What are you waiting for!

Did go with the Baritone Squier Stratocaster again this week (It is a normal scaled 25,5'' Stratocaster with 13-56 strings on it, tuned in B). Wanted to go for "riffy" rock... Nothing too complicated (I cannot go there much anyway)
Recorded a couple variations of the main riff, did loop it and recorded acoustic drum next.
On another session I was able to find a structure for the song, did add some harmonization...
Added a quick vocal line (using cheap gaming headset microphone, who cares!!!)
Wanted to add a bass line, did record that this Saturday's evening. Not a fan of the result (notes itself, lines, I would have like the bass going a bit more somewhere else than guitar, but this is what it is) I like the sound of it...
Lyrics:
Hey!
What are you looking for.
Hey!
What are you waiting for!
bis...
Did swap the snare this week for the little Oriollo Phantom (on the right) that is basically a Ludwig Acrolite clone and a very lively and fun snare.
On the "fitness" side, not too bad again, about 6h30 of cardio this week. Body weight is going slightly down still at about 199lbs - 90kg... It is not easy to keep doing it, but energy is not too bad and results are there so let's GO. Not waiting anymore. I am actually getting in better shape and will try to keep consistency.
