This is a reattempt of a shot I took a long time ago, but with some new tricks I've learned.

Setup was just a blanket and one overhead lamp diffused.

Photoshop was levels, curves, b&w, mask out the logo, dupe copy of backround, usm on headstock w/ mask, guassian blur of blanket w/ another mask, resize, crop, save for web. (not sure if it was exactly that order, but it was those steps).

It was fun, hopefully, it does not do to bad....

I like the angle, just not so sure about the fabric underneath.

For me, not bad. I do turn my head sidewise to read the writing though. The background doesn't do much to add or detract from your image. Good tonal qualities.
