Hi, Rik,
Beautiful playing with wonderful guitar tone and a haunting melody! To me it sounds like it would fit perfectly as an interlude for a romantic scene in a movie soundtrack.
Great stuff, my friend!  Bob

LOVELY! Sorta reminds me of Tarrega's "Capricho Arabe" but yours is less melancholic. Very nice.

Sounds like nylon string to me. Very pretty.
Maybe I should consider turning on the recorder when I set around and noodle on the guitar a bit.
I liked it.

Hi Rik,
Lovely. Peaceful, relaxing, and elegant. When are you putting all your noodlings on an album?
Cheers,

Beautiful, Rik. I'm not nearly as poetic as Malcolm, (which is probably why I don't write many lyrics), but this is really nice.
Anyway, I like this. We should collab sometime. :)

Hi Terry, thanks. As soon as the record company hands over a big wad of cash as an advance, I'll make an album. ; )
Hi Mark, thanks. Yep, way past 21.... ; )
Hi Janet, thanks. Are you sure piano and guitar MIX well ? ; )
Hi Danny, thanks. Only two chords ? Not bad ; )

Wow, beautiful piece, especially for an improv Rik. Gorgeous guitar sound too, and the ambience is perfect.

Sounds really good. Was this recorded direct or with a microphone? Was any compression used, or are you just that good?

Nice Rik! Sounds like a great bit of improv to me. It would be nice to hear you work it out and make it even better. :)
Well done!

Hi J, well, at least two like it ; )
Hi James, thanks, it's a nice sound isn't it .
Hi Tim, had to look up unencumbered , you're right ; )
Hi bitflipper, this is part of an ongoing experiment to get rid of the di'd sound of my di'd guitar ; ). It's usually to noisy for me to record with a mic. Either I'm to noisy, chronical bronchitis, or the traffic, neighbours etc,etc... This is two tracks of di'd guitar. One mono with a bit of compression set up just to catch a stray spiky note and a bit of reverb on a ambience setting to simulate some space. One stereo track, well simulated stereo by using Voxengo Stereotouch vst. TCElectronic m30 freeware reverb on a bus for both tracks, a little for the mono track, a lot for the stereotrack ; ). Eq is mainly a highpass to get rid of the "thump" you get with di'd guitar and a dip at 1 khz to make it sound more "natural" ; )
Hi Robert, thanks for listening, working on a tremolo section so maybe ...
Rik

I am in awe of people who can consistently record a natural-sounding acoustic guitar using just microphones. Using the pickup avoids so much aggravation that I don't consider it cheating. But when it works you just can't beat the real sound of wood ringing out in a nice room.
Nevertheless, whatever you're doing, Rik, it's sounding great.

Good played. :) ... and i like the idea of improvisation... hit the button n just do it!
...and it is good sounding too. I would consider to remove or drastically lower the reverb though. Give it a try:)
Cheers

Hi Bitflipper, glad you still like the sound, since I don't have a nice room, mic or guitar ; )
Hi Larry, thanks, just a happy "accident", again : )
Hi Bengt, thanks for listening, if I would take away the reverb this tune would just disappear ;)
