Let's assemble the Distortion Guitar Effects

For those of you who've played electric guitar, would have been familiar with the name of guitar effects. Guitar effect is an electronic device that functions to change the sound of the guitar itself is so different from the original voice. Usually to clarify the original sound or create different sound distortion / noisy as in rock music.

So the guitar effect serves to change the original sound of the guitar that just jreng-jreng-jreng be varying according to our tastes. Distortion is the kind of effects that usually has a noise that sound based on the sound of overdriven tube amplifier. Here is presented a circuit schematic of guitar effects. This circuit can be packaged in a small box.
