Not a problem. Are you playing acoustic or electric?
Something else to consider is getting a decent mic, the recordings will only be as good as what they are captured on.

If you want a great jack of all trades mic that you can use for an acoustic guitar or even micing up a guitar amp, you could get something like the Shure SM57.

Then there's always nice recording/condenser mic's which can range from budget friendly to extraordinarily expensive -- sounds like you've been investigating that.

Garageband has a pretty serviceable suite of amp models built in which you could use and record with by just plugging in direct through your interface.

Welcome to the endless (and expensive) rabbit hole of music/recording gear.
