I'm a student who is trying to build a wah pedal for a guitar. I came across this diagram for how to wire the circuit (from this site) :
Circuit diagram for wah pedal



Within the diagram, I am not sure what the following symbol means:
Mystery symbol



This variant of the symbol also appears in the diagram and I am not sure what to make of it either:Mystery symbol variant



I'd much appreciate if anyone could explain these symbols to me as the only place I have been able to find these online was on this very circuit diagram and no context is provided as to their meaning.

That signifies a jack with a connection that breaks when a plug is inserted. In the case of your schematic, that connection isn't connected to anything anyway, so it shouldn't matter.

    @DarthVader If your question is about where the bypass switch is, it is not shown in that schematic at all. You can see it wired in one of the photos from that link, though. I also have a few of these, that switch is wired to both jacks, shorting them together and cutting out the circuit entirely.

Barrel connector with switch -- 2 conductors, 3 contacts.



Here are some similar parts Digi-Key has listed. Most will show a diagram in the data sheet.



enter image description here



Terminal 1 is the sleeve connection, and terminal 2 is the tip. Terminal 4 is a switch contact that is connected to the tip when there is no plug inserted, and disconnected when the plug is inserted.
