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 on how to use diminished chords. 
There are seven sections in this diminished chords guitar lesson:
1) Diminished Defined
2) The three chord shapes to know
3) Inversions and the symmetrical chord structure
4) Resolving any direction
5) Chromatic passing chords
6) Modulating keys
7) How I use diminished chords with improvising
Throughout all of that I share examples from some of my favorite songs and provide clear exercises that you can practice.
If you’re interested in diminished chords, or in any of the topics from the outline above, then I think you’ll love this epic lesson 🙂 
Thanks for watching!
I hope you have a great rest of your week and that you get some fun guitar time in 🙂

– Jared
