Ok, now that i've got everybody's attention, take a listen to something i recorded this week. The acoustic guitars are simulated (electric going into acoustic simulator), and they're there just for the moment, until i record some real acoustic guitars, but still, they don't sound that far off when in solo, but they get completely burried in a mix situation. Any ideas on how to make them stand out more, and have more body?
Also, any advice on how i can make the cymbals sound more like real cymbals? Whenever i mix real drums the overheads sound a lot dirtier and grittier, and mine just sound real shiny (toontrack vintage ezx). Throwing saturation plugs on the ohs doesn't solve the problem, and low-passing them makes them sound just horrible.
Anyway, here's the track so you can listen:

PS:the beer is a lie, sorry.
Also, the song will have vocals too, it won't be so repetitive.
