Not a regular bow, a small one (say 4 inches). I would do this:....<<
Maybe you haven't been following the posts too closely. We don't want to move
strings since the pitch can't be changed without a lot of other hardware. What
we want is the synthesizer to freely generate the pitches and a resonant
acoustic body to give it the character needed. Using a $9 transducer like LH
pointed out should hopefully be all that's needed besides a mic to record the
sound back into electronic form. If that fails, then that's where I stop
because I will have answered my question as to whether it can be done or not.
