A while back Mike Battaglia posted this scale in 17 ET on the tuning list (I believe) and asked for someone to try it.

What I did was use small post-it dots to “map” the scale on my 17 ET electric guitar as seen in this photo. (The colors mean *nothing*)

And using my loop station I laid down a soft jazz rhythm track and then played some leads over it. Of course there are mistakes but the scale is used >95% of the time (I’m guessing).
