This four-top string grip contain the Diminished (_o_7) form with a net intervallic construction:

Flat 5th & Minor 3rd & Flat 5th.
The Rootless 7b9 form takes root from any y, but preference in defining voicing is heard in reference to chord progession. The nature of the Symmetrical scale is as the inverse of the Diminished scale, where that Roots pitch is a 1/2 step above.
F Diminished = E Symmetrical
The Nut position voicing is repeated an Octave higherat the 12th Fret.
