I commented on this in another one of your entries here already, but PLEASE turn down your distortion! You are using so much gain that in the end your sound has zero attack, less is definitely more here!
Playing wise the take is ok, but still needs some work, timing is not optimal, bending is not in tune and also your dumping of "unwanted" strings can still improve. But don't worry, I am sure you can improve all this with just a bit of practice. -------------------- Guitars: various Gibson Les Pauls / Gibson J 45

Definitely less gain. Vibrato should be from the wrist, not from the finger. You did a pretty good job overall but there is a room for improvement. You somehow don't look relaxed 100% and we need to see confidence in playing. Good work anyway

Well played, but less overdrive will make it more defined.
