988edo provides excellent tuning for the 2, 3, 5, 11, 13, 19, 37, 43, 47, 53, 59th harmonics and a reasonable tuning for 23, 29, 31, 41st harmonics, making a strong higher-limit system. In lower limits, it is [[enfactored]] in the [[17-limit]], with the same tuning as 494edo, which is notable for being a zeta edo. If considered in the 19-limit, it provides a good correction for the 19th harmonic over 494edo. The comma basis for 988edo in the 19-limit is {1156/1155, 1275/1274, 1445/1444, 1716/1715, 2080/2079, 2431/2430, 4096/4095}.

An alternate mapping for 17 would be the 988g val, where it tempers out 2025/2023, 13013/13005, 15625/15606, 31213/31212. In addition, in the 988ccd val it is a tuning for [[quadritikleismic]] temperament in the 7-limit.
