Thanks Dave for checking out the song. The Gretsch is weight relieved and my wah does this when the wah is about 3/4 of the way down. Did it with my ES339 as well. Not sure if the wah is failing or just something going on with the signal from the humbuckers.

this one is surely your best for me. A great guitar sound before and after with wah effect.
The melody is very nice, very well done.

Yep, the middle ground is getting very compressed. But for us good music like this, playing outdoors, family and friends can help ride out the storm.

Glad to hear you are on Songtradr -- I would think you could have success there given the quality and highly melodic playing of your instrumentals.

We enjoyed the tune -- the wah was special and the mix sounds super.

Thanks so much for sharing smile

Good stuff. Nicely played and arranged. About time we dusted of both of our Gretsch's and did another duet.

Your song does an excellent job of portraying the mood you intended to provoke. Sweet sound and the Gretsch was a great choice for this one. They have a distinctive sound that can't be imitated by other brands.

Great playing and lots of "feel" in the delivery. A really great track! Best to you,

Alan

Sweet, Sweet Tune!! Great playing-lots of emotion and great tone. Love the WAH! My best advice for the political stuff is avoid FB/Twitter. The news is bad enough. I try to find some kind of fascination with the current time and not let it drag me down emotionally but it is tough. Nice work here!! Take care. Greg

Scott,

You've really outshone yourself with this composition; and that is saying something because your work is always excellent!

I set the tune playing, closed my eyes and just let you carry me along on a river of audio imagery. I really enjoyed it. The mood your created made me feel reflective and peaceful. It's always really pleasant to hear songs in a mostly minor key. When you coupled that with a 12/8 feel, you had me in the palm of your hand!

Really enjoyed it!

All the best,
Noel

As trevor said, I also thought the WahWah fx was a little unexpected, but added to the 'melancholy' you set out to deliver.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.

Best regards.

Thank you Shigeki for checking out the song. Yes I seem to gravitate towards the 12/8 time signature and minor chords. I really love the sound of the guitar playing through this chords.
