I can imagine adding shaker, but I think I'll go for a Cabasa (if and
when my box with percussion instruments shows up again, that is). The
latter allows to emphasize the swing rhythm more than a shaker would.

As for the guitar: I'm not sure. I did 15 takes of it today and a rough
mix after that. I need fresh ears to decide; at the moment I do favor
the D&B version without guitar + Cabasa to come.

What still nags me is how to best mix this fake upright bass.

thanks for all the feedback,
robin
