Sage Green and Tort
Why is this such a rare combo? They're like made for each other!
Why is there no Sage Green option in the dressing room anyway?
I swear, if I had any electronics skills I would build a bunch of different pedals, paint 'em sage green and slap a piece of tort on there á la this:
I reckon people wouldn't mind shelling out for something like that.

Re: Sage Green and Tort
You might be on to something there! A guitar modeller comes to mind... Makes for a great-looking and unique pedal, that's for sure.

Re: Sage Green and Tort
Indeed, I really dig the tort (or red pearloid like in the above picture) on a pedal look. I'll have some left over tort once I finish up my current build, might buy a cheap pedal off Ebay and put some tort on it for kicks, heh. Maybe a dis-tort-ion pedal or not. Still no sage green though…
Like an amp modeller, or a multieffects pedal or what? If the latter, I agree, since there are literally no multieffects pedals that aren't butt ugly.Ticker wrote:A guitar modeller comes to mind...

Sage Green is modelled after a yellowed (or greened, as yellow and blue equals green) Ice Blue Metallic.

Re: Sage Green and Tort
Realised you could do it that way in the dressing room shortly after posting… Didn't know that was the source of it, though. I kinda feel like sage green is more subtle than IBM, like greened inca silver.StevenO wrote:Sage Green is modelled after a yellowed (or greened, as yellow and blue equals green) Ice Blue Metallic.
The bass in the op is sage green while the XII is yellowed IBM. It's subtle but I always saw them as two different colours.

Re: Sage Green and Tort
Its a completely different colour, of course. One is a victim of environments and the elements and can vary depending on exposure, the other is a colour mixed at a factory.

Re: Sage Green and Tort
Well, my BOSS multi-effect has a function to make a single-coil sound like a HB, and vice-versa, or either to acoustic. Take the EHX B9 organ and various amp-in-a-pedal modellers as examples and turn out a "Jaguar-in-a-box" sound for example. One could envision a "Les Paul" pedal, a "Tele" pedal, a "resonator" pedal using respective aesthetics.hhhehehe wrote:Like an amp modeller, or a multieffects pedal or what?

Re: Sage Green and Tort
Hey yeah, that actually sounds like a really cool idea. I'd consider buying a SG-with-p-90's sim pedal, if it came in Pelham blue with pearloid
Also, how did you know I had a crush on the EHX B9?

I want one of those pedals. If it does what it looks like it does.

Torty Pedals
Mildly relevant: today a music store is holding a "design your own BOSS pedal" contest, and I took the opportunity to make a tort stompbox. I give you: The Fendertone!
Alas it's not sage green, but you can't have it all.

Re: Sage Green and Tort
I'm thinking of putting a tort guard on my shell pink JM. It's strange but everyone recommends white, which is to right of field for me

Re: Sage Green and Tort
Don't ask me, man. If I had a shell pink JM I'd refin it immediately!
