there is a program called goldwave, which is what I use. It seems to be the clearest that I've heard.

then you need to buy a connection from radio shack or where ever that makes your guitar cord end that size of a headphone jack in order to plug into your output of your computer. To obtain the clearest recording plug into your output, not the mic or earpiece.

check the back of your comp. It should have one.

Also, google Audacity. It's a free recording program thats really user friendly.
