The PracticeMaster

A transparent board to be placed between the strings and the neck of the guitar, which helps the player practice the guitar/ learn songs

How does it work? Exactly like guitar hero – but for real!

For those who don’t know: “guitar hero” is a game for game consoles such as Sony-Play-Station and Wii, which allows the user to play a toy guitar, without really knowing how to play a real one.

When the player wants to play a song, colorful blinking lights appear on the board, beneath the strings to guide the player where and when to play.

Visual illustration

For every string there will be a designated color, allowing the user to easily distinguish between the strings.

The board will be divided into two sets of lights: one for the hand which is placed on the

guitar’s neck (usually the left hand) and one for the hand which plays the

strings (usually the right hand)
