Wood Side Panels, anyone?

Post by Voltor07 » Mon Dec 08, 2008 5:45 am

Since my last poll on this forum seems to be doing well, I thought I'd bring up cosmetics. Who wants these pedals to match their Voyagers/Moogerfoogers?

They should make wood sides an option. Yes.

Well, I think weight is an important factor... I wouldn't want 2 kg more if it is not needed...

That is correct on both accounts. :shock:

Don't start with me...I'm trying to be good. I didn't mention your Micromoog when I responded to your post in the Voyager forum. I could have though...it was off to the right in the picture and the side panels were facing right at me...taunting me. :lol:

I highly doubt that wood panels would make that much of a difference in weight. 2kg is equal to 2 Liters of water, and the LPTE sides don't have THAT much mass. :shock:

I'd kinda just like them to look like the originals. Wood seems like overkill.

Are you suggesting that the Moogerfoogers' wood sides are overkill? They are just effects pedals, after all. :wink: Seriously, though. Why would wood sides be overkill?

Yeah wood has the advantage of being gig-worthy, and when it gets tatty, replaceable. Also these things will be quite heavy i realise, but surely that's better than having some lightweight thing moving across the stage as you stomp on it?

Moogerfooger pedals are not just effects pedals.
