If I were a carpenter

Cover version of an old tune by Tim Hardin. Always loved this tune and wanted to lay something down. Does the mix work?

Hmm, well the mix sounds pretty good. Did you add any verb at all to it? A little touch, barely audible, would add a nice sense of space. Also, I'd try centering the acoustic guitar.

To be honest, it seemed to me that the key of the song was a bit high for the vocal range, I'd recommend dropping it by 1 or 2 semitones, assuming the guitar is capo'd which it did sound like. Cheers
