This page displays the The C Blues Scale - 5SR1 ( 5th String Root starting with the 1st Finger at Fret 3). The Blues Scale with Root C is spelled C-Eb-F-Gb-G-Bb-C. The following Guitar Fretboard Diagram displays the Notes using fingering 5SR1.

Fingering of the Scale at this position
Moving up 2 frets to the note D and apply the same fingering will give you a D Blues Scale. So, The Blues Scale - 5SR1 fingering may be applied to any note on the 5th string to get a Blues Scale with a new root.Due to its unique placement of tones, this Scale is quite flexible and can be applied over a surprising number of chords qualities. Nevertheless, I would advise using it judiciously or your solos will sound more like blues solos rather than jazz or jazz-blues solos.
Playing and hearing these scales over their respective chords in a rhythm track is great for developing your ear and your timing.
