It's my first song so don't be too harsh but please leave constructed criticism. Tell me how I could improve, what was good, things like that.

I am not a musician but when I heard it it started out good but I then it kind of just stayed there I got bored of it. as far as having potential yes I think so.

You are certainly on the right track. I never made big money as a musician but did play professionally in local (san diego) clubs and am an old guy who still plays (50). Your song definitely has a theme and it sounds as if you can "hear" the rest of the band playing behind your guitar part. Your guitar tone sounds a bit like Metallica, but you might want to boost the higher frequencies and drop the mid range a bit (this a matter of taste and maybe you have exactly the sound you want). Also, I understand that this is a solo composition, but you might want to inject a rhythm component over which vocals might be sung. Just practice and play with as many other people as you can and you will be fine.

I'll try to be gentle, LOL. Your fret transitions were very good. Remember Nickel wound strings are not the best. If you were on an electric try something like Slinky Strings, on an acostic try a smaller wraped string. The sound of your fingers sliding on the strings is a distraction. I liked the beat, rythem, and sound of this tune. Do you have potential? Only if you continue to remember that practise is important and improvement is a necessity! Personally I think you are on the right track. Good luck and keep strumming.

It sounds pretty good, but there are lots of pauses in-between notes, and it sounds as if there's a lot of background noise?! Would sound better with lyrics and vocals. Don't get the key it's in though. And the chord progressions are a bit unusual. Solo sounds unfinished.
