Hey man...welcome out of the shadows, lol.
I haven't read any of the replies, but I saw that Jamal has replied...here's my advice...IGNORE WHATEVER JAMAL SAID, lol.
Okay, the vocal was low in the beginning, then it gets too loud. There's a wonderful technique called "compression" that will make your life a LOT easier. If I'm speaking "below" you, forgive me...but it seems obvious to me that you didn't use any on the vocal...how are you recording? If this ends up in a computer at any point, you can compress it after the fact. It'll make the quiet parts louder, and the louder parts quieter...so the vocal level doesn't JUMP out at you like it does on parts of this.
This'll make me sound like a dick, but can you hear where you're singing flat? If you can, then I've got some tips. If you can't hear it, then I've still got some tips, lol.
Guits don't really sound that bad...but for an acoustic, I totally prefer mic'ing it instead of the direct in approach.
It takes guts to throw your heart and soul into the cold clutches of a bunch of recording geeks...so I'll conclude with YEEESSSSSS!!!
Let us know how you're tracking.
