Thanks, it sounds better now, just had a re-fret, fingerboard skim and setup.
Strings are now Elixir 11s

Very nice ...well done! Please forgive a couple suggestions. A tiny piece of foam tucked under the G string right up agains the nut will reducing the open string brightness and sustain just enough to make it blend with the rest of the pattern. Also, the notes you're playing when you sing the word "moment" (as in "moment to arise") are an open A and a C (1st fret of B string). Instead of the open A, the correct note is an open D. Again, no offense; you've obviously spent a lot of time on this.

Can't be a**sed with bits of foam ;)
Yep, I suppose I could play the D, sometimes I do :) , mostly I play the strummed G instead of the triplets nowadays.
