Are the collettes painted or powder coated?

Followingbob should look into Gun Blue...it oxidizes Brass to turn it Black, is stable and thickness is practically nothing

Its the same mogami that Nick uses to wire the collettes for the Nbox(he wired these collettes), I am not sure of the model though, its thin.

Thought I would post these pics of them in a couple mounts as well, I must say I think they fit the DinA bar and the SGC clips better than the Schoeps, meaning they are nice and snug but it doesn't feel like you are going to break the mount when putting them in.

Right now you will have to call Jon(followinbob) to discuss pricing

This may be a stupid question but do non-Schoeps collettes have the potential to affect the sound? Up until this point all prior listening comps done in the past used some form of Schoeps collette that I can think of.

Those do look really cool and I'm sure the Gefell folks are doing backflips that this is moving forward.
