Hey Fellow Stompboxers,I thought I would contribute a link for a download for this classic tome from Craig Anderton,which I just found,I've been after this one for a while...
It is in PDF form,so you don't need to unzip it first,if you click on the free download link and it says something like "Your last download was 15 minutes ago",just wait and you will be able to download it a bit later...
File size is 44.8Mb

Got a special place in my heart for this book. I had a first edition borrowed from a friend as I was just getting going with this hobby/obsession.

Yeah, it's a great read, the first time I discovered it was in the Charles Darwin University Library, here in Darwin NT Australia, I was casually looking for books on Electronics and came across it, so I borrowed it from the Library, this was back in 1994 and 1995 when I was doing a course in Basic Electronics at the Uni, brings back fond memories of building Craig Anderton's Tube Sound Fuzz, might even build it again one day....

Hi everyone. I've also put this up (a zipped .pdf) at Rapidshare. It's on a premium account, so will stay available.

I don't supposed anybody has MP3s of the included floppy record, do they? I lost my sample-tracks record from my hard-copy years ago.

Heh, heh... I gave up on finding mine several moves ago. It used to have a permanent home gathering dust under my turntable.
