Looking for feedback on track

looking for any feedback on track..
what does it need for better sound quality? More high end, more low or middle end.
i could definitely spend more time on the mix.
Any feedback would be great thanks

    What it really needs is some loud guitar!

    But seriously, I didn't really hear a problem with the mix itself.

    A few guitars, a couple of basses, a MIDI controller, a mandolin, a banjo, a mic, PodFarm2

    There is some mud in the bottom end the kick sounds very much like a box, some surgical EQ around the bottom end instruments to emphasis the fundamentals of each would probably help.

    Thanks for sharing quite an imaginative tune.

    I agree with what Wookie said.  Try a mid Q cut between 150-300 hz and a slight boost at2500-3000hz for a little sparkle.  You some good things going on in this mix which makes it worthwhile to experiment with.

    All the best,
    Lynn

    Thanks everyone for listening and commenting..i do notice the low end is muddy..i do have troubles with the kick and bass, which is the most important for dance music.. when i do my final mix down..as far as eq i just roll off and cut anything below 45 hz and filter out any extreme highs on the mix...on the final product i dont normally cut or boost, as iv already cut and shaped every instument as i go..i do like the input u guys gave and i think i need to spend time experimenting more with eq on my final mixdown, boosting and cutting or just go back directly do the kick itself and work on that..im certainly not a precise surgeon but i do understand the use of hi pass and low pass filters. i hope one day i will understand how to make a perfect mix..definetly have to keep it simple as possible and if the mix gets really busy lots of automation and sidechaining is a must..its alot of work and lots of options..but eqing everything into its own freq is everything,that and so many other things..thanks for you inputs, i see what u mean and wil try what is suggested
    ..im just trying to figure things out and im not the best at articulating my thoughjts
