Welcome, Rico. Your mix sounds good. A few suggestions - the snare rim-shots are a bit loud in the 2.6kHz and 5.2kHz ranges, automation to tame those frequencies would help. The lead guitar parts could come up a little in volume, maybe enhance some mid-range to make them sound warmer. That's it; the acoustic guitars sound real nice and the vocals are in there place, the bass guitar and drums hold the bottom tempo together. Nice job!
Peace,
Dave
