I chose black. Don't want my pedal board any more shiny than it has to be.

Mine is silver- but I would have bought the black one, did not know there is a black one back then. But silver is nice, too.

The silver isn’t shiny at all. I have it and quite like the look. Doesn’t show dirt as much as black. However, I must say, this is a pretty odd thing to worry about. I would go for which ever colour was in stock or that I could find used.

Mines silver. But it's what the
Dealer had when I bought it.
They are the same thing so
Like a car its subjective.

Black absorbs tone. Silver reflects it.

Black is great and I thought black radiates all the frequencies while silver reflects all the frequencies (;-))
