Hello. I'm learning to play the guitar and just tried hooking my electric guitar up to my Macbook with a .25" to 3.5mm adapter. As I was afraid, the levels of the guitar are way too low even with the levels cranked up.
From what I understand, a preamp may be my best bet to get some good recordings onto my computer. Would something like this ART Tube MP (

Any help would be MUCH appreciated.
