I haven't played electric guitar for more than a year but have played acoustically in the meantime. I found that I was a bit timid sometimes with my vibrato but feel maybe my timing may have improved. Does it sound good?
The Stage Solo. What are your thoughts?

Good job. Some parts definetly sound different from the original, but that mustn't be a bad thing!
amazing man! congrats, when i pass more than 2 weeks without playing electric guitar i just cant do a C chord well haha, really good job !
Also, I think the strings help elixir strings are the best. I know a lot of artists like Ernie ball and promote them. But imo there is no way elixir isn't the best.

There is something that you are doing in the 1st 10 seconds of the clip. Everything Else is incredible but there's one thing that you could definitely improve on in the 1st 10 seconds. I would like for you to watch your clip again over and over again and tell me if you think you can spot it. 
I almost have no idea is it that I am not using the correct fingers for the pattern like only using the first two fingers?There is something that you are doing in the 1st 10 seconds of the clip.

I had a feeling about this. Is it the vibrato that my technique is wrong or out of tune. When I say the technique is wrong like I should have my hand vertical but more at an angle for better vibrato.From 0:02-0:04 in
By the way, this is great for learning having people guess instead of being told.From 0:02-0:04 in

Bingo!! You have room for improvement with your vibrato there. Use your middle and your index finger to get a stronger, more controlled vibrato and angle your hand to where your fingers can do a wrist vibrato more efficiently!! Great work!!
Not bad dude! Practice more on vibrato and start with bend! One more thing use your other fingers more! Keep going!
Sounds different, but yeah, no one wants to hear a note for note imitation, same goes for live in my opinion, if I want Syn to play the solo exactly the way it was recorded, I'll put on the album.
Can definitely tell you've been hanging acoustic for a while. I think once you spend more time on this on electric, you'll get less stiff, and that's what it is - on acoustic, you need to adhere so hard to fretting the notes hard, and vibrato and bends feel different, and it loses some of the slipperiness. That's a great feel when you're doing it on acoustic, but once you're electric again, you need to be able to loosen up and feel it more.
Definitely because of the acoustic love you've been putting out for so long, but that's honest feedback. I *loved* your acoustic version of this song!

Bro, you are going well. Really. Practise more your vibrato, and start now doing the bends. I'd like to hear more feeling too. I know its important to pay attention to the technique and the tempo, but this solo has a lot of feeling, and would be cool to feel you there. But its not bad bro! Keep practising, add the things we all told ya and then record again, ❤❤
