A jack-to-minijack plug would work, but most instruments need a PreAmp
to boost the volume to reasonable levels. Though with a jack-to-minijack
you could hook up an amp to the mac pretty easily, but you will lose
instant monitoring if your amp doesn't have more than one output. Aside
from that, setting it to the right volume can be done, but needs more
time and tweeking.
Most recording software has monitoring built-in, but depending on the
processor's speed you may get a delay, which is really annoying. For
that reason I prefer direct monitoring through hardware.
I use jack-to-minijack and minijack-to-jack plugs constantly for
headphones and that works really well.
