All Multitracked. 2 guitars, 2 vocals. reverb in spades!

No guitar acrobatics, nothing to show off, just enjoying a song.

One of my favorite songs, done very well! You have the voice for it.
Are the guitars in an alternate tuning?

No, both in standard. Are they supposed to be in an open tuning? I saw one guy say they were supposed to, but it worked alright in standard so I never bothered!

Why thank you!

While I have your attention, and while I have the tracks in CUbase, I was wondering, would you guys prefer it in this state, or completely dry, no reverb on the tracks?

I'm doing experiments now.

Guitars no reverb. one vocal has verb, but it's turned down in the mix

Hey Nick -

Nice job! I like the affect of the reverb. Your first version reminds me a little bit of Elliot Smith, who was really amazing. Was this a Beatles tune, or Beach Boys? I've forgotten.

I agree - leave the 'verb in.... more hypnotic.

cool. I did a seperate mix (I'm terribly bad at picking a mix) which only has reverb on one of the vocals and it works fairly well, I may post it later.
