Wow!! You're one of the best jazz guitar teachers, I've run across on RUclips. Gonna learn a ton from you. Plus, the lessons are very clear, concise, and useful. 👍🎩👍
I was using a lot of diminished scale stuff, then later was using more melodic minor/altered scale stuff, such that I couldn't quickly switch between them, but later I was trying a 4 notes per string alternated with a 3 notes per string fingering for the melodic minor, and realised if I did all 4 notes, or all 3 notes, on each string, no alternating, I could play a diminished scale or whole note scale, and because the fingerings overlapped I could also flip it back to melodic minor. Because the decision only needed to be made when changing string, I could do hybrid lines, flipping between melodic minor, diminished and wholetone scales. I still use other fingerings which fit better with other lines, but I like the uncommitted aspect of the 3&4 notes per string pattern for switching between the 3 scales. It's also a visually simple concept, so easy to remember.
I like your approach to sharing this.I found it easier to understand than other videos ive seen.It helps to show slowly first and start with the basics
this is I think first lesson that have made this scale clear to me and in a quite way intuitive . Also, it is nice noticing in your playing how much is really prasing and good right hand articulation a big thing to make something sound good. Great work man
So happy to hear that Aleksander! And now you just gave a great topic for another video, The super important subject of Articulation ! Thanks for being here. Stay in touch
man I love these sounds.. the one thing about classic Jazz though is making chaos feel orderly by resolution... often times I sort of wish there was just chaos with no resolution.. this is why I like weather report..
A really excellent and important lesson, Daniel. Thank you. It really pulls together a lot of my scraps of knowledge into a well-structured approach. Turning scales into creative solos is within reach - with a LOT of practice 😄
Yessssss! One critique. You should correct your accidentals if they change in the next bar... like if a note should be natural etc. Anyway, great lesson. I'm getting on it.
noticed tonight in this awesome lesson, that at 4:45 tab notes at 10-7-9 on 1st string were played 1/2 step lower i think at 9-6-7 (outside the scale actually). if I have it right. mystery chord is a beautiful Cma7 I think.
WOW.....just watched this video that you shared with me today. Thank you Daniel Weiss. Your Lessons are very good. I did LIKE your video and SUBSCRIBED to you channel. Be encouraged to keep posting your quality videos. Gordon Franks
Here's another scale that is really close to diminished. Look on the web for "Mike James Octatonic Altered Scale". There's full documentation plus a video.
Très interessant dans la manière de construire des phrases. Mais ne s’agit il pas de la gamme semi -diminuée que l’on joue sur un accord de dominante ?
I'm working on adding some jazz concepts into my blues playing and of course that study brings up the Diminished. There is one thing I've yet to understand: how do you what key you're playing in with the diminished scale? Thanks.
Daniel, I would be curious if you could remember what song or lick got you first interested in this scale? Great explanation and examples. The info about building a diminished major seventh arpeggio is a game changer.
Hey Jim, hmm I think it's holdworth and coltrane. It's hard for me say retrospectively, but I'll think of a couple of examples for you. Regarding Dim.maj yes ! it is a game changer ! I go deeper into these sounds on 🎸 Diminished Licks and Workouts: weissguitar.com/course-gdlnw/ check it out.
Humm🤔 So, is it Bdim, or Gdim, that resolves to Cmaj7. You have B diminish on your chart, but your example line is from G diminish. The line is not resolving to Cmaj7. Or, maybe I'm missing something. HELP PLZ!!😂🤗 P.s. I think I understand now. You're playing primarily a G altered scale, with an added B dim triad. I thought you were playing a G diminish scale, and it wasn't resolving to Cmaj7 according to my ear. Or maybe I'm wrong/confused. Lol 😆

WOW! This is called responsible handholding!!! Thank you.
Thank you so much for dropping me a line, Bharat! I'm glad you liked it
hello Daniel, I've been "at it" a long time, now it's like learning a whole new language since finding your teaching style.. Thanks a mil'.
Very happy to hear that tony :-) always invited to check out more cool stuff at weissguitar.com and stay in touch
Jimmy Herring and Scott Henderson literally kill with this scale
Definitely :) !
Great 5akw on the diminished scale. Quite inspirational. I would call that an em b6, I get that it's also a Cmaj7 third inversion minus the root.
Awesome! These lessons showing different concepts in key of C is gold.
Yes! Thanks for your comments Nick, very happy you enjoy the lessons.
I use this Dimished scale but i love what this is doing to my application of it! and the other places you are taking it. thank you
I like your approach to sharing this.I found it easier to understand than other videos ive seen.It helps to show slowly first and start with the basics

You’re a great player . Thanks for the lessons
🙏🏻 Thank you for listening
Awesome melodic intervalic shapes, thanks for sharing
Hi Lenn, I'm glad you liked it, thanks for the comment, more videos coming up!
Yessssss! One critique. You should correct your accidentals if they change in the next bar... like if a note should be natural etc. Anyway, great lesson. I'm getting on it.
assumed the accidentals intentionally reflected the actual key of the derived chords in play
So useful in jazz on tritone.
Very useful scale indeed - Thanks for being here Eric :)
Great Lesson!
Thanks Mark :)
This is 🔥 Thanks Daniel for this! Todah!!
It's my pleasure! Glad you're here Joshua :)
Incredible lesson and playing always Daniel 👍🎸 thanks so much brother
Thanks for watching, I'm glad you enjoyed it! I appreciate all the comments and support.
Great stuff, love the diminished b9 or dim scale, especially in Barry Harris progression.. The asking chord with open E and B string would be CM7add6.
noticed tonight in this awesome lesson, that at 4:45 tab notes at 10-7-9 on 1st string were played 1/2 step lower i think at 9-6-7 (outside the scale actually). if I have it right. mystery chord is a beautiful Cma7 I think.

Gracias! Por compartir,😛✅.
Gracias por el comentario, más próximamente, estad atentos. :)
Nice!
Thank You 🙋🏻♂️
Chord at 4:52. I reckon that's a Cmaj7/E
E-C-G-B-E ; I would say a C maj7 with E in the bass
yep :)
Très interessant dans la manière de construire des phrases. Mais ne s’agit il pas de la gamme semi -diminuée que l’on joue sur un accord de dominante ?
I live in this scale.
Thanks for being here :) just uploaded a new one I think you will enjoy. stay in touch
8:00 you need to swap the first two notes in the second measure
Thanks! 🙏
👏👏👏🚀🎸
Hello, you guys! Cheers
I'm working on adding some jazz concepts into my blues playing and of course that study brings up the Diminished. There is one thing I've yet to understand: how do you what key you're playing in with the diminished scale? Thanks.
Do you mention what chords you can use these over?
Hi :-) where ?
The most addictive scale is harmonic Major
Cmaj7/E
🍾 🥂 🎉
When the droning chord at 1:29 came up in the background, I thought something really bad is gonna happen soon
😂
Was that Venice Beach In the back ground?
TLV :)
C maj7
Exactly :) Thanks for tuning in - check out this video too: ruclips.net/video/GaTqXFECAlo/видео.html
What pick do you used my friend?
Badazz III 3.2
@@WeissGuitar Thanks
DiminishExplained🎸
Nice Ramon, Love that! Thanks for being here 🙋🏻♂️🎸
4:50 Am I late to the party? That chord looks like a Cmaj7 1st inversion in drop 3. Right?
Yes :)

It needs some context Mr. Weiss.
Thanks for tuning in :)
darkness to light. Tension to resolution
