Hi all, well I found the feedback you gave very encouraging and useful. I have made a few changes because of some of the comments.
First of all, I feared the song was too long - and seeing as you agreed @Viscount Cramer & His Orchestra I took some of your advice and pruned the end. I edited 20 secs off, which I thought worthwhile. So thanks mucho!
Secondly, I can see what you mean about the shrillness of the mix
@shadowfax - subtlety is not my strong point!
Anyhow I have smoothed it out a bit, so thanks.
Next
@Skub, yes I added a much needed blank bar to the beginning so that the downward stroke of the first guitar stroke doesn't get cut off! Never noticed that, so cheers! But it's not a baritone guitar, by the way, seeing as you ask. It is a vintage Rickenbacker 330, played on here through various virtual amps to get the different sounds I needed. It has been in its case for quite a while and I am badly out of practice!
Thanks also for listening before commenting!
@Jambrains, thanks for the general approval. I don't play just root notes for bass though, just notes in the key, but maybe I need to rethink my bass strategy!
Finally, thanks to
@Bill Saunders and
@diademgrove , it's great to get nice comments as it fuels creativity for the future!
