To see the differences between a guitar and the gTar, start with what's missing. There are no pickups under the strings to capture the notes played, as in your dad's Les Paul. Instead, gTar creates signals via MIDI that your iPhone—which plugs into the face of the gTar—translates in actual sound. As such, the gTar doesn't have to sound like anything. At the push of a button a player chooses a clean electric guitar sound, distortion, delay, acoustic guitar, and other tones.
Activate gTar and the other cool component comes to life: its psychedelic fretboard, a grid of LEDs that illuminates to show the player what notes to play. With your iPhone 4, 4S, or 5 plugged into the instrument's face, launch the gTar app and choose one of the songs or scales from the growing library. Then start shredding.
