We can use some generic guitar sound samples that will work nicely for our virtual guitar. \n\nHere's the plan:\n1. We'll set up the guitar strings visually.\n2. We'll use the following keys for each string:\n - 'Q' for the 1st string (high E)\n - 'W' for the 2nd string (B)\n - 'E' for the 3rd string (G)\n - 'R' for the 4th string (D)\n - 'T' for the 5th string (A)\n - 'Y' for the 6th string (low E)\n3. We'll add audio files for these sounds.\n\nYou can upload your guitar sound samples or use the following free sound URLs for a quick start:\n- High E: `https://www.soundjay.com/button/sounds/button-1.mp3`\n- B: `https://www.soundjay.com/button/sounds/button-2.mp3`\n- G: `https://www.soundjay.com/button/sounds/button-3.mp3`\n- D: `https://www.soundjay.com/button/sounds/button-4.mp3`\n- A: `https://www.soundjay.com/button/sounds/button-5.mp3`\n- Low E: `https://www.soundjay.com/button/sounds/button-6.mp3`\n\nYou can choose to upload your sounds directly, or use these links in your project.\n\nNext, I'll help you set up the code to draw the guitar strings and play the sounds when you press the keys. Let's start by updating the `script.js` file to include the string visuals and key press functionality. \n\nHere's how to set up the code:\n\n```javascript\n// script.js\nlet guitarSounds = [];\nconst keys = ['Q', 'W', 'E', 'R', 'T', 'Y'];\nconst soundUrls = [\n 'https://www.soundjay.com/button/sounds/button-1.mp3', // High E\n 'https://www.soundjay.com/button/sounds/button-2.mp3', // B\n 'https://www.soundjay.com/button/sounds/button-3.mp3', // G\n 'https://www.soundjay.com/button/sounds/button-4.mp3', // D\n 'https://www.soundjay.com/button/sounds/button-5.mp3', // A\n 'https://www.soundjay.com/button/sounds/button-6.mp3' // Low E\n];\n\nfunction preload() {\n // Load all guitar sounds\n for (let i = 0; i < soundUrls.length; i++) {\n guitarSounds[i] = loadSound(soundUrls[i]);\n }\n}\n\nfunction setup() {\n createCanvas(windowWidth, windowHeight);\n background(135, 206, 235); // Sky blue background\n drawStrings(); // Draw the guitar strings\n}\n\nfunction drawStrings() {\n stroke(0); // Set the stroke color to black\n for (let i = 0; i < 6; i++) {\n line(width / 2 - 150, height / 2 + i * 20, width / 2 + 150, height / 2 + i * 20); // Draw each string\n }\n}\n\nfunction keyPressed() {\n const index = keys.indexOf(key.toUpperCase()); // Get the index of the key pressed\n if (index !== -1) {\n guitarSounds[index].play(); // Play the corresponding sound\n }\n}\n```\n\n### How this works:\n- **Sound Loading**: The `preload` function loads the guitar sounds from the specified URLs.\n- **Drawing Strings**: The `drawStrings` function draws six lines representing the guitar strings.\n- **Key Press Handling**: The `keyPressed` function checks if the pressed key matches one of our defined keys and plays the corresponding sound if it does.\n\nPlease replace the existing `script.js` code with the new code provided.
