the rhythm acoustic guitar is a little out of tune - enough to bother me but im picky. sounds like E major (or C# minor or whatever mode) chords with open E and B strings above them - unless its capoed - so it may be an intonation problem with a cheaper guitar. always tune each string for the song instead of tuning all strings open. also the guitar is thin and weak - have you EQ'd it around 250 - 500 Hz at all? it would benefit from some more body which is why it sounds better when the bass comes in behind it...but it lacks body especially in the intro. i like your vocal tone a lot - did you use the KSM 27 through the bluetube? it would sound awesome in my opinion if you applied more de-essing to the male track. i like the female vox esp. the outro at 3:20...but anyway work on that acoustic, de-essing the vocals, and pitch corrections in a few spots and i think it would sound pretty good

I don't hear any problem with the guitar; guess I have a more tolerant tuning ear! Agree on the de-essing. The male lead seems a little too loud too me; at times I got a glimmer of some distortion? (BTW: What was that hum at the end of the song?). That said, very nice performance, very good voices, and nice sound.
