Player GuitarCritical Design Review Lucas Gilbride Rick Denney Dan Forrester Randy Hood Introduction Our project is a device that plays downloaded music in MIDI format on an acoustic guitar. The design will use stepper motors attached to guitar picks to pluck the strings and will use solenoids to depress the strings so that different notes can be strummed.
