This method is great for people who want to play and record music quietly through their headphones. You can find them for less than $10 on Amazon. If you want you to use a standard pair of headphones that use a 3.5mm, or 1/8”, cable, you’ll need to purchase an adapter. One thing to mention is that the headphone outputs on guitar amps almost always require a 1/4” cable. You’ll be ready to play just like you normally would. Simply plug in your headphones and you should be good to go. Nowadays, most guitar amplifiers have a dedicated headphone output jack. This is the most obvious way to play your electric guitar through headphones.
