Hi mate. There are some things that I think will help you to improve your take on this lesson. The first on is working over the original backing track. It's important to play along with the right drums and bass to get familiar to play the licks over the real thing. There is a simple software called "Amazing slow downer" that is great to slow down backings for practice purposes. I think that it would be a good addition for you.

The other thing that I consider important is to use a tone that sounds closer to the original. You are practicing with a clean tone while the original take has drive and much more sustain. This will allow you to experiment more with vibrato, the sound of your bending, and also will make you be sure that your muting techniques are correct.

The practice is on the right track, but you need more time of right practice to make this one evolve.

Keep on the hard work!
