I think it sounds good man, just seems like you’re uncomfortable playing it. Relax, slow it down, ingrain it into your muscle memory, and the wrinkles will smooth out.
Yes, some parts were uncomfortable. I absolutely despise this solo now lol spent like 6 hours on it. I feel so embarrassed. I tried again for another 2 hours hopefully it's better.

It sounds good, one of the hardest things is finding the subtle nuances of playing guitar. Eventually you will develop your "feel" for the guitar. And I would say your bends become more accurate, and the transition from note to note becomes more natural. Also, it is a great thing that you are recording yourself and listening to it afterwards. This will improve your playing. I would say keep working on this solo. But move on to other things you want to learn as well. Then come back to this solo and work on it some more.

Hi Andrew, absolutely no need to be embarresed, it sounds really good (both versions). I always struggle to get bends right, on your audio they hear good (im not a pro, but i really like what u did)
