A dim7 — Plectrum Banjo

A dim7 on CGBD: every charted voicing with its frets, its fingers, and audio on tap.

A dim7 chord diagram, starting at fret 1. Strings low to high: C open, G 2nd fret, B 4th fret, D 4th fret.

A dim7 stacks A – C – D# – F#. Each chart below places those tones on the Plectrum Banjo's CGBD strings and names the fret and finger holding each one — tap a chart to hear it.

The top three open strings are exactly the five-string's own, with a low C added underneath — so a five-string player already knows most of this neck and simply gains a bass note to reach for.

Then hand it over: a plectrum banjo lives or dies on the evenness of the stroke, so hold one voicing and play it as steady quarter notes before you let it move anywhere at all.
