One of the Ways I’ve Learned to Look at the Guitar — The Five Shapes of the Blues (Key of A)

Description: This is one of the ways I’ve learned to look at the guitar. It’s not about scales or patterns — it’s about where the blues truly lives on your instrument. Five shapes that connect the entire neck — and once you see them, you’ll understand the guitar like never before. In this video, I’m playing a slow blues in A7, and I play the entire song in one position before moving on. When the song ends, I start it over again — but this time in the next shape up the neck. I keep repeating that process through all five shapes of the blues, and then I start the shapes over again in a higher register, showing how the same language repeats across the neck. Each version of the song stays within its shape, but I’m connecting my lines and phrasing inside that space — showing how much feeling, story, and melody you can create without leaving the position. And remember — you have five open strings you can play in any position. Once you start hearing how those open notes tie into each shape, you’ll realize how alive the neck really is. The goal is to feel the blues in every position — to hear how each shape tells the same story in a slightly different voice. 🎶 Backing Track: Slow Texas Blues in A7 (with Joey on the B3) 🖊️ Written and performed by Dale Clark 🎸 Glendale Guitars — Built in Texas.

I play a slow Texas blues in A7, performing the entire song in one shape, then restarting the song in the next shape — all the way through all five. After I’ve gone through all five shapes, I start again in a higher register, repeating the same five shapes so you can hear how the language of the blues continues up the neck. Each shape gets its own full performance, and I keep my phrasing connected inside each one — showing how much expression and storytelling you can find without moving all over the fretboard. And don’t forget — those five open strings are always waiting to be used. They’ll connect your tone and make every position sing in its own way.
