Yep, that is what I was going to ask...Cause the neck one the violin is different than the one on the guitar, and strings are much more apart, so you can play them one at the time.While playing a guitar I think, that would be a problem.
Unless...Hmmmm...If you use some kind of tuning, wher, when you struck an open guitar, no fingers on fingerboard (hope you get what I mean), it would be a chord.Then you could use a slide when playing with a bow...Dunno how it would sound, though.
