I gotta recuse myself from commenting on any changes I suggested.

Did you stagger the background vocals more? The chorus on the first half seems less tight than on the second half - I like the tighter vocals better.

Another "matter of taste" - I think you're better off having the fiddle or the dobro play, but not both. For example, you've got the dobro doing subtle licks in the first verse where it blends in with the fingerpicked guitar, or at 2:52, where the solo fiddle comes in with a nice lick. Contrast that with points like 0:25 where they're both vying for attention. (And just to contradict myself, I like how you use them both at the end).

Anyway, glad you found something useful in there!

Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?
