Gotta say this arrangement kicks butt. I like that your vox seem to be moving up in the mix a bit, works better across my different outputs. The guitars fit in perfectly and as a whole the song gets stronger the more you've done with it. really solid work IMHO.

Thanks Ron. I'm trying not to gum it up. LoL
The vox are too up front for my tastes, but I have to remember that I know the lyrics really well. So they're perfectly intelligible to me when they're a bit lower. For other listeners, not so much.
The next thing I'm thinking of doing is doing a tic tac bass part to go along with the existing part. Just to give the bass line a bit more punch.

Would that require making the first bass line simpler so the second line doesn't get lost?

You play the exact same line. My Dano Six string bass will do it well. You give it a bit more treble and use a pick. It's an old trick that was born in late 50's Nashville and spread through the system. You'd have an upright, a Fender bass, and a Dano Baritone/six string bass. The Dano would give it the attack to bust through a car radio. A click if you will. Tic....tac.

Thanks Erica. This one is coming a bit slower than the first three...but it's worth it.
Yeah, worth it.
Never hesitate to put your voice up in the mix...I learned that the hard way!
and E's right, it's tasty
I dig your sound...everyone needs their own sound
Yup...but when Carol Kaye came along, she sort of did a lot of that all at once!You play the exact same line. My Dano Six string bass will do it well. You give it a bit more treble and use a pick.

Playing with a pick...that'll do it. And the string mute. The Beat Goes On.

Well...here's a ruff mix with the doubled bass part. I think it's time to mix it and move on. LoL

The guitar fills and bridge are just so tasty. I like the new bass part, though I had reservations it really works on this.
