Guitar to computer USB link

Hi,
I would like to use Garage Band on my iMac to record me playing music from my Electro acoustic guitar. What is the best solution for this? Would something like the Behringer Guitar Link UCG102 work or is this for Electric guitars only?

Cheers,
Hamish

It should work with an electro acoustic aswell, it just may not be as clear.

Line 6 Toneports are the Daddy's of the Guitar to USB market and I'm pretty sure they work with Macs.

The Toneport isn't made any more, it's now called the Pod Studio and it's without doubt the best one to go for.

- name change but exactly the same gear.
I have the Toneport KB37 - I mean Pod Studio 37 and it's a lovely bit of kit http://line6.com/podstudiokb37/

Yeah, it is actually exactly the same.

They're absolutely unbeatable in my opinion.
