One way to play 58-edo on a 14.5-edo guitar is to tune each pair of adjacent strings 15\58 apart. That's about 310.3 cents, or 5.3 cents flat of 6:5.

Where the first primes intervals lie

In the folowing the strings are vertical and the frets are horizontal. 1 represents octave equivalents of the root, 3 represents octave equivalents of the 3rd harmonic (3:2, 3:1, 3:4, etc.), etc.

(Note that 58-edo is consistent in the 17-limit plus 29. That is to say, of the harmonics depicted below, the most interesting ones are probably the values less than or equal to 17, plus 29.)
