You'd be great to jam with. So basically are you kinda playing 12tet but adding in a few 17tet notes in there for a little more zest? perhaps i should study up first
@iluvvsmp2 well to oversimplify, he's playing scales that existed in 12-et (diatonic, chromatic), but with the notes sort of stretched in the sharper and flatter direction, and then the new spaces are filled in with new notes that he may or may not use.
@kratanuva725 i think the perfect fifth will be in the place where a minor sixth would be, so thinking in a 12 notes guitar it would be 4 whole tones between the tonic and the fifth, and not 3,5
I definitely dig 17-edo, the thirds are stretched just enough to be really cool but not cringe-inducing, which I often find to be the case a little further away from 12-edo in the syntonic temperament, like in 22-edo.
@JLMoriart personally I find the minor third (so the major sixths too) pretty off in 12-edo. I found out about this major discrepency by merely experimenting with a justly tuned scale where Eb = 6/5 of C and A = 5/3 or C. The main issue about minor harmony is that the harmonics responsible for it are barely audible (5th and 6th, or 3rd in some cases...), so there's no way the consonnance between them is valued with minor thirds flat by 15.69cents...

Do you know how to calculate the fret distances for 17-tet? I'm putting moveable frets on my fretless guitar.

That is awesome. IMO 17t guitar is way more interesting than 19t. It so much more vibrant for one; 19 has a heaviness to it.
