Default "Autumn lights" (original) classical and electric guitar version

Good morning,

just recorded two versions of a new fingerstyle piece: "autumn lights".
One played with my classical one with my electric guitar.
I hope you enjoy listening! I´m thankful for your comments and feedback.
If you like it, which version do you prefer?
Thank you for listening!

That's a really nice composition

Hard for me to pick.

Works good on both, they stand on their own pretty strongly to my ears.

Caught my attention as I composed a tune with the same name. Yours is a melancholy tune.
Of the two I prefer the classical (though sounds like piezo pickup is part of the sound).

Nice work. I obviously prefer the sound of the classic

Hi Andre'!

What a beautiful piece! Very well done! Haunting, really... Beautifully done!

I like this piece on both the classical guitar and the electric guitar. They both sound terrific! If I had to choose one, I might have to pick the classical performance, but there is something very magical about the electric performance, too!

What a cool idea to record this piece on both guitars and see how they come out!

I guess I'm in the minority here, but I preferred the electric version. The hollow, haunting tone of the electric seemed to fit the mood of the piece better.

Thank you Derek for your feedback! I only recorded with two microphones, no piezo.

Oh heck. I wanted to go acoustic, this is the AGF after all, but dang, the electric was also great. Maybe a great piece with flawless performance means the axe you use is less important?

Thanks for sharing, and making me feel useless in deciding the debate.

Cheers,

Dave

Loved it! Both sound good to me with a preference for the classical.
