Awesome Mix! I really like the fade out on it, nicely done. The only thing that I stuck out at me was the slide guitar. It sounds a bit uneven. I think with a small amount of automation here and there, it will be under control.
I really think it sounds good and the imaging on it was really good, the vocals seemed up front!

Very good, I like it. Vox is just perfect the way it is.
I like the naturalness of all the instruments. Suits fine this song.
Only one thing bothers me: some how I feel that acoustic guitar in the left makes this mix to lean on to left.

Thanks Jason,
yes you're right, slide gtr is "unprocessed" (just an hipass) and it's probably a bit bulky

Yes all mix is a bit left weighted, meters tell me it also

I'd perhaps suppress the vocals from around 8k or so. They don't sound bad, but I think they're a bit too "hifi" compared to the rest of the mix. And perhaps a little more of that never ending cleaning of the 100-200 Hz range, or lowering the level of el. bass, although can't say I did any better job. Great soft sound, good separation and intimacy.

Yes, thanks
I previously curve out 1 db of 100-200 hz in my pseudomastering stage as well a multicomp focused on the 8-10 khz, 'cause I felt the need. I don't want to move more than a db on mastering
Now you convinced me to go back to the mix stage
Thanks Kapu and thanks guys
