    Ok, where do I start.
    First, the drums are way too far back in the mix. You need to bring them out more. Maybe add a little reverb. Also I noticed there are no fills. Might want to put a few in there to give it more dynamics. Compression might help.
    Second, I couldn't hear the vocals at all. I want to hear what that freelance buffalo hunter has to say. The vocals might have been buried beneath that cry baby guitar.
    Third, I can't say enough about the wah thing. You know, I hear your wah and it makes me woo. I especially liked the Eddie Van Halen thing you had going there at one point. You just can't get enough of that wah. Wah is where it's at. Wah is so rythmic it makes one want to wah wah. Know wah I mean?
    Fourth I love that Casio CZ series keyboard. Mine had a simple midi setup.
    Btw, who does your mastering?

    Someone stole mine when we left our gear at a club after a gig to pick up the next day, they also took my DoD distortion+. (loved the distortion that thing made)

    Haven't been able to find a real vintage Cray Baby since, just the "re-released" crap.
