Start with this.
http://arts.ucsc.edu/EMS/Music/tech_background/schematics/ReadSchem.html

Schematics are basically just diagrams showing how the electronic parts are hooked together, using symbols for each type of part, and alphanumeric identifiers by each one, so you know what the value of each part is, either next to the part or from a separate parts list.

being able to read a schematic without knowing how the components actually work wont help you very much.

Jack Darrs Guitar Amplifier Handbook

there used to be a downloadable version for free but the link does not work anymore.

check this link and pm matty boy if he can send you the file.
I have the hardcopy.

[michaelq]

also..if you go here http://arts.ucsc.edu/EMS/Music/courses/126.html which is a link off of that first schematic crazydoc posted... its actually the class lecture notes for a class called technology of the modern music studio and its helping me out quite a bit in general, so i'd advise you guys to check it out and see if you cant gain something from it..or you all may know it all already, but just check it out.

I'm uploading it now. Let me know when you download it, as I'm using a server at work for this. I'll take it down after you get it.
