What is a Diminished 7th Chord? â Part 1 A diminished 7th chord is built on minor thirds, so it’s one half step bigger than a whole step (a step and a half, or 3 half-steps). Just as there is only one Chromatic scale and two Whole Tone scales, there are only three possible diminished 7th chords. After that they are all just inversions – starting on different notes of the same chord. When you build a diminished 7th chord you start with a note and count 3 half-steps to each successive note.
