One notable property of 53EDO is that it offers good approximations for both pure and pythagorean major thirds.

The perfect fifth is almost perfectly equal to the just interval 3/2, with only a 0.07 cent difference! 53EDO can be considered an extended Pythagorean tuning using the notes: 0, 4, 9, 13, 18, 22, 26/27, 31, 35, 40, 44, 49, 53. The thirds are close to just as well, and therefore 5-limit tuning can closely be approximated using the ~~notes: 0, __5__, 9, __14__, __17__, 22, 26~~/27~~, 31, __36__, __39__, 44, __48__, 53~~. Because 1 degree is very close to both the [[Syntonic Comma|Syntonic]] and [[Pythagorean comma|Pythagorean commas]], 53EDO is very flexible and wolf intervals can be avoided simply by using the note above or below the note in the scale rather than retuning the note in the scale.
