Although I know some just feel good, they're not Excalibur; they all sing if you make them.

Hey Hey Hey. Take it easy on us 6-stringers. It's probably the most important lesson I've ever learned, to let the song breathe, let the space do the work. I'd want to hear "The tone we're reaching for has to have a lot of space and I feel like we're adding too much when the song really doesn't...
