Diminished Chords: 6 riffs in 1

There exists a unique family of chords that have the ability to invert themselves without changing the fingering of the chord. One such chord is the diminished chord. A single diminished chord is actually four chords in one. In Fig. 1, all chords in the measure are actually the same chord but each inversion has a different root note (or the same root note depending on how you look at it). Furthermore, all chords are the same distance apart from one another (3 frets).
This means that you can take one guitar riff and multiply it 6 times across the fretboard. This is a relatively common techinque in shred when you need to get from one side of the neck to the other without too much effort. Fig. 2 and Fig. 3 give some general ideas for how this could be acomplished. Fig. 3 in particular is a sweep pattern.
