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.

[@brianwells4507]

Absolutely very easy to follow with the dots!

[@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.

[@Cirithungul]

Been teaching myself guitar for a decade and I'm finally able to jam. This kind of video helped me so much and still does.

[@dgmg1578]

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

[@robertstabley8323]

LOL

[@PhiarHawse-w1h]

This is the sort of tuition that I'm looking for. You get an A+ from me, thank you.

[@Fastlane05]

I would call this Jazzy Blues. Great lesson Eddie!

[@BobLasar13]

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

[@motorv8N]

Hey thanks for this great session. I love that you superimpose the position dots on the screen too. That really helps take the mystery out of where your fingertips actually are on the board.

[@Rick1198s]

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

[@GodzillaGoesGaga]

Picked this up within minutes. Great tutorial!

[@billEarth42]

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

[@timg5011]

The very first movable shape I learned was a 9th chord: x21222. Root note on the A string, so thats B9. Second finger on the A string, first finger on the D string, partial barre with the ring finger on the other 3 strings. Great lesson, thanks much. :)

[@MST1059]

Many thanks for this to Eddie for this video.

[@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!

[@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!

[@guloguloguy]

WOW!!! THANK YOU, VERY MUCH, FOR THIS INTERESTING, FUN, AND HELPFUL LESSON/DEMO!!!!!! MUCH APPRECIATED!!!!!

[@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?

[@bravo4adventure988]

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

[@oldguydave7355]

Thanks very much, these help me enormously,

[@armenflintstone]

Years of playing and Worst part for me is I know those boxes and shapes….but when I try in the moment I forget and do my same old thing. It’s partially a confidence thing and feeling/knowing melodically what works. I tend to fall back on that I’m just “guitar George” from the song

[@johnw614]

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

[@leebillyc1677]

Brilliant lesson. You teach so well! Thanks brother

[@joecool5670]

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

[@filotest3093]

This is so good! Thank you very much.

[@alexguimaraes8284]

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

[@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!

[@cahoffsongs]

Great job, you’re a good teacher.

[@tonyaxeman4381]

Pretty good stuff something a buddy and I could do.

[@charlesarmstrong5292]

Another excellent lesson THANKS!!

[@victoranchondo924]

Nice,Thanks Eddie 👍

[@paulrakowski340]

Thanks Eddie, Best lesson

[@ping261054]

You made my day… thank you!

[@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

[@joungsikchun5106]

Thank you! This is golden! Thumbs up, and a new sub!

[@davidheuser2119]

are all of your lessons this amazing????

[@metropixels]

Thank U!!!! Needed a new step!

[@smokingtarheel3003]

This is great! Thanks!

[@xcomadrejax]

this has been a great lesson, thanks a lot! just subscribed!

[@mikererichaq3402]

Hay Eddie, that was a great lesson that turned some lights on for me. Were using a Looper to lay down the shuffle? I would like to see you do a lesson using a Looper and laying some tracks with it maybe with some other kinds of rhythms. Thanks, Mike Rericha

[@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

[@raysachs2397]

beautiful guitar

[@Introverted100]

Awesome lesson. Thanks

[@mickhanson7574]

Awesome Silvertone man!

[@SixtyEightCircles]

Excellent! Thanks.

[@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

[@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,

[@shahriaralmassi7086]

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

[@Dos_Perros]

Awesome Bro🎉🎉🎉🎉 Keep on Rockin🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸😁

[@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.

[@Coolbreeze72]

Super impressive ❤

[@shifty473]

Great stuff.

[@WadePluff]

Nice teaching style

[@drewdietz2115]

New to this channel, great lesson, thanks my man!!

[@georget7028]

Nice one.

[@Greenjagsurf]

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

[@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.

[@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!

[@oldguydave7355]

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

[@normanfawley7379]

Bloody good !

[@thomasryan5681]

Can you extend this lesson by connecting the scale boxes?

[@alfonsoalicea2781]

Can wait for the work day to end now.

[@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!

[@BMMPMI]

Imply!

[@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...

[@CarlosCuenta-Music]

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

[@drkrm]

Is that a Silvertone guitar?

[@OnwardAndEdward]

Yessir!

[@drkrm]

@@OnwardAndEdward I remember people buying “cheap” Silvertone guitars at Sears, but some of them weren’t so cheap and had that sound people wanted. Much sought after today.

[@axe-ologist]

stupid question - this is major right?

[@EmFine-d6o]

Yep

[@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...

[@Dos_Perros]

Awesome Bro🎉🎉🎉🎉 Keep on Rockin🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸😁
