About Eb diminished

Eb diminished is built from three notes: Eb (root), Gb (minor third) and Bbb (diminished fifth). Its interval formula is 1 – b3 – b5. It is a diminished chord: it stacks two minor thirds, sounds tense and unstable, and usually resolves to another chord.

Eb diminished has no standard open shape in the CAGED system, so its 11 voicings are sorted only by difficulty and position on the neck. Another way to write Eb diminished is D# diminished (the same piano key, with a different name). Eb diminished is the usual choice.
