hey neat, what a compliment.  No studio time though, just my messy office, my Martin acoustic, and the trusty 'ol Rode NT1-A microphone.  I put the mic about 10 inches from the 12th fret and it turned out pretty nice.  It's got a little bit of reverb and compression on it.

welcome!

i would suggest going original as often as possible, but this is a really cool cover and you clearly have better "musical genes" than folks like myself!

i got dragged into this a couple of years ago by @onezero and he gave me a some crucial pieces of encouragement: keep with it no matter how many weeks you miss, and also do whatever comes to mind regardless of style, theme, or whether it sounds like a finished professional piece.

i only got 5 tracks in for 2018, but that was enough to warm me up and last year (on the alternative odd-year http://streak.club forum @onezero set-up, I believe based on what @leafo had done a couple of years before) I managed to get every week in- and i absolutely can not overstate how much of an impact it has had on my writing and production abilities.

in short, awesome work and you will thank yourself if you stick with it even if it's not every week!

hey thanks for the encouraging comment.  That's what I'm really hoping for a year from now: much more skill than I have today.  I'm sure it gets harder and harder each week but I'm gonna try my best.  also, congrats on completing last year!

Damn dude, this is solid. The whole mix sounds so warm.  Excellent job on the recording and processing.

thanks, I really appreciate that.  I haven't recorded a song in a long while so I was a bit rusty and it took me a good deal of time to get it right.  I'm pleasantly surprised to receive compliments on the mix.

This was all done in FL Studio if anyone was wondering.

thanks for the compliments!  I only did one take of the vocals because I was running out of time.  I was hoping to add some harmonies in and tweak the sound a little bit.  They sound a bit...off to me so I appreciate the compliment

Sounds great as others have said. Any tips for recording vocals? Same mic on vocals?

Thanks!  Same mic was used on vocals and guitar, just with a pop filter.  Sing standing up.  I used to use a Shure SM-57 through a Samson C-Valve for recording instruments but got lazy and started using the Rode NT1-A.
