Hey I know that it's been forever since you replied to my posting haha! But thank you so much for the compliment! I did my very best to play and perfect this peace :)
That guitar tone is.....unfortunate. The original guitar part requires volume swells with either a pedal or your guitar's volume knob. More reverb needed. A clean tube amp would be pretty much necessary. You can get cheap tube amps these days. Your guitar work is so-so, but would benefit from all of the above.
Nice try, but unfortunately the guitar is what makes this piece, and that portion of this performance needs considerable work. As suggested previously, better amplification with some sustain would help.
the fact that kids this age are playin music they can appreciate is a wonderful thing. very well done guys =)

I don't understand all the science around amps and guitar tones, I love Evelyn Glennie and to me your version of Little Prayer is awesome.
I really like the way the xylophone and guitar guy listen to each other, one can see all the time and effort you made to perfect this, well dome!

They're basically saying that while the marimba-sound is very soft and "round", the guitar-sound is really sharp. Kind of hurts your ears.
So better equipment would make it sound softer and nicer to listen to. ;-)

And volume with a better more fuller sounding amplifier.

Your buddy on the guitar needs some reverb. Well done.
