Nice retouching job, I can still see some of the tuning peg.

TJ, Been playing guitar now for 45 years,did my first live gig in 1978,proud owner of a battleworn vintage 72 Les Paul custom I still gig with and I have done fine w/o that extra string.Bet if you gave BB KIng that Carvin he would put it in his closet ;·)

seriously though ...lighten up, this was just an idea for a chop,the seven string Carvin although I have never played one looks to be a fine guitar and I'm sure you play it well

...and I can't understand why someone with your PSC experience would base his voting decision on taking to heart the comment in the author's note instead of appreciating the work that went into this entry...

on first sight it may seem like I just cloned out that middle string,not so please have a closer look,I also took away the very top string (bottom B) and moved up the E,A and D with their shadows,the nut and neck were adjusted for six strings...
|

... the G & B strings (& shadows) were shifted up to align with their position on nut,the truss rod cover was also worked to be coherent with the new situation,& the D tunning peg removed,lastly I made the star from the mother of pearl Carvin inlay

.. and all this was done imo,with exact photorealism and solid visual coherence,definitely not worth a vote...should've made a "guitar -bot" LOL !

thanks so much brad,no problem looks like you weren't the only one lol... I knew that would probably happen when I did it,but to me it was a personal challenge and I am pleased with the results,sometimes votes take a second seat to personal goals :)
