Default Original Song on my Epi Masterbilt (with my brother too)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=snXqn14qfY4

My brother and I playing a tune I wrote while living in Nashville last year. Pretty excited to see how the video came out.
Recorded just as you see it, gathered around an Ear Trumpet Labs "Louise" and an AKG Perception 120.

That's my beloved, beat up 12 fret Masterbilt, the AJ500RCNS (cedar, rosewood). I wrote the song on that guitar.
My brother is playing an Eastman E10SS prototype.

Great tune! Really enjoyed that, as well as the last one you posted! The last song (the one about a train) inspired me to get my (new to me) Eastman E10SS, so thank for the great songs and inspiration!

Great stuff! Really like everything about it. Aside from the mics, what equipment was used for recording? Thanks.

Incredibly well done! You guys are pros! Keep on the right path - you can have a great career in music.

Is this song for sale? I'd buy it.

What a great original song - vocal and playing, recording and video all excellent!
A treat - like a song from an independent movie soundtrack that makes it big.

Many thanks to all of you for the kind words.
Billy, audio wise, it was just the two mics into a Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 interface into my macbook, running Garageband. It sounds crazy, I have been getting lots of people talking about the audio. I surprised myself with how good just that simple setup sounded.
Jaco, I doubt I would ever totally give up the rights to any of my songs, but if anyone ever wanted to record one of em I'm sure some sort of agreement could be worked out
Thanks again guys. Your feedback really does mean a lot.

Great song and performance, I think he wants to buy it from iTunes but I could be mistaken. Lets see another video featuring that Santa Cruz.
