Had a "Good Time" with this one!

Let me see if I can explain the 'second guitar'. The first guitar line is the intro guitar which has big fat chords. When the drums come in, there is a second guitar playing a funky chop rhythm. In your mix you have that on the same side as the main guitar so in my view the 'second' guitar gets lost. I believe this second guitar line plays a very important part in the character of the song and needs to be more present. Listening to many of the other mixes of this song you will typically hear this 'second' line panned opposite the initial guitar line. This gives the song more width and establishes the great funk aspect of the song. There are four main guitar parts in this song which are layered throughout the song along with the organ. Admittedly getting all of those parts right ion the mix is not easy and there is obviously no right way or wrong way to do that. Based on the overall quality of the sounds you have produced here, I truly believe you could do better with the mixing of the guitar layers to support the character of the song.
