Hello.  New to all this recording and posting.  Here is a soundcloud link to an old Beatles song with a slight flair.  All done in Sonar!
Looking forward to writing and singing more.  
thanks,

This is a very organic version of this classic tune. Very cabaret. Nice guitar work!

Nice take on this classic. Mix etc seems good.

I sense a bit of a "flamenco/gypsy" feel to the guitars, which is pretty cool and actually seems to work well with the song.   Nice!
 

I once had a gull too. :D:D  Love your voice.  Guitar seems like it's a little muffled.  Like the rasgue(a)do!

Hello: just listened to Norwegian Wood one of my favorite song of all time! Nice job. It is on my own set list when I do a gig. Sometimes I play it with 6 and sometimes 12 string. Really like your guitar style with that song. Can you share some plug- ins and settings you used?..verb, etc. Also wondering how you recorded your guitar. Thanks. I have been doing home recording for quite a while, and always like to share methods. For being new at it..very nice. Much luck to you. Charles 

Thanks for all the positive comments!  Rasguado is great fun, and adds a slightly different dimension to what I play.  
 
As far as the song goes, I recorded both guitar and voice (separately) with an AKG C414 XLII mic through a  Focusrite ISA one pre-amp.  Both the main voice and harmony where processed through Nectar 2 with just a drop of reverb.  The guitar was split into 3 tracks, one for main rhythm, one for the runs and one for accentuation of the melody notes.  I can see where there is some 'muffledness' as well.  Not wanting to sound like a ad for Izotope, but each part was processed through Izotpes's Neutron, which has many presets and unlimited adjustment.  
 
I am still trying to get that optimal guitar sound, as I hear multiple resonances throughout my recording room, that I just can't get on the recording.  There are lots of little sounds in the room, like the HVAC unit blowing air that challenge me.  I will continue to experiment with a few other mics.  I do have a DPA mic that I will try out next.   
 
I do like the Izotope products, as they do seem to bring out a richness, I don't quite hear with the standard Cakewalk products.  

Nice job! Is this the "beginner's luck" I hear about?  :)
 
Such a great tune. Your main vocal is great, your voice has a very listenable quality to it. Lucky again!
Nice job.
 
For the background vocal, you might make that louder 'cause as it is, it's barely there and it's hardly doing it's job of contrasting/supporting.
 
As far as "muffled" guitar, you might be having some phasey comb filtering going on in spots, perhaps? As you have tracked the same guitar lines multiple times, by random chance you may have stacked similar waveforms one upon another? Did you ever copy/duplicate/paste one of your guitar parts?
 
I'd say this is a really nice take on a great tune, thanks for sharing.

This sounds very well here.  You have an enjoyable playing style.  Thanks for sharing.

The vocals were done in one take.  I would love to say that the guitar part was completed on one take, but yes, I did redo some parts and cut and pasted a few things.  I will need to read up again on phasey comb filtering, to see how to avoid it!  Thanks!
