- on-screen stringed instrument for its main input metaphor."

- arrangements, and to help you learn about chords and music. Or you can use
- it to help you learn to play a real stringed instrument."

- just like a real instrument. You can play the strings all at once or strum
- them by dragging the mouse through the pale yellow rectangles."
-
- Displaytimed 15 "However, unlike a real instrument, you can change the
- number of frets, strings, and the tuning of the strings at will. Power
- Chords is great for experimentation!"

- markers on the fretboard with the mouse."
