This is a deep lesson, not for the faint of heart. To sweeten the burden of all this knowledge I’ve made a silly intro that I hope you enjoy. If I get demonetized, so be it, I think its worth it cause its still cracking me up and I’ve watched in a hundred times already.
Long story short - the diatonic seven chord is diminished, everyone knows that. But what does that actually mean, and is it even helpful to think of viiº , the simple triad, as its own independent chord? This video demonstrates several of its relationships with other chords, in particular the dominant chord V7 and its variations. The goal of this lesson is to have more options, possibilities, and techniques to working with a viiº chord.

I'm not saying it's diminished, but it's diminished.

For those of you wondering, yes, I’m working on the Mixolydian video! I think the wait will be worth it - In the meantime, big thank you to the folks at KLOS guitars for hooking me up with this unique and nearly indestructible acoustic guitar. I told them I don’t do ads in my videos and they sent it to me anyway :) Check out the link in the description if you’re interested!

HEY !!! Everyone...lets all become Patrons and give him some well deserved compensation. He's worked so hard for us, lets give back.

This is exactly what I’ve been looking for. I love dissonance and this time around playing and writing being able to identify that was a big deal. But utilizing it in a “functional manor” is also an eye opener. THANK YOU!

Writing a song entirely consisting of dim7 chords and screaming is my favorite activity

The vii° isn't as rare as you think. A lot of J-pop and K-pop songs use vii° as essentially as a ii° of vi, as in vii°-V/vi-vi. Another case is the circle of fifths progression, which goes IV-vii°-iii-vi-ii-V-I, my personal favorite progression of all time.

Diminished chords are awesome in passing. In the bridge of my current song, I'm in the key of B-flat. At one point, I go: B-flat, B°, C. It's a pretty neat transition. The first two chords in that 3-chord series play for just a quarter of a beat each in a 4/4 time signature. In instances like this, the diminished chord is amazing. :)

One big counterexample I’d like to mention is when vii° is functioning more like the ii° of the minor ii°-V-i for the relative minor (so in C you have: B°-E-Am). Sounds nitpicky but it’s a change I’m pretty fond of and it shows up fairly often (“Fly Me To The Moon” being a well-known song that uses it), and in a lot of cases (like FMTTM), I just think of it as “vii°” since the “modulation” to the relative minor is so quick (the III7 is the only actual “outside” chord and is there for less than a measure). At the very least, the B° is definitely not interchangeable with G7 in this case, since the chords are functionally completely different in this context.

That hilarious parody intro got a thumbs-up from me, before you even got into the theory lesson! Jake, you have such a wonderful way of describing the quality of harmony. I love the way you presented this, and your graphics are perfection!

That's all well and cool Jake, but when is the 'how to make 80s synthpop' video coming lol? "Come Back Home" is an absolute masterpiece and im sure everyone would like to see how it came about. Anyway, love your work. Thank you so much for everything that you do, you've inspired to me to learn the guitar (even though I'm a complete beginner) keep up the good work!!

Such a great teacher. Love your stuff, Jake! Thanks for being excellent!

If you follow a full circle progression: I-IV-vii dim-iii-vi-ii-V-I you will see a basic vii dim followed by a iii chord which in that context is tonic functioning. And is how it is described as functioning outside of fully dim 7th form. To prepare and resolve the tritone dissonance. Love the videos Jake. Keep them coming!
