Well, the chord work is beautiful  The vocals seem to have a very "bright" mix.  Nice harmonies.  You need to hear what some of the guys up here have to say because this is a beautiful tune and needs to be done to it's full potential.  Great guitar work!

Great comments guys thanks.
The vox could well be too bright as my old ears are likely needing the boost to hear the highs (and lows).
Wondering if that's the "unnatural" note means? EQ? Or is it the take didn't seem "real" or inspired?
More bottom is a good point. Perhaps a bass is needed. I was going for simple singer/songwriter/acoustic but I tend to over complicate things.
 

Excellent melody, harmonies, and songwriting. I'm listening through H-phones and I also agree with what Walt says about bringing up the percussion and especially the bottom end. This demo has very good potential. Very nice Glenn.

By "unnatural" vocal treatment, I meant that it sounds a bit distorted, probably due to overemphasis of the high freqs, followed by compression (which further de-emphasizes the other freqs).  Almost sounds like you're singing through a bullhorn, although not nearly as extreme as that.  Maybe back off on whatever EQ you're adding and let the natural frequencies do more of the work.
 
As for the percussion and bass, my thought was that the percussion itself needs more bass frequencies, not that the song needs bass guitar.  But of course it's your song. :)  I think regardless of whether you add a bass track, I'd still suggest adding more bottom end EQ to the percussion.  Right now they sound like you ran them through a HPF set at around 1k. ;)  I say let 'em fly!

When you listen to the "naked" vocal track (without any effects), does it sound natural, like you're listening to yourself in the room at close range?  Or are there problems with the sound that you need to fix with some EQ?  Maybe you don't need any mid-range EQ at all.  How does it sound if you remove the EQ modifications at 800, 1200, and 3500?
 
Also, as you mentioned above, it's possible the reverb is adding significant color.  Maybe, as a test, see how it sounds without the vocal reverb.  If your frequencies are back to normal then you should consider using some different reverb settings, or even a different reverb effect altogether.

Nice tune. I love the Harmony parts and the guitar sounds great. If it were me, I would bring the percussion up a bit and the vocal down a bit. Then I would probably change my mind a few hundred times! Hahaha. I like it a lot.

Sweet guitar work my friend,vocals are performed well but maybe the hipass filter you're using is to a tad aggressive, just let some of the lowmids back in.

Glenn,
 
Cool song, really like it.   Guitar, vocals, percussion are really good.   It needs some bass though.
