I always had a "thing" for the look of classic Italian Gitzo tripods, so I wanted to use the classic silver vein paint for a pedal, I love it, but I think Ronni could live without the paint color and texture, then again Ronni loves all those fruity pebbles colors. :)

I'll use Really Right Stuff, Arca-Swiss or Acratech for my inspiration next time around. ;)

Dang, I knew I'd seen that paint finish before. I was once a Bogen man myself, but have since traded down to (gasp!) Slik--but only to leave more $$ for guitar gear.

I recieved the half gainer today and allthough ive not had chance to play it yet i have to say the finish is superb without doubt one of the finest looking pedals ive owned!
Plan x i have to say i think your way off the mark with this one which is unusual for you fella!
