Hey guys, I'm wondering if someone can recommend a good resource for learning more about electronics.  I've done a number of small guitar/effect projects, and most of them have turned out pretty well.  But when something goes wrong, I realize that I don't have a good enough background to effectively troubleshoot.  I finally got a nice Fluke 111 meter for Christmas, and it's come in handy several times, but I still don't know how to fully utilize it as an aid in debugging my projects.  Is there a book, web site, etc that someone can recommend?  I wouldn't say I'm an absolute beginner, but my background is mostly in digital electronics, and it's a lot easier to troubleshoot when everything is either on or off.  Thanks.

If you CAN understand them...I'm still working on it !!!
 I know it's all there, I need to create a folder and print alot of it out so I can cross reference terms as I work my way through an article.
  I actually think of things by typing...I have 'some' of homework to do, this idea is sure to help myself.
  Get the math equations and terms next to the word math 'problem' and see if it makes more sense that way.
