guitar seems a bit more upfront than the vox in parts.
the guitar and vox are reinforcing a single freq which gets a little peaky at times? during verses.
seriously dont know what to say.It works.

Thanks for precise comments.
With this song I first made a version where backgrounds were muted altogther. In the end I chose current tactic where backgrounds can be heard, but they hopefully don't draw too much attention to them. Normally I make bgs more wide when there's also more instruments.
I'll check the balance issue between guitar and vocals. 90% of my mixing budget went to bass, so I might have missed some important things. I do remember that quite near the end of mixing process I made this song more trubadour-like, and diminished the role of all the other parts.
