    Black's classic and looks great with the maple board. However, the purple just screams attitude. If it were me, I'd be getting the grape.

          Note that it seems Charvel is very careful in their marketing materials not to use the word "Original" to describe the Floyds in the production models.

          Same goes for ESP when they describe the Korean Floyds. They just say Floyd Rose or FRT-1000.

          The "Original" gets saved for the German ones.


          And ... black!

              Had a black. Have a purple. Sold the black. Kept the purple. Get the purple.
              I want to depart this world the same way I arrived; screaming and covered in someone else's blood

                50 bones is a drop in the bucket at that price. Plus it's purple, and purple sounds better, right?
                I want to go out nice and peaceful in my sleep like my grandfather, not screaming and hollering like the passengers in his car.

                  That's it, dude. Done deal. Purple shipped out the door for $799. Great deal.

                            Good choice. However you shouldn't ask a forum to tell you what colour to get your guitar in. That's a personal preference and only you can decide that one.
                            In my opinion though, black is better but it depends on what look you're after. Black with maple is classy and sexy. Slap on a glossy three ply black white black pickguard. Can't get much better.

                              Actually, I was leaning toward the purple from the start. The other reason I asked is to determine what might be a better choice for resale. Most people said purple so I'm going to assume purple would resell better and appeal to more people than black. That could be wrong but at least it was an informed decision.

                                Resale value will be a moot point becuase you'll never want to sell it!

                                Kidding aside I agree purple, as a more rare yet not bizarre color, would likely have better resale value than black.
