Sorry - I missed that one. I do like your crop - still has the guitar, and
magically the cap is gone and there are strings and part of a finger.
Dang. I had finally decided on a squarish crop that cut off just above the
bottlecap/cup but left the top of the guitar. Now that I see yours, I like
it better. Apparently, I need to learn some cloning skills, which will
then require me to get something more expensive than LR....
Thanks, ACM.
