So "noodling" between the strums gets a lil hard when trying to keep it real sounding.. i do know that part can get a touch bland and repetative tho :/

What did you use for the guitar strum? Something on the Motif or another workstation? Whatever you did, it sounds VERY convincing. I thought for sure that was a real Strat!!! I can usually tell a midi guitar vs. the real thing. You sho fooled me....As far as noodling, you did a really good job right before the first verse comes in with a few little licks before the vocals came in. A little more just like that sprinkled in the verses here and I think you'd have it nailed. In fact, you could probably cut and past what you have there. Just my .02. But again, the track is dope! Good work.

And you did say you tracked and mixed this all in Logic? If so, that's another plug for Logic 8 for those on the fence....
