A guitar preamp is basically a guitar amplifier, but without the power amplifier section that drives the speaker. A typical guitar amplifier consists of two components: the preamp and the power amp. The preamp is responsible for generating most of the characteristics of the guitar tone. The power amp receives the output signal from the preamp, then raises it's level enough to drive a speaker so the guitar becomes audible.
Physically, a guitar preamp can be an independent rack-mountable unit, a digital device (such as a Line6 POD), a floor pedal, or even circuitry inside the guitar itself.

Focusrite 4i4 4th Generation Scarlett Line inserts on the rear (3-4) 100% bypass the preamps?
Yes, on the Focusrite Scarlett 4i4 4th Generation audio interface, the line inputs on the rear (inputs 3 and 4) are typically designed to bypass the preamps. This means that when you connect a device to these inputs, the signal will go directly into your recording software without passing through the built-in preamplifiers. This is useful when you have external preamps or devices that you want to use instead of the Scarlett's preamps for those inputs. It allows you to have more control over your audio signal chain.
