This might not help much, but it might help some; there is this project
called Frets On Fire, an open source (python) Guitar Hero clone, can accept
input from a bunch of different "guitar" controllers, and you might be able
to work those into your abstract input.
They list the types of controllers supported here:

And the project page is here:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/fretsonfire/

AbstractInput sounds *very* useful, I'd use it myself.  Probably to play
QWERTY keyboard standing up like a guitar.
