This may sound like a joke, but I really want to know. Why that odd pink/purple color for a high-gain pedal? And does the name refer to some song or band or something?
Any idea why the Suhr Riot is that color or named "riot"?

Per pedal tradition, I suppose it should be orange, red or black. I feel like I have just as many pedals that veer away from that tradition as follow it though. My Blackstar LT Dual is green, which is a color usually reserved for lower gain pedals.

I just wondered because I am having a clone built and wanted to come up with a clever name based on whatever the Riot got its name from. I considered Civil Disturbance or Mob Violence, but they seem silly.

Actually, Narita is obscure enough to work.
Never heard "Fire Down Under" before today. Dig it. More so than "Swords and Tequilla."

Rock City? That’s my favorite Riot album followed by Thundersteel.

I was going to go with Anarchy, but wussed and settled for R10T Distortion. I am not into mafia lore, but I think Mob Violence would be a good name, with some sort of Godfather or Sopranos graphic.
