Do you have a headphone jack on your amp? If you do, get a 1/4 jack to 1/8 jack. Plug from headphones to you line in on your soundcard.
yeah, i have normal instrument cable size plug-in, and it says headphones on top... thats all i know, as i said... kinda new at this. So would i need a special cord that has a headphone on one side, and a normal instrument cable on the other side.
You can actually get one from Radio Shack. Might cost around $8 dollars or so. 1/4 in to 1/8 in(minijack).
so one sides a normal instrument size jack and one side is a headphone jack?
(again sorry, if my stupidity is frustrating)

thanks, i think I'm starting to get it.
the only program i have for recording of songs is Audacity, because its free haha. so do you know anything about Audacity and how it will react to an instrument being plugged in?

No I really don't know anything about that program. I think you will just have to experiment with that. Not really sure what program to use.
