Lastly, do you have a little desktop mixer? You can use one of those to do your pre-amp work for you with your guitar.




Most, if not all, of these desktop mixers that have 1/4" input jacks do NOT have the requisite high impedance 1 megohm or so input. They are usually down around the 10K "line" mark, although some are better than that, if you check the specs and it says the 1/4" input is about 100K ohms or higher, you may have a chance of using it with direct connect from magnetic guitar pickup without changing the real sound of the guitar too much.

The little ART tube mic preamp has a very nice instrument input on it and is transparent, tailor made for driving those plugins from soundcard.

But that little Bass amp should be able to do the job as well, just don't crank up the EQ knobs on it a lot and use your ears and common sense you should do okay.
