'''Turkish Major''' is a tempered max-variety 3 scale that is equivalent to a [[4L 3s|smitonic]] scale with one of its small steps diminished. This makes a Neapolitan Major scale which does not temper out 36/35. Not tempering 36/35 is actually quite useful, because it's the difference between 4:5:6 and 6:7:9 triads. This is important in a neutral third tone system because the smoothest neutral chord with a perfect fifth is 6:7:9:11. As a result,  results of tempering out [[81/80]] or [[64/63]] are not as bad, because the scale must detemper one if it tempers out the other. Strangely, the detempering of 36/35 is not evident due to the odd intervalic nature of the Turkish Major scale. Smitonic in a sense does the opposite of what Neapolitan Major does in common practice, exaggerating 36/35 to the point that 4:5:6 and 6:7:9 triads no longer a recognizable 3/2, and the small step of Turkish Major becomes equal to the medium steps.
