Diminished Responsibility

Unlock the Secrets of the Diminished Sound

Do you feel stuck every time a diminished chord or scale shows up in a tune?

  • Unsure why diminished chords sound so mysterious (or dissonant)?

  • Struggling to improvise without sounding like you’re just running random notes?

  • Confused about the difference between whole-half and half-whole diminished scales?

  • Lost when diminished chords pop up in standards like All the Things You Are or Body & Soul?

You’re not alone. Most guitarists learn the shape of the diminished scale, but not how to actually use it musically. The result? Your solos sound mechanical instead of expressive.

The Solution: Diminished Responsibility by Jamie Taylor

This 49-minute course is designed to strip away the confusion and give you a clear, practical framework for using diminished sounds in your playing.

Jamie Taylor — acclaimed jazz guitarist and educator — takes you step by step through:

  • How diminished 7th chords are built (and why there are only 3 to learn).

  • Turning chord tones into melodic gold by adding neighbor notes.

  • Real-world applications with melodies from jazz standards.

  • A guitarist-friendly fingering for the diminished scale (no more getting lost on the fretboard).

  • The connection between diminished harmony and the harmonic minor scale.

  • Why diminished isn’t as far from major or melodic minor as you think.

  • Grouping diminished 7ths into progressions so you can recognize, anticipate, and use them creatively.

This isn’t a “theory dump.” Every lesson is tied directly to musical examples you can plug into your playing right away.

What You’ll Be Able to Do After This Course

✅ Confidently navigate diminished chords in standards
✅ Craft improvised lines that sound logical — not random
✅ Use diminished harmony as a springboard for creative ideas
✅ Recognize the hidden connections between diminished, harmonic minor, and melodic minor
✅ Bring new colors and sophistication to your solos

Instead of avoiding diminished harmony, you’ll start to look forward to it.
