Thank you to Scott, Gregg and Mario for your kind reviews - I'm slightly blushing
The guitar I used is my Ibanez AFS Artcore using both the bridge and the neck PU. (I use 0.9 strings to give it more treble) The guitar is connected straight into a Line signal on my Focusrite Scarlett 8i-18.
Everything else is software within my DAW Logic Pro X

I have added some auto cleanup using iZotope RX7 Connect.
After I bounced the track used iZotope Neutron 3 to set the sound and dynamics and added a 6.6s chorused Reverb on Bus 1 (-16.2 db) and Another Tripplet 1/4t (120bpm) 68% Feedback Tape Echo on Bus 2 (-14.0 db) and finally in "Verse and Chorus 2" I added a Phaser and a Stereo Spreader on Bus 3 (-9.0db) to set the guitar in the mix as I desired.
If you reached this long - I hope the explanation made sense.
