A theoretical exploration of 41-equal scales. The 5 categories are pentatonic, diatonic, semitonal, ~~chromatic~~ and microtonal.

A theoretical exploration of 41-equal scales. The 5 categories are pentatonic, diatonic, semitonal, trientonal (fretwise) and microtonal.

=== Brief History ===

The Kite guitar was invented in April 2019 by Kite Giedraitis. He was directly inspired by Matthew Autry's experiments with [[Skip-fretting|skip-frettings]]. Matthew explored large edos like 72 and 130, but never explored 41. Others had previously come close to the Kite guitar, but either didn't use 41-edo, or had unequally spaced frets. See Graham Breed's [[Magic Guitar]] (2013) and Mason Green's [[Devadoot]] guitar (2016).
