Hey,that sounds pretty good,well done!!
 About tuning issue,it's more related to how hard you press the string when doing hammer-ons. I know,it's not that easy cause you have to fret it pretty hard to get the note but you're doing really great,just keep practicing to be more relaxed. It'll sound better in short while I'm sure of it.  Great take and effort,appreciated! Btw,have you used any dumpener for this one? -------------------- Youtube

Don't be afraid to use dumpener for this,
you are doing lots of left hand taps here and dumpener is made just for techniques like that. As for the pinky,try to angle it more on string, curve it as much as possible and release it smoothly,that'll help.

That was GREAT Wrk,I'm truly honored,great job so far!!
I'd like to give you few suggestions to even improve your playing on this lesson. First,try using bridge pickup,you have lots of distortion and you'll get more attack with it. I know that sometime it's hard to control your playing when using bridge pickup but give it a try,who knows. And one more thing,try using a bit more "wider" movements when doing those hammer-ons. If you take a look on how I play it,you'll see that I'm almost "slapping" it.  I guess it'd steal you few moments to stay in beat but it's good way to get those hammer-ons more powerful. Thumbs up once more!!! Chris,I see you're doing hard work on forum,lessons and everything. Take your time,we'll be here. Congrats on your new status tho!
