The guitar sounded mighty fine to me. Vocal is good too, but I would like it to be a bit louder in the mix.

Ronnie, really love this tune, and think it would make a fine busking track indeed. Reminds me a bit of Willie Nelson's laid back classical style, but with your own spin. Lots of room for your spiffy guitar work to entertain, too. Love it!

Nice melody and vocals! As someone already mentioned, the vocals are a bit quiet.

Donny,
Yeah, this has a Willie Nelson type feel to it . . . From a production standpoint it could use some tweaking . . . the vocal (apart from the sibilance) is a bit high end . . . I'd like it a bit warmer . . . but, hey, that's all personal preference and subjective . . . but it doesn't sound like the singer is in the same room as the band . . . so maybe play with it a bit more. I like the tune a lot as is!
