Another nice one Eric...
I like that fiddle part...
It's speed sets up a good contrast for your guitar part...
Good job!

I can almost hear the happiness in the violin player, Eric, and, man, that guitar sounds sweet. For me, the "strings" are too present --not overwhelming, but not quite a blanket where the solos lay either.


Enjoy whatever happens!

Eric,

Love the guitar (of course). Nice use of that fiddle. You are right - it does sound like Jean-Luc Ponty...

Cool stuff...

WOW that guitar is SSSSWWWWEEEET. The fiddle was a nice choice also. The mix sounded great on my monitors.

Excellent chops!


OK, a random thought;
Why does toilet paper need a commercial? Who's not buying it?

Really nice overall sound and an excellent guitar mix (slightly abrupt ending).

Very nice.

the fiddle was a great idea.

F.M.M.

Agree with all the above—the guitar and the fiddle shine on this, the latter especially. I’m inclined to also agree that the synth or strings are maybe a bit too forward and could sit back just a tad . . . maybe. Might be worth giving it a try to see what it sounds like. Nice work on this!

All my best,

Deej

I enjoyed the violin BUT I was waiting for the guitar to return - your phrasing & tone are lovely.


Cheers

YEAH!!! Eric, man, just love your playing on this! As always fluid and melodic with great tone.

Fiddle sounds good too, used to listen to Jean-Luc Ponty with Allan Holdsworth back in the day.

Good stuff, Eric!

Tasteful gtr licks and soloing....agree with what's noted to darken the tone / pull back the violin solo to match up better with the gtr.

Thanks for sharing.

What a tune! Your guitar work and the violin play off one another perfectly here. Thought the mix sounded concise and on point, also. Love how smoothly it flows.

Thanks for sharing smile
