Looking to learn about guitar pedal electronics

Hey Guys,

I'm new to these forums and was hoping I could find some suggestions on learning about guitar pedals. I am interested in more than a layman's description of basic effects and was hoping to begin learning more detail concerning internal components and technical detail. I have little knowledge of circuits, so if I need to start small and read some background on electronics and circuits I would be willing. Ultimately, I really just want to understand how different types of pedals work from a technical standpoint to better understand each individual pedals capabilities and what they can do to my guitar's sound. Thanks for any help!

+1 on the above. the site DIYStompboxes is also a good resource, and their forum is full of helpful folks. Freestompboxes is another good resource for info. Enjoy!
