This discussion thread gets me to wondering:  Why did Streetly finish the original 400s in white in the first place?  Was it simply to make them stand out from the other instruments on a stage?  Any thoughts, Martin?
Because they could become any colour that you wanted them to be with the right spotlight and gel.

But what happened if, God forbid, one were to use the wrong spotlight or the wrong gel, or (horrors), both at the same time?!!!
