Any fretless instrument (bass, gtr, violin, viola, cello) is microtonal. Trombones as well.
Yup, didn't even think about that when I was writing. Of course, we don't typically think of them as microtonal since we're heavily invested in 12TET in the west, and typically use those instruments in a way consistent with 12TET music.
And yet they’re never used like that, so what’s your point?
Not true. Jacob Collier, David Fiuczynski, Matthew Garrison, and others use microtonal notes with their guitars.
Sam Nanton (Duke Ellington) also used a lot of microtones in his trombone solos.
It does happen...just not very often.
Also human voice.
Yep. Jacob Collier is all over those notes in his singing.
