Alternatively, the unmodified, symmetrical 2MOS scale 5 4 5 4 5 4 5 4 5 4 5 5 4 5 4 5 4 5 4 5 4 5 could be used instead. This scale is very similar to the modified version except that it lacks dog tritones; every 6th<span style="vertical-align: sub;">10 </span>is exactly 600 cents. Because it repeats every half-octave, this scale could be used to construct straight-fretted guitars as long as they [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Augmented-fourths_tuning are tuned in tritones]. This makes guitar construction much easier compared to other non-equally-tempered scales. The MODMOS would allow ''almost'' all the frets to be straight if the tritones tuning is used; only every eleventh fret would need to be curved. While the 2MOS is simpler, the MODMOS very closely approximates the [[Indian]] sruti system.

Other, "gentle" alternatives to 22edo for pajara include [[78edo|78ddd]] and [[56edo|56d]]. The resulting 22-note scales have large and small steps in ratios of 4:3 or 3:2, respectively.

The resulting 22-note scales have large and small steps in ratios of 4:3 or 3:2, respectively, and the rest of the spectrum of 22&[[34edo|34d]] temperaments is also usable.

The resulting 22-note scales have large and small steps in ratios of 4:1 or 3:1, respectively, and the rest of the spectrum of 12&[[34edo|34d]] temperaments up to 58d is also usable.
