i really like the song but something still sounds kind of off... did you use a click when you recorded this? it doesn't sound "tight" to me, like the bass and acoustic sound like they're not gellin right... or maybe it's just the lack of percussion

Yep, it definately has some timing issue. I couldn't hear the click track too well when I was recording so I went off a bit. I'm gonna try fix it soon.

Really good Miguel. Fix that little timing issue and it will be absolutely superb.

Enjoyed it first time around but agree that it could be tighter. I also feel like I need to listen to it a few more times to get a real grasp on the song. Will critique in a few days.

Hey mate

That was a great tune I thought. the electric blends in well with the rest. As for the acoustic, wouldn't you want to heighten the bass a bit? I think it was suggested before.

Thanks Bo.

It's not actually an acoustic. It's a clean electric plugged in direct. As for the overall bass of the song, I think it's fine.
I bought some pretty good transparent monitors a few days ago and the eq sounded pretty good on them.
Unless you're just talking about the rythm guitar, then yes an acoustic would sound more bassy.
