Hello,
I made little research on component usage in guitar pedals based on all layouts in my DIY Layout gallery. Here's what I came up with


Hope it'll help next time you go shopping for larger quantities.

Wow amazingly helpful!  I feel that the 100k resistors are used a bit more, or equal to the 10k.  I also think that the 1m is only a bit above them.  I have a bit over 100 of each of the largest value resistors.  1Ms, 100Ks, and 10Ks.  Definately use them a lot.  Heres a great place to buy parts if none of you have seen it.  www.goldmine-elec-products.com .  They sell packs of 100 resistors for 3.50, and a bunch of other cheap things.

The 1M is probably the most used because so many of us use them as pull down resistors. So essentially, a 1M is used on a majority of the projects we do.
