Diminished Chord Chart
This guitar chord chart has an example of a fully diminished chord. This is a seventh chord with a lowered third, fifth, and double lowered seventh. The formula of intervals makes this chord symmetrical, which means that the chord shape shown in the guitar chord chart can used as inversions based on any chord tone as the root note. The diminished chord shown in this chart can be used all over the fretboard to form the same chord because of its symmetry. When you learn this single diminished chord shape from this chart you learn a chord that can be used much more than a regular chord shape, so this is an easy way to expand your chord playing ability without having to study a lot of guitar chord charts. The diminished chord is a great sound to add to your playing.
