thomas,

I'm not sure what you're trying ot get at with this thread, but I can assure you that you can NEVER talk abot enough theory.  I myself undertsand quite a bit of it, but you can never be exposed to too much knowledge.

Lay some stuff on the table and if people want to take it then they'll take it.  I know i'll be eating it up like a malnutritioned lion that's just been left in  a goat petting zoo :o

First Thommas i'd like to thank you for your effort that you're putting into your posts.  It really is appreciated.  Now with that being said I'm finding some of yur post pretty hard to understand. 

I almost feel like in the above quoted post that you're saying that when a dim 7th is being played we should alternate between the flat 3rd and the double flatted seventh.

DIMINISHED 7TH FOUR STRING FORM

KEY OF A SECOND INVERSION

The second inversion of an A diminshed chord is C, E, Gb

It took me a minute to understand what you where saying...but I think I got it now.  That is a nice pattern to practice if I'm understanding it right.

However, the pattern my not sound that great in the key of A with a flattened 5th.

I don't think that your 7ths need to be double flatted and if you are flattening the 3rd then you are probably using A minor, right?  So your notes would be...
A, B, C, D, E, F, G (natural minor of C) the 7th is already flat.

for a diminished 7th cord, the 7th is Double flatted, so it does need to be flatted again.

You are right on with that.  I was debating it based on the key.
