As a pedal designer and manufacturer, the color of a pedal has always been extremely important to me. There is an undeniable link between how a pedal sounds and what color we think it should be. Is overdrive green or is it yellow? Is compression orange or red? It's a hard choice, and it's one that you have to make. The real question is: can you make the choice? You know what you have to do. Do you have the strength to do it?
Okay, that got really dramatic really quickly. Let’s put things in perspective here. This isn’t life or death, but it is pretty dang important. In this episode, I want to do an experiment, a little game I've created called “Color and Effect.”
