It would seem to me that the accuracy would not be so hot since the resistance is so low. I would also think a guitar string might vary significantly from one to another.

Hmmm.. A guitar string has resisitance... I wonder... What if you had a CV circuit where the positive end was connected to a guitar string, and that guitar string was streched over a metal strip of the same length connected to the negative end... As you pressed the guitar string to make contact with the metal strip wouldn't the amount of resitance increase and decrease as you moved up a down the string... Would we be able to create a psuedo ribbon controller? Just thinking about Del Dettmars axe again...
