🎸THE GUITAR I AM USING IN THIS VIDEO
Since you ask all the time, guys, I decided to let you know which guitar I am using in each video. Today I have been using my Eko Massimo Varini Signature. (THIS IS NOT A SPONSOR).

🎸ABOUT THIS GUITAR LESSON

There are seven chords in the major key, with one of them being the most "unused" chord of all time.

I am talking about the Diminished and Diminished 7th chord.

To be honest with you guys, I am not a massive fan of this chord! When played alone, the Diminished chord sounds tense, dark, and unresolved. However, if we think of it as a passing/bridge chord, it opens up a lot of new and exciting possibilities.

Now, what's a diminished chord? Or even better, what's a chord?
A chord is a combination of three notes — the root, third, and fifth.

When the third is major, and the fifth is perfect, the chord is major. This chord sounds happy and positive.
When the third is minor, and the fifth is perfect, the chord is minor. This chord sounds sad and melancholic.
When the third is minor, and the fifth is diminished, the chord is diminished.

Now, the big brother of the diminished chord is the Diminished 7th chord, which is played with the three notes of the diminished triad plus the diminished 7th. The diminished 7th adds even more tension to the chord.

In this video, I am going to show you how to play a chord progression with a bunch of Diminished chords so that you can get inspired and start using this chord a little bit more.

Enjoy this lesson.

🎸FAQs:
Are you a full-time YouTuber?
Yes, I am on YouTube as Marco Cirillo, and I promote my videos on my website BlitzGuitar.com. All the courses I post online are available on my Patreon page

How long have you been playing guitar?
I started playing guitar when I was 10 years old, so it has been more than 20 years. I have always loved fingerpicking guitar, so this is why all my tutorials focus on this topic.

Why are you on Patreon?
Patreon is great! It allows creators to make money doing what they love. On Patreon, I can share my guitar lessons with my Patrons and get paid for it. As a creator, I feel like Patreon really made a massive difference in the way I share my content :)

Do you do concerts?
I used to do a lot of gigs in the past. London is a great place to play music almost every day. When my YouTube channel started to grow, I decided to go all-in and try to help as many people as possible learning guitar. This goal takes all the time I have available, so I am not doing any gig or concert atm.
