How Important Is Pedal Color To You?

As long as I can tell what it is in the dark, and see if the pedal is on in bright sunlight, then I don't care.Administrator of the SDUGF

With Lovepedals, differently colored editions of a model usually have a slightly tweaked circuit.
I have three Zendrives and they're somewhat different from each other, both in tone and feel.
PS:I too have a couple of the Neunabers in black, and like the look of the white.
But I'm not gonna replace 'em just for cosmetics..

Monochromatic pedalboards are a thing. I’ve seen folks rocking all black, red or all blue etc pedalboards.

I want color variety, but no yellows, purples, baby-blues, seafoam-greens or pinks (unless someone would kindly sell me a dod Thrash Master cheap!).
Plenty of other colors and plenty of brands/models to choose from,,,,,,so why settle, unless one truly doesn't care at all which is just fine too.

I like a variety of colors but it ultimately doesn't really matter to me. By chance, I always seem to end up with a whole rainbow on my boards.
One thing I really appreciate is when the LED is the same color as the pedal. Makes it easy to see exactly what is on or off when the stage monitor system either sucks or there isn't one.
After a while of assembling boards and noticing the trend, I put together a Nano + with all homemade pedals. I made red, orange, yellow, green, blue and purple pedals all with matching LEDs. I know it's nerdy but it works for me.

I'm not crazy about some of the "goofy" color schemes, like some Z-Vex pedals, but it would never stop me from buying something I wanted, or entice me to buy something I didn't want.
Having said that, I do like my limited edition chrome Xotic SL Drive.

I could never do that. I would ever be changing the wrong pedal. I need multi-color to quickly tell what's what in between songs when the lights are down.
I once started a song with a phaser on that shouldn’t have been on and I couldn’t turn it off because I was using the wah. Pretty comical.
