Chuck,

If you do some more photo's (in addition to the lighting suggested above) consider using the guitar only in a compositional way. Your son does not have to be playing it to get the full effect. Also, you don't have to show the entire guitar to make your point.

I always equate music with drama, and drama comes easiest from lighting and pose.
