Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I tried GuitarPlug with my electric guitar in 2005, when it was a Griffin product. It still looks exactly the same, even the package, so I don't expect it to be any different in 2009.
As every guitar player knows, the signal of an electric guitar is very weak and amplifying it also amplifies any static. If you want to record or just shape and amplify the guitar sound on your computer, like in GarageBand, your will find that the computer most likely produces a lot of static. Your guitar pick-ups and the cable to your computer become antennas for these distortion.
I hoped to minimize this by using this device to turn the weak, analog guitar signal into a digital signal, right at the very source, almost immediately when it is produced, right at the guitar. Bypassing the analog part of the cable.
However, using a GuitarPlug did not help me getting a cleaner signal from my guitar. On the contrary: it even made it a lot worse then compared to a simple mini-jack cable to the 'sound in' of my Mac. Obviously, I send it back.
The only reason for using this GuitarPlug, is when you don't have a 'sound in' port on your computer and you don't care about a clean signal.
