| Well, I took an basic electronics class way back in High School (around 1971) for the basics. And there were some magazines at the time that had some interesting stuff. Guitar electronics are generally really really simple and downright primitive. Amps are a whole 'nother thing however.
So, now I'd suggest that you look into a basic electronics class at a local community college, or adult education service. Failing that, maybe find a good book on basics. Richie Flieger has (or had) one that's pretty cool. It's "The Complete Guide to Guitar and Amp Maintenance", from Hal Leonard Publishing, ISBN is 0-7938-3490-9. Dan Erlewine's "Guitar Player Repair Guide" has some very very good stuff on guitar electronics trouble shooting, maintenance, and repair too, but nothing on amps.
The Flieger book goes into proper soldering techniques, and has some explanation of what's going on in the circuits. Add that to basic electronics you can get at school, or with a trip to a good library and you should be on your way!
Have fun, its something I used to enjoy (before the bifocals conspired against me being able to see wires well enough to solder neatly)....
