If a future incarnation of this instrument added a foot pedal connection of adjustment of the clip positions for each pitch class in proper proportion to the string lengths, it could evolve into a fully on-the-fly adjustable pitch keyboard instrument.

The instrument design has two strings per note, with extra space between pairs of strings. This appears to leave room for construction of a future version having a modestly higher number of notes per octave (mostly likely 17 or 19, although with considerable additional engineering, perhaps even 22 notes per octave would be possible).
