The acoustic guitar solo is very upfront, I like it! I like how you've emphasized the electric guitar riff in the chorus, I totally missed that! I also like how the acoustic and electric guitar solos are almost unified, they sound as one.
okay you warned it's mastered... I think it's too squashed: to my ears, it sounds flat. There is a lot of wash from the snare drum all over the mix. I also miss the beautiful percussion. The bass is solid, I like it!
Mastering does not have to make it very loud these days. IMHO. Maybe, just for a test, you deactivate most of the bus-level dynamics processing?
EVERYTHING is squashed to death! Sounds like 1176 with fastest attack/release on each elements + 2bus ^^ Don't be so sadistic, let instruments breathe and talk to each other. Cheers Wink
