At risk of seeming to be a dreadful bore I have used the Behringer PB100 for computer recording and found it to be most useful and versatile. It will match many microphone and musical instrument low level signals, including piezo guitar pick up, to the line input on a personal computer system unit. You can read my review at URL:

p.s. My previous post may be useful:
Computer Recording
This is a basic method and explanation. Ensure all audio settings are set low to avoid overload of delicate equipment and speakers. Using a Windows 98 enabled Personal Computer or PC I recorded my guitar as a WAV file and then converted it into a MP3 file for upload to the internet using free http://www.musicmatch.com software. Most guitars whether electric or electro-acoustic use a standard ? inch or 6?8 mm jack plug which requires connection to shielded audio cable. At the other end you will probably require a 3?5 mm stereo plug wired for a mono connection which will be inserted into the line or microphone socket on the rear panel of the PC unit. With the speakers on you should be able to hear your guitar amplified through the PC. If not, ensure that relevant audio pathways are not muted by clicking once on the speaker symbol on the task bar to reveal volume setting and click twice to reveal line in channel settings. Go: START > ALL PROGRAMS > ACCESSORIES > ENTERTAINMENT > SOUND RECORDER to record the WAV file and then use the free MusicMatch download to convert to MP3 and reduce file size as required. I use the 16 kbps setting when converting to minimise file size and ensure a fast loading for the listener although this does reduce sound quality. It may be possible to buy the lead ready made or use an adaptor with a regular guitar lead. A Cathode Ray Tube or CRT monitor may cause audio interference via the pickup of an electric guitar. Experiment with playing position to reduce hum.

I most certainly do remember Making Music. In March 1999 issue 156 they reviewed my BLANK MANUSCRIPT PAPER as an “Interesting Internet site” at URL:
http://www.houlston.freeserve.co.uk/5.htm
“It’s easy – just log and press print.”
I was most grateful for their comments because not only did I get many visits to the site and customers for my guitar tutoring but it encouraged me to continue learning HTML skills and development of the:
“Free guitar tips + tabs” web site at URL:
http://www.houlston.freeserve.co.uk/
I do miss Making Music magazine. It was a sad loss to UK musicians when it folded.

It would appear that the AE28 guitar whilst popular in USA is being withdrawn from the UK market. This is posssibly due to the conservative taste of most guitarists in UK where the unconventional AE28 styling may be admired but not often purchased. Buy now before they become a sought after collectors’ item!?;) Read my full review via this URL:

Experiment with playing position to reduce hum. You may hear my work via http://clix.to/tips%5B/quote%5DSubsequent to my words of 17 December 2005 I have found the Behringer PB100 Pre Amp Booster most useful for computer recording of piezo equipped electro-acoustic guitar that does not have an onboard pre amp, electric guitar and bass, matching low impedance microphone to high impedance input and for general enhancement of tone quality which you can hear at my Mental Health Survival Guide web site regarding demo MP3 of the group I presently play in “Lithium” URL: http://www.houlston.freeserve.co.uk/mental.htm
The Behringer PB100 also works as a heaphone amplifier. It does however make an audio “squelch” when input jack is connected so ensure computer or amplifier gain is set low to prevent damage to circuitry and/or speakers. Enjoy your music.
