Hey I recorded this with some friends in an afternoon, then went through and learned the in's and out's of reaper as I mixed and edited it. Please let me know what you think!

Sounds good!
the lead guitar at the end seems loud.. maybe drop it down to about the level that the vocals sit
Cool song!!

Good song. Is this you singing? Very, very good vocals. Really strong.

Beautiful song.
I am far from a pro, but I would agree with the comment about the solo at the end, with an addendum: That distorted line that's serving as the bassline, more or less, during the same part - I'd maybe like a little more of that.
But really, really tasty.

Sweet.
And I agree, end solo overshadows.
Still...nice.

Nice song.
The contrast between the intro guitar reverb and the dry verse guitar feels a bit like a let down. I had a play with it and found that even a small amount of reverb makes it feel like a more natural transition. Also a slight cut at 400Hz and boost at 1.5k made me like the verse guitar more.
Amazing work for an afternoon!
