2. You will most likely get worse sound quality than if you had used an amplifier.
3. Almost all guitar amplifiers are monaural, so you will lose the right channel altogether.
4. MP3 players have an amplifier built in, making their output voltage higher than a guitar's pick-ups. This voltage can cause damage to the preamplifier of your guitar amp.
