

[@robertstabley8323]

LOL

[@Alwaysonly1forme]

I've been stuck in the "endless beginner syndrome" with blues, learning a few riffs and playing them over and over. Came across you last night, really appreciate your instructions, the way you've marked the finger positions, your tips on improvisation and explanations.

[@Fastlane05]

I would call this Jazzy Blues. Great lesson Eddie!

[@alexguimaraes8284]

Great stuff. You make it sound so simple and easy. thanks a lot

[@tlcannon88]

I have that same Silvertone hollowbody!! I inherited from my grandpa about 10 years ago, mint condition!! I get a lot of feedback and 'humm' when I play it with the tube amp. Is that foam insert on the bridge? Would like to know more about it

[@billEarth42]

The chords have a great jazz sound , and that lead pattern reminds me so much of BB King - thanks, Eddie!

[@BobLasar13]

This is exactly what I was looking for and it was right there when I opened KZbin. Thank you so much!

[@Rick1198s]

Eddie, I love these quick 'bites' of knowledge, ideas and techniques, and your graphics are so well done. GMM, you 🤘🏼🎸

[@OttoVonRaz]

First off, your tone is just amazing! How are you getting that sound? And your teaching style is very easy to understand and right to the point. Thank you for sharing this with us!

[@OTCRock4one]

I subscribed to Guitar mastery method a long time ago! You always put out great content and this is especially an excellent lesson. It takes the boring blues sound and makes it sound technical and professional at same time…it’s really awesome. I love it. thank you very much!

[@smokingtarheel3003]

This is great! Thanks!

[@johnw614]

Very useful lesson. I'm off to give it a try!

[@joecool5670]

Great Lesson. My Son ( who is very much better in Bluesguitar ) will be impessed next Time.

[@b-linespecial6993]

Thanks so much for your lessons...they are super helpful. I have a question about your guitars physical position. What do you use to keep your guitar in that position without a strap? Thanks

[@bravo4adventure988]

Great lesson…can’t wait to get home and play this!

[@cahoffsongs]

Great job, you’re a good teacher.

[@paulrakowski340]

Thanks Eddie, Best lesson

[@charlesarmstrong5292]

Another excellent lesson THANKS!!

[@WadePluff]

Nice teaching style

[@oldguydave7355]

Thanks very much, these help me enormously,

[@filotest3093]

This is so good! Thank you very much.

[@indyartmusic1142]

Hi Eddie, thanks for another great video and for something to really get out teeth into and practice!! Awesome Man!!!!! Can i ask, is the backing track you use available to download at all? Cheers! You Rock!

[@federicof6916]

Really simple and powerful way to improvvise bit i also like when u talk about why these things works not only because of shape, but intervals, major, dominant and so on House of bb is always a good place to stay and improvise. Why not adding thumb on 6 string or pinkie barre on 1st string to add even more variations?

[@shahriaralmassi7086]

Good combo, good combo ... thanks a lot ...😎👉 🎸

[@mickhanson7574]

Awesome Silvertone man!

[@stephenmahlstedt7276]

That's a rad lesson! I can't wait to starting working with this when I have time to play later this afternoon. Cheers!

[@Whitney62455]

that was one the most fu lessons! you should have added your chords to a loop and then impro'd the lead too. I will be working on this. and yeah, I'll subscribe too. thanks

[@georget7028]

Nice one.

[@SixtyEightCircles]

Excellent! Thanks.

[@oldguydave7355]

Love your lessons Eddie, what is the name of that beautiful Guitar?

[@shifty473]

Great stuff.

[@Introverted100]

Awesome lesson. Thanks

[@Greenjagsurf]

Many thanks for this! Perhaps we should sacrifice a pick to the Jazz masters for the roots of this?

[@ReasonedRhetoric]

I found that shape ages ago, I call it the little house. I noticed it shows up a lot of times in blues and other lead breaks,

[@Coolbreeze72]

Super impressive ❤

[@StarshipTrooper2050]

I think it would benefit your audience if you explained why the chord is an A9…. Most of them know what an A is, or an Am…etc…it struck me odd that you said they didn’t need to know why it worked, it just that it works…peace bro…nice axe and great videos…

[@OnwardAndEdward]

Hey man, this is meant to be more of a quick way into playing blues for newer players. Sometimes when I dive into the theory, I tend to lose some people, and other times I get told there’s not enough theory 😅 oh well I’m still learning how to appeal to more folks. Ultimately I’m trying to give y’all a quick win that you can play even if you don’t know a lick of theory.

[@CobblerzsongImmaSoleMan]

He did explain it. He said it has all of the elements of an A9 except the A note which is being played by the rhythm player. Which makes it Implied.

[@MichaelJonesC-4-7]

Why omit the A7? A7(sus)? You can go on forever.

[@painter08]

Hey Eddie, how is that chord stab A9? Its sounds good, maybe a shell chord

[@Juv_Son_of_Hud]

How old is that Silvertone? I used to look at Silvertone guitars in the old Sears catalog back in 1964 when I dreamed of wanting to play guitar when the Beatles were brand new on the music scene! Is Silvertone still the same company? I remember they had a black and white solid body electric and two fat hollow bodies with brown sunburst finish I particularly was enamored with the one that had an arched top with F-holes! I wonder how it would have sounded and played! Oh yeah, the solid body had an amp built into the case!!!

[@OnwardAndEdward]

It’s a ‘65 Silvertone 1454!

[@Juv_Son_of_Hud]

@@OnwardAndEdward Excellent!! Thanks!

[@mickhanson7574]

Very nice!

[@aceswerling]

Love this! So helpful. I bought your class last weekend and here's even more. I've wanted to play blues for decades and your stuff has finally gotten me started. My college-aged self thanks you very much.

[@CarlosCuenta-Music]

Where were you when I was playing and struggling through these scales? LOL

[@fredtaylor9792]

6:30 you just created the Fran Lab theme. Lol

[@robertmogavero4596]

Not to be a stickler but those are not 9th chords in any way shape or form, you can refer to them in 4 ways, at fret 4 that would be considered a C sharp minor with a flat 5, a G6 with a sharp 11, an E minor 6, or a B sus with a flat 6 add 9, an the same names would apply as you move up the fret but with the root names changing obviously

[@OnwardAndEdward]

Not 9th chords in any way shape or form? It contains a sharp 3rd, flat 7th, 9th, and 5th. In the context of playing a I-IV-V blues in A, it seems to imply those chords. Unless I’m really missing something. Plus, at any blues jam I’ve been to, they all know what I’m referring to when I tell them the chords in this way lol

[@Mizzdr111]

CnAt it be A9 no root? Ive learned a chord can be many other chords even in different keys, just how you apply them...

[@didifischervideo]

nice : ))

[@alanraymond1545]

I would call that a A79 D79 E79.. Notes are ---- from low to high --- major 3rd, Dominant 7th 9th and 5th. The bass player needs to cover the root.

[@lightninwillie2261]

Gotta have a dom 7th to have a ninth...
