Sounds great. Nice piece and playing. With your recording setup and reverb there is a big full sound (and parlor guitar to boot).

Great song (hope to hear more from you!). Strings (and playing) don't sound "stagnant" at all - some very pretty stuff going on in the song. Very nice, clean playing.

Hey ccarnucci, thanks much! I've been liking the M1 and condenser are pretty decent together.

I enjoyed that a lot! You used some unusual chord voicings and riffs to give this a very jazzy sound!

cool! I can tell you use good old-fashioned method of getting great sound - you just play very well I like that harmonically rich approach to the blues
