Ah, thanks! I think it's one of my stronger pieces in terms of arrangement.

I'm very, very proud of the guitar. It was transposed and chopped
from a sample that sounds absolutely nothing like the final product,
and the CAPS plugins provided the shaping and tasteful distortion to
really bring the flava' out. It's one of my best sample mangling
achievements.

Slowly, slowly! I don't really have enough material at the moment to
do live sets of any reasonable length, but I'm definitely keeping that
outcome in mind. Getting over habitual perfectionism ("man this track
isn't done yet even though I've spent two years on it already") is a
laborious process, but I'm keeping at it.
Again, thanks for the kind words and encouragement!
