Sounds like fun and the Rocket is a great amp.

Are you going to come up with a great pedal to compliment the Rocket :?:
It's called:

British Ball Breaker
GeekScreamer
GeekDriver
Parting Chorus
GeekFace

They all sound great with a rocket.

Good could we start sending those around for us to test drive I promise I might send it on to the next guy. :)

I haven't seen any in person or tried the pedals but I knew they were good :P

Thank you Darin and Dana :D I'll post a build thread once I get going, but in answer to your question, M Fowler, I've been building pedals for a childhood friend who was the best guitarist on the block, but his amp has to go, and his strat needs love. He's now playing in a killing funk/fusion/rock band and I offered to bring his tone to the level his playing is at. A bold promise, but seeing as he already has a bunch of my pedals, I figured he needs an amp, and the Rocket is a worthy circuit. My favorite of the Fisher's. More later, and sorry for the hijack.
