Hello GMC'ers and welcome to Diminished 7 Workout - Part 2.

In this part we'll do some soloing over the same backing track that we've used for Part 1. No hard chops here, only alternate picking and 16th notes mostly, 80bpm is the tempo though. There's only one tiny difference compared to Part 1 and that's time duration of each key. You'll see what it is about as soon as you check this lesson. So we'll be using 4 harmonic minor scales here, Em, Gm, Bbm and C#m harmonic scales to nicely cover all those Dim7 chords in background.

VERY important thing here is to visualize all those harmonic minor scale in order to switch between them smoothly and throughout.

Let me know if you need any help, enjoy. :)
