Description

Rock Ballad, with electric and acoustic guitars, and my new fretless bass.
It is called "Open" because there are so many open chords.
Just me having fun with no frets!

	Thank you all... ... for listening. No, the bass neck isn´t rippled, this is just the way I make it sound because of being new at a no fret instrument :) Check out my latest song called Comienzo

	The fretless electric bass... ...was such a welcome addition to the jazz/rock scene. You've definitely got "the hang of it". Sounds so nice. Sweet chord changes, too, for the electric guit to soar over. Nice tune, macoco in Buenos Aires. Check out my latest song called 'Cuz I Can

Progression
This is a very pleasing chord progression and nicely balanced, nuanced arrangement. Love the relaxed nature of the bass and the screams of the distant lead guitar. I dig the slight Spanish vibe. Consider adding a melody. In my ears, it sounds like a music bed waiting a lead voice, even tho I understand that you where highlighting the bass. This would be a great bed to collaborate with. If I can add an organ part, please drop me ma note. Thanks.
