Also, please let us know how that new black hardware holds up to normal wear and sweat in comparison to the original black chrome plating!!!
All of my EBMM guitars look significantly different based on the lighting and angle. I have a hard time capturing the Arctic and Mystic dream on camera. The color is a deep purple but the shield is a bit brighter due to the flamed maple cap. The bench picture had a lamp 3 feet above the guitar and outside was the lit by the Arizona heat lamp. I'm no photographer so dont take my pictures as a definative representation of the color. Majestic Purple reminds me of the Mopar color Plum Crazy. (I'd give a kidney for a Monarchy in Sublime Green...)
I love the new black hardware. I rest my hand on the bridge when I play and there have been no signs of wear after 5 hours last night. My guitars with the black chrome hardware showed wear on the bridge in the first 15 minutes (but its hidden while I play anyway). I don't foresee this becoming a problem with the new finish. The bridge is a more matte finish with a texture that reminds me of Cerakote. I am very happy with the black hardware.
