[DM-MUG] USB adapter for guitar

[Matt Stanton]

The iMic says it supports microphones and line-level inputs with a 
selector switch, so it should work fine if you have a 1/8th male stereo 
to 1/4 female mono adapter (assuming the guitar cord is mono).  If you 
don't, then RadioShack used to carry those sorts of adapters, and I'm 
sure you could find one at any number of guitar shops, too.
