The intro is pretty impressive. I like whatever you did to that bass, it has a lot of character. Once the tune progresses, some shortcomings appear, thou.
Vocal is loud (maybe it has too much presence too, but there's no way to know if it'd cut too much thru the mix because it's already so prominent because of its loudness). I find that you might be listening to a track pretty loud and you think it sounds great but then a too loud vocal comes in and it's like you weren't playing it so loud at all (I'll try not to say "loud" again for the rest of the post).
That clipping distortion for the guitar sounds great for the more muted playing. When the playing gets more open sounding, it's a little too fuzzy. Hence, first half of the solo could use some more definition (oddly, the clipping fits perfectly those last country licks before the tune ends). That weird second half sounds great. BV's are very well balanced and sit behind the guitar (the final chorus "ooohs" could take a little push), though they sound a little weird as if there was some effect on them?
Great drums sound, too. With some automation on the guitar distortion and a second look at the vocal levels, it's a dammned good mix!
