Here is a photo response with my '06 Goldtop 150 P-90...

 

I'd think it is fair to call this one (and all my 150s) a "deep dish carve"!!!!! (of the angle of the light enhances the look)

In one of my earlier posts on this thread, I mentioned how the deeper dish caused problems on the earliest Les Pauls and eventually led to a lesser carve and the stop tail piece. The camera angle that John caught this one at is a great illustration of that. Try to picture how a trapeze tail piece could represent some significant problems with a carve that deep. Buy the way . . .that's a beautiful guitar!!

Kate made my 170 with an extra deep dish carve, on the first attempt they sanded through the maple to the hog. Thats how I got the ultra top, it was one of the only tops left at the time.
