Link worked... Not bad Capt!
 
I think the "narrowness" is coming from layering on top of the completed mix for the backing track, there's not much you could do with that as is.  I'm not sure how many guitar layers you have in there, but if you have multiple you could pan them heavier.  You do have a cool stereo chorus in some places that sounds nice.  Also, some mid EQ cuts to the backing track may make a little more room for your tone, but may start to kill bass / drums if you go too far.

Thanks for that, I think I'm starting to understand, and I had suspected that not being able to adjust individual tracks of the backing track would limit my options for the final mix. And can't kill that bass and drums, they are the main stage, gonna have to find someone else to kill (where's that cowbell player?) Are you playing a real bass? I have several good bass synths' but hard to bring to realism due to my keyboard style (like a caveman turning a stone into a wheel)  Again thanks for the tips.

Definitely real bass, synths never get the full dynamics, especially for slap style. That's my main instrument really, everything else I play is trying to keep up with the bass.

Very creative. The playing is nice man - love it - there's a lot of '60's feel to parts of this.
 
Love it.
