Look, there's nothing wrong with having any Boss pedal on your board (even a Metal Zone, if that's what you want), and perhaps we should all of us divorce our pedal choices completely from the design of the casing (or the graphic atop the casing), but given the number of people showing off their very pretty basses on here or awesome pedalboards, one must assume aesthetics does play a part for a lot of people. Not more than sound, absolutely not, but it's not for no reason that EQD, Walrus Audio etc. spend time on making their pedals look amazing. It's also not without reason that so many of us chose basses that visually appeal to us. To be clear, I wasn't saying I was wanting to sacrifice tone for appearance, not at all - I want both and so I came and asked for recommendations from people who would hopefully know.
