Perhaps that would be a negative perception.
And if I'm really honest I'll probably keep stalling and never put an order
in partly because of the look.
You'll probably say good riddance right? Fair enough. I'm missing out on a
whole musical ethos because I can't get past a paint job. I think it's
reasonable to make a point about the celtic designs though.
IMO something so individual is bound to put some people off. It's like when
you are looking for an apartment and view one with bright red walls.
Anyway, to use your analogy, I think a majority of people see Ferrari's as
more often than not gorgeous visually. The Wiard celtic designs remind me of
progressive rock or the engraved hunting scene's on Carl Palmers' drums.
I like my modules to have 'classic taste'. To me, stuff like CMS and Serge
(of the currently available systems)  look tasty. There is nothing more
exciting than buying a new piece of kit and spending the first few days just
admiring the look of it.
As I said before and to agree with Mark, full marks to Grant for having a
vision and carrying it right through to the faceplate. I'm not sure if I
could visualise it in my studio so pardon me if I enquire otherwise.
