Hi Mike,
If you're using a Low-z mike like an SM 57/58 and you want to use it with a 
guitar amp, what you want would be a matching line transformer for that, but 
if you were using a newer JT30/Hohner Blues Blaster which has an X:R 
connector, BUT are already high impedance, you DO NOT want a matching line 
transformer, but an adapter and on http://www.jt30.com, they have that 
there.
