I dunno... General guitar gadgets is a pretty good site. Tons of articles to go with the schematics. BYOC seems to be mostly an online store. The forum looks useful though.

Tonepad are good if you want a premade PCB

Das Musikding are good for cheap kits (in Europe)

Home Wrecker are worth a look for Perfboard layouts etc.

byoc is nice for beginers because it is so basic all you have to do is put them together. but if you are already comfotable with electronices they may be a little boring.

Hi,
Has anyone come across a simple design for a chorus effect (I have looked at the Boss CE2 circuit and the Zombie circuits and both seem a bit complex) - On a guitar with two pick ups am I right in thinking that to get an onboard echo/chorus effect all I need is one pickup to go to the output and another to go via a delay circuit to the same output? This would then do away with alot of the circuits used in a chorus effects named above.
Regards,
David

Hi,
Thank you for the link Michael. I have just ordered a few echo/delay integrated chips off ebay to try out a few circuits (probably arrive after christmas now). It will probably end up costing more than a secondhand effects pedal but will be more fun to do. No doubt after a couple of months of frustration I'll be ordering one of the premade circuitboards (LOL).
Regards,
David

I`d say so too at a glance.
The general guitars site has an absolute wealth if information on it....
