Can I hook up a acoustic electric guitar up on GarageBand without using internal and external mics
 
Does the guitar have some kind of line out? If so, a 3.5mm to 6.35mm cable should work: http://www.google.co.uk/products?q=3.5mm+to+6.35mm+cable&hl=en&aq=f



A more descriptive and precise thread title will help cater to the right audience and get you more responses. (see rule #3 under How do I get help with a hardware or software problem)

Have you also taken a look at MRoogle, since that question may have been asked several times?
 
I think the built in input is line-level, so you would need a DI box to convert the signal coming from the guitar to line-level.

They are only about $30 for a cheap one.

Maybe check if your computers input is line-level before you go and get one.
