Good Electronics reference books

What references do you guys go to?

Im basically a n00b when it comes to designing things. Repairing things is fairly easy for me and I have a very basic idea of what most components do. Got any good resources?

Guitar Electronics for Musicians by Donald Brosnac is a good one.

Well this site indyguitarist is making a book right now to modify your amps.

the all about circuits site is very good, i've been there before. other than that i don't have many sites to recomend, as i've got quite a few textbooks on the subject lying around now.

Well, the Brosnac book is specifically for guitar electronics and won't help you with amps. But, if you ever need help with pickups, switching, wiring and stuff...
