The attached picture is on the cover of a 4cd set w/ notes by Neil Slaven (JSP JSPCD 77151). Do anyone know where the photo on the right came from (ie, it's provenance)? It looks like a photo of Bo Carter with his steel-bodied National guitar. I'm not sure what that long white thing is on the front either.
Thank you,

There does not seem to be any discussion of the white thing on the guitar, but the question of its provenance seems to have been left open-ended with some folks planning to inquire outside of the forum. I have also inquired outside the forum with no answers thusfar, but everyone believes it to be Bo. I will keep digging and return with an answer on provenance......or not....
Maybe the focus for right now needs to be on the mysterious white thing.

I like beljum's idea re killing reflections from the sun into the lens. My thought was maybe Bo had a crazy trick way of damping the strings or creating a buzzing effect. I'm assuming it is tucked under the string set.
