hi everybody,
so basically for my a2 project, i'm designing a small, portable guitar practice tool
which basically consists of 4 frets, with strings that you can strum and pluck.
i want it to be able to mimic the way a real guitar works, ie. the note that is played when the string is plucked is relative to what's happening on the neck.
i want the project to be completely systems based, because it eliminates the need for tuning.
heres a simple diagram:

do any of you have any suggestions or ideas as to how i could go about designing the systems for this idea? or recommend me specific picaxe components that might be suitabe? i realise i haven't articulated it very well, it's hard to explain in words, so please ask questions if i've lost you!
