Thank you all (Sheppola, dropbear, bigtop, plgrmsprgrs, MichaJo, henge, Wolffman) very much for your feedback and kind words. At some point I'm holding myself to an EP -under pain of something... So, until its kind of "out there," this whole adventure is pretty solitary. I look forward to posting stuff here, and really value the positive vibes and the solid production advice. I'm going to copy off the whole post and take it into the studio. Thank goodness that I've got a long weekend end what with the (here in the US) holdidays and all. Wolffman: Like all good things I stumbled on that elec tone. I tried panning the raw signal sligtly left and I panned the fx at about 3o'clock right. What, I think, made the tone especially nifty was finger picking the solo, but really close to the bridge (les paul copy). Gave it a "beefy" sort of sound. snskrt
