I’m currently trying to get the hang of electronics and sound production and I come acrosse “impedance issues” from time to time… For instance, “a preamplifier might load the microphone with low impedance, forcing the microphone to work harder and so change its tone quality” or a contact mike having a low amount of bass because its impedance doesn’t suit the amplifier…
Can anyone help me?

It essentially means “resistance,” in the electrical engineering sense ot the word. It has to do with how electricity flows through the circuit. They’re designed to have a certain amount of resistance to make the circuits work correctly. I don’t understand the text you quoted entirely but it seems like the preamplifier might have a different design resistance than the other parts and therefore mess with the circuitry?
