💬 LESSON DESCRIPTION:
I recently finished up a series of "quick tip" lessons which left me wanting to go a little deeper.
For this week's lesson I've created the ultimate guide to diminished chords.
There are seven sections in this complete diminished chords tutorial:
1. Diminished chords defined
2. The three diminished chord shapes to know
3. Diminished chord inversions and their symmetrical chord structure
4. Resolving any direction with diminished chords
5. Chromatic diminished passing chords
6. Modulating keys with diminished chords
7. How I use diminished chords with improvising
Throughout all of that I share examples from some of my favorite songs that use diminished chords, and I provide clear exercises that you can practice.
If you're interested in how to use diminished chords, or in any of the topics from the outline above, then I think you'll love this epic lesson :)
I hope you enjoyed this lesson about how to use diminished chords on the guitar and found it beneficial. Let me know what you thought in the comments.
Thanks! :)
