Well, you just bought a speaker cabinet, which is essentially what a monitor is; for our purposes "monitor" is a fancy word for "Speaker". in order for you to make it work for guitar you will undoubtably have to invest in an amp head, which is a guitar pre-amplifier and power amplifier combined. If possible I would try to return it simply because you will most likely spend signifigantly more money on an amp to drive it than you did on the monitor itself.
