Fred Shannon's guitar is beautiful, but the legs are not. Can they be powder coated to match the bodys of the guitars? Will they eventually be available in carbon fiber in all the other colors besides black?

Mike,
The legs on Fred’s guitar are chrome plated. The aluminum legs are available in chrome, black anodize, powder coat (your choice of color) and the carbon fiber legs in black only.

Mike, I had my choices of everything Kyle stipulates, but I wanted chrome...Too, I'm not the best photographer, nor subject in this business -- as is evident by the photos -- and I'm sure we didn't present the entire instrument in best light...However, that said, the legs look much better in real time than is shown in the photos...The plate job on the legs is immaculate with no flaws that I could find anywhere. Mike I have to edit and add --- you surely wouldn't want to unscrew one and use it in a bar brawl. It is so darned light you might as well use a fly swatter. FRED

When I get mine, I will have the legs powder coated to match the rest of the guitar.

Choosing a color is going to be hard.
