Well I am Computer Science Engineering and here in India this stuff is all over our high school/college level books. What I meant by knowing the circuits and stuff is that I know, for example, what OP AMPs are and how they work. Not necessarily how it would influence the sound signal but how it would influence an electrical input signal, in general. I said theoretical basics and not working knowledge (practical vs theory conflict).
And, I think where I have made a big mistake here is that I would like to stress that I plan to use
only a breadboard to test my circuits (setting my ckt on it and using it as stripped down fx unit. Don't know if it actually can be done. Looking at the schematics for bona fide pedals such as, say, the Boss CE-5 I saw nothing that couldn't be done on a (large enough) breadboard.). I couldn't just plug in an audio signal into a breadboard, if you know what I mean. Again I couldn't take an electrical output from the breadboard and put it into an amp.
Again, as I'm from India I can't expect to have anything for DIY help shipped in here. I'll just have to make do with the simplest stuff.
Bottom line (question). Guitar-->Breadboard-->amplification. How?
. Care to tell me of any site that will help me out with the absolute basics on the practical aspect?
