You can occasionally see guitarists' signal flows and stopbox arrays in interviews etc, but the truth is usually obscured by prestige, sponsorship concerns, and the logistics of touring.
I am currently bread-boarding two guitar pedals for myself, and there is great discussion on modulargrid.net on filtering.

It's amazing how much influence these interviews have. They have, in the past, directly led to surges in demand for, e.g. the Klon Centaur and variacs.
Hell, I've gone to shows for the sole purpose of hand-delivering the artist a replacement product.
