Rules

Here is where the magic happens: the REC board turns bedroom guitarists into real pros. Remember - it doesn't matter if you fail or pass, as long as you keep posting REC takes you will progress.

The entries will be graded by a number of instructors. After grading, members will be accredited with the appropriate points if they pass, and adjustments will be made to their REC level.
Passing grade is 6 or higher.

Your attack is quite soft so those single note riffs don't have much impact. Also to help those single note riffs stand out and have more impact, try taking your fingers off the fretboard once you've played the note and really concentrate the attack and power into the finger that's playing. It give the phrasing an extra 'bounce' and helps distinuish the notes from each other. The other was that you played the slide part too early and missed out a note (check out 0:11 in Lian's version) Apart from these points it was a good take.. your timing is really good !

Practice having this in mind and you'll see how more attention on the things you play will make them sound better and more defined. You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

How to do this? Playing stronger with your right hand. How to achieve it? Concentrating working on your rhythm abilities. Ben & Cosmin gave really cool tips. I would add that for me the best Rhythm exercise for metal is the song "Master of puppets" by Metallica. You'll find this song covered here at gmc!
