Touch guitar

Okay kiddo, a touch guitar is a really cool instrument that you can play without actually strumming it. Instead of using a regular guitar pick, you use your fingers to touch the strings and make different notes and sounds.

The touch guitar is made up of a long piece of wood that has strings stretched across it. It's kind of like a big rectangle with buttons on the side. You can press down on the strings with your fingers to make different notes, and there are special sensors in the guitar that recognize the different touches.

When you touch the strings, the guitar sends signals to a computer that makes the sounds come out of speakers. It's like magic!

Playing a touch guitar takes a lot of practice, because you have to learn how to use your fingers to make the right sounds. But once you get the hang of it, you can make all kinds of cool music and sounds that people will love to listen to.

So if you're interested in making music in a unique and interesting way, a touch guitar might be just the instrument for you!
