I think this will be fantastically difficult to sound decent, unless
you want a very simple and limited instrument. The range of different
strokes with the bow is extensive, and the complex combination of
speed /angle / force / distance from bridge would be irreproducibile.
Have you tried playing a bowed instrument? I think working out how to
do it without some bow technique knowledge would be hard. I suspect
either a real cello / electric cello or getting an EUB would be a far
superior option. If you want to make that wacky have effects on the
electric cello with some stomp boxes.
