I see, so for it to be a short, the diode section (where ground is) and the negative of the cap would have to be connected to the same thing. Yes, that's what my concern was since if it was a short, none of the signal from the guitar would be clipped. Thank you for the help, guys.

Between the 220uF capacitor and the dpdt switch. Isn't that a short? Or am I just a dumbass and forgetting something? Probably the later, heheh.
