yes i hear that nice classic vibe...
just some ideas....
1. for me i would dial back the fx.
i DO LIKE that lone guitar that starts off the song.
but for me..too far back. try it dry with a hint or more of only pg dx echo chorus.
2. an old trick recording studios would employ re tracking vocals , was to firstly before tracking the vocs, to lay down a synth lead line or two that matched note for note what the vocallist would be singing.
thus it would give the vocallist a base reference in the vocal tracking phase.
3. i feel some high femme vocs in the chorus could really elevate the song.

Morning JAOM,
The Fx on that intro/solo/outro guitar - spring reverb, tremolo and some EQ. I'll suss out if there's any additional reverb added and reduce that. The spring & trem are key elements though.
The melody line to sing to is good...I use it when I have a predetermined melody.
I don't know if it's P.C. to get some femme high just to lay down a bvocal but I'll see what I can do. There is are some ahhs n oohs on the final chorus at present.
I did have them on all choruses but found they gave a needed lift for the final one - probably where a modulation or something else would've been useful.
I'll have a look at things later today with a view to attempting what you've suggested.

Cheers
rayc
