Took another listen, section 2 if you like (1:10 ish),
the Strat (I assume the Strat) is very ethereal.
Mind revealing the signal chain on that?

It's not a strat. The third guitar and the wah guitar are strats. The one playing the melody is a hollowbody. It's actually a sample library from OrangeTree. The guitar coming out of the library was lightly compressed and EQ'd, with a little bit of spring reverb. In Sonar, I used the Waves SSL to get the sound I wanted, then used sends to two delay lines. One delay is very short and fast, almost like a slapback. The second delay is much slower, with more feedback. I automated the second send so that longer notes echoed. That's it. Nothing more than that.

Well, I found it very cool indeed!
Kind of "haunting".
Thanks for sharing, the tune and the technique.

very nice, Dan!  love the piano intro and love the whole soundscape you've created here.
 
I do agree with Tom above, tho, that the piano sounds pretty "heavy-velocity" wise and I read your answer  and understand your response, but just wanted to mention that it did sound pretty even and hard velocity to me - I guess I would have preferred a little more dynamics in it.  but that's just my preference - which, if you add $5 you can get a coffee at Buckstars...
 
great job on the mix and the new recording, Dan!

Hi, Dan,
 
Truly a beautiful piece of music, well written and performed, excellent arrangement and a fresh, modern, open-air sounding mix!
 
Definitely radio-ready in my opinion, dynamite work! 
 
Have a great weekend!

Thanks for the listen Reece! Totally understand your point. I've modified the intro with a field recording that, I think, makes the piano sit better now that there is some context for it.
