After observing that the signal amplitudes were about the same
I used to plug a pickup into the tape inputs of my stereo when I
wanted to record from my acoustic.  It worked just fine, and no 
damage to the stereo occurred.
Some turntables put out a lower power signal-- if you need a 
preamp you have one of them.  You should have no problem plugging
it into a guitar amp.
