Moreover it provides an Hi-Z instrument / Line Input that can be connected with a guitar or a bass via 6.35mm jack.

I use it to connect a guitar to my laptop with amplitube. It's plug & play, and it sounds perfect compared to first price products I have tried before. There is really the gain of the guitar, and no audible latency even at high quality. Metal box seems robust and well designed.
I've had my Focusrite for almost a year now and I have to say it really does the job. The Preamps are on another level and it's portability make this Audio Interface so versatile. I would recommend this for anyone starting out to the professional who is always on the go.
