One tack: take a trashy guitar and move the bridge to a different spot. You'll get a (not necessarily close to equal) division of the octave with ~10-15 notes. [[http://launch.groups.yahoo.com/group/tuning/message/24|Dan Stearns]] has done this, and so has [[http://www.elvenminstrel.com/music/tuning/equal/13equal/13tet.htm|David Finnamore]], and more recently //[[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dEUtfiwF6GM|Jason Conklin]]//!

Chris Vaisvil's [[http://chrisvaisvil.com/?p=779|cheap, quick and dirty temporary guitar frets]] - a great way to try new tunings.

===Even quicker: open tunings===

An even simpler idea, without a modification of the guitar being necessary, are open tunings. See [[http://launch.groups.yahoo.com/group/MakeMicroMusic/message/27693|this thread on the Yahoo MakeMicroMusic list]] and
