If you ever wanted to play two guitars at the same time or play violin while playing a country song… here is Bandit. It will play chords for you. The Bandit was created by Philip Wickenden.
Bandit, more or less, works like this: with the left foot you can choose one of the 10 chords available and with the right foot you can move a pedal, that has a flywheel, that strums the guitar at your desired rhythm (alternatively playing top 2 string and the bottom 4 strings).
You can try to find Philip (in England) to see it in action or see the video. Or you can try to build your own Bandit if you want to be a one-man orchestra.
I cant view the video or seem to find any pictures of the device, but i’m very interested in learning more. I was in a motorbike crash 2 years ago, and now only have the use of 1 arm (tbpi injury). I have been searching for a way to play the guitar again, and need some help to do it!
Can I get some info on it all please??
I’m sorry but it looks like youtube has deleted the video and I can’t find it anywhere.
