Stay Free - rock v 2 warmer ac guitar, more bass
Hi there! Long time no see... I took a break from music for a while. Some inspiration hit me a when I tried an electric guitar. I am not much of an electric guitar player but "Gurano" added some on a second one and there is sort of duelling in the end. I guess you hear well known influences. I have some ideas of lyrics for this one but until then it stays instrumental. Best, Mikael Stay Free v 2

Seems like the link to SC is dead. I put up another one.

I like the feel of this - I'd like to hear the acoustic sounding a bit warmer in tone, but that could be 'cos I'm listening on laptop. I'd be interested to hear this again once you've done the vox.

Thanks paulo. I agree about the acoustic guitar. I don't know why that is. The guitar is new with a solid top compared with the one I had before it sounds better live but not recorded. It looks like the strings, Elixir, which has a coated layer against oxidation produce a colder tone.

Hi Mikeal, interesting tune this, nice. Like the guitars but as Paulo mentioned the acoustic could sound a bit warmer. Are you using the polyweb or the nano web Elixers? I always found the polyweb sounded very dead. I like the d'Addiorio exp coated strings better but imho nothing beats a fresh set of phosphor bronze strings after a day or so of playing.
Greetings, Rik

This is a very cool tune. Nice job on all instruments.. It seems with all the other instruments so full, the bass could have had a bit more bottom. That could be personal taste, though. Really a well played song.

Really nice content very enjoyable listen, I have to agree that the acoustic tone is a bit thin. Still an enjoyable listen.

Janet, notnat, Scotty, twisted6, thepoge, ohgrant: Thank you great people for those nice comments. I hope to put vocals on this and there ought to be a lot of changes.
Warren: I'll check the bass spectrum. I know you're an expert on this. Thank you kindly. Rik: I'll change to the regular D'Arrios I had before I think. I will also check the low middle range and see if I could do something eq-wise there. I do want the the ac guitar to sound warmer...

The bass stands out nicely on this, not buried as in a lot of songs. Excellent.
The B3 sounding organ was a nice touch too.
What a great blend of instrumentation and I just like the whole composition itself.
