Diminished 7th
Guitar Chords
The root of the diminished 7th chord could be any of the
notes. The chord is symmetrical, which means that if you
where to move this chord up 3 frets, it would still be the
same 4 notes, just in a different order. The diminished
7th chord has a lot of different uses. Of course the most
novel use is to play the chord and then move up 3 frets
and play the chord again. Keep doing this until you run
out of frets. Did you just have a cartoon flash back? Another
common use is as a passing chord between two chords which
area are a whole step apart.
The o means diminished.
