Fade to black 1st solo

Nice! Some small things, you could dig in a little more with your vibrato and the part around 0:30 lends itself to more of a sweeping motion instead of alternate picking. Maybe that makes playing those licks a bit easier.

Thank you! There’s definitely always some details that need improvement. I’m gonna keep working on it

Your note selection sounded right.just keep at it. Post another in a week I wanna see how much better you get.

I will!!

This is great! Two things to offer - #1, NECK PICKUP. That's how Kirk plays it. That's how we play it. Try it, you'll like it.
#2, you're rushing the slower parts and playing ahead of the rhythm. As you're listening and playing along, kind of try to hear Lars doing stick hits or a hi-hat part to keep tempo - feel where it would be, and make sure you're bound to it.

This is coming together great. What a great, melodic solo, and it's got that fast economy picked/sweepy part in there that's so tough to get exactly right for the feel of the song. ROCK ON!
