Hard to get good free help these days isn't it? Especially when you don't thank people.

Re: finding schematics for guitar pedals?

Google, Google, Google! I have found tons of schematics by doing this. There's also a couple of forums for pedal building. I have found a lot of schematics at www.freeinfosociety.com also.

They're popular for guitar effects because they're easy to use.
