lol, I have only found a little tikes one, it wouldn't really be suitable.

I did find this Guitar wizard would it be of any use to you, with a cheaper real guitar?

It says at the bottom that they will try and make one for anyone with any hand disabilities free of charge....

No problem, sorry couldn't help more. I'll keep an eye out. I am always looking for multi sensory toys and equipment for my niece, so look through a lot of catalogues.

ds was obsessed with the "music lady's" guitar so i got him a Bontempi 3/4 size regular acoustic that i attach to his tray and help him strum, sounds a bit shite tho so i'm sorely temted to get him an electric and mini amp so it'll give him more feedback....pardon the pun!

we got this www.amazon.co.uk/Power-Tour-77175-Gibson-Guitar/dp/B000OONQMQ for one of our boys a while back from TK Maxx if I remember rightly. You can play it as a toy - just strum randomly and it plays pre recorded tracks or you can learn to play by following the lights which come on - but it works fine as a toy and DS (ASD) has enjoyed playing it since age 2 in a its an electronic toy so therefore I like it sort of way. But my husband used to play guitar and he really likes it too - so it covers all options really.
