looks great
just using this model as an example.., because its a great model. but I THINK im noticing some 'lens distortion' im not sure.., im wondering if the focal length of the virtual cameras is something to often over looked??
to me the render looks scewed, the neck too short, and bent. this is a camera problem i think??

dont worry about the katchup (' tomato source' here)

although, IMHO.., the neck here is bent more than flat (I think the camera a needs to be off set to fix the bent perspective).., gibsons do have a rounded fret board.., but no where near that of a fender.
a great render.., looks like mental ray??
