Work on your bends... they're not in pitch, the guitar sounds out of tune also, is it intonated?
I'm not gonna lie.. It sounded awful.

the good bits::
the audio loaded really fast!! well done youputfile
the bad bits::
im sorry but it just wasnt very good. same as what blue said. i think you must have just learnt it really quickly and just put it up because you got a little excited about putting something up?? you just need to practice it more man. practice!!! and repost it when its awesome. ( there were some good bits though, some of the alternate was ok.) just practice it untill its nailed well and truely

There is no excuse to why things are out of tune... its hard to believe bends and vibrato would get better with 3 hours of practice... those things are part of your playing... if they are not good in 30 minutes (or in 3 minutes)... then they are NOT good period. You have to practice those things so they are always in your control... bending a note shouldnt require you to practice.

You have to practice those things so they are always in your control... bending a note shouldnt require you to practice. in 3 hours of practice when you become comfortable with playing with the song the bends and vibratos come; however, when your unfamiliar with the song, and are stumbling through the notes, those vibratos and bends become rare occasions, because you are concentrating on what notes come next, rather then tweaking what you already know. Its not hard to believe but a reality after 3 hours of practice things become flawless, in my case i stumbled through the song because i was not familair with it, thus my technique is heavily flawed, and completly s***s.

-if you post it again then, in say... 10 days...will it be perfect???
If so, then I would like to hear it. Because I dont believe it.

In 3 hours i can completely get a lick under my fingers & begin to up the pace, so it's not inconceivable his vibrato wouldn't improve in 3 hours.
It wouldn't dramatically improve, but it'd be better than before he's warmed up and been playing for a couple of hours.
I can't hear the thing though so i don't know if it was ok, bad, ***ed or hatcher.
Intonation is the first step of guitar playing though, you gotta work on accurate fretting, bending, vibrato in pitch. It's the most annoying thing to a listener & espescially other musicians.
You could buy a scalloped-board guitar which'd help with learning finger control. If you slightly press too hard on the string, the pitch will sharpen and sound like schisse.
Yngwie has awesome control and it isn't natural- he's practiced a ***load, so persevere- practice for 3 hours per day for 2 weeks from tomorrow on those bends, vibrato etc & re-post a vid/audio.
It'll be better and should be ALOT better.
If you have Yngwie's "Trilogy" album, also practice "Liar" into along with the cd. I'll send you the tabs if you want for it, but that's a men-from-boys exercise.

-what Im saying is that vibrato and bending dont just get better like playing licks... if they are bad on video and audio... they are probably BAD most of the time. Meaning, If I ask him to play C, D, E (notes...) and place a vibrato in the end... he would probably STILL sound bad... because its a lack of control... hard to say you need to practice how to play 3 notes (even at a slow tempo.)
Its easy, just go ahead an record yourself playing any lick you want, with bends and vibrato... I bet the main problem will still be there.
Point is PRACTICE these things. They matter more then alt picking well, or for that matter anything else...

Ja, that's why i suggested practicing "Liar" along with the audio. That's a completely vibrato'd single note figure (well, it's harmonised but i mean for 1 guitar) & Yngwie is the don juan of vibrato so it's a good benchmark. It's a good thing to practice with a metronome @ 80bpm or something & bending the string once per click until you have that down. Then 2 per click & so on il you get a smooth & always on pitch vibrato- short and wide. Much like alt picking, eco picking, sweep picking, legato etc- you need to isolate and practice that specific technique for sure.

I'm going on vacation this week, and i won't be back till Monday, but i will show it you by then. Sure, I'll make a believer out of you "what Im saying is that vibrato and bending dont just get better like playing licks... if they are bad on video and audio... they are probably BAD most of the time" I don't see how you can justify that. Things work differently for people, maybe you feel that its impossible, while I feel different. Iam using a Fender Squier, and I will show that high powered effects or top notch guitars won't do anything to my technique.

Lol to be honest with you guys i was learned the solo 30 minutes before i recorded; however, next time i will actually perfect it. blue what do you mean by intonated? You have to adjust the bridge so the strings are in tune when you press them down, if you not adjust it right the guitar will only be in tune when you hit open strings. It sounded like it wasn't intonated at all, I doubt that you pressed the strings to hard in every single note, pretty much all notes was out of tune... Intonate your guitar first then work on your own intonation

Im not lieing, yeah your right most people say that, but iam telling the absolute truth and you can believe me when i practice this some more and its better. Pollack, I'll work on my bends and vibrato regardless, but this song doesn't do justice to my vibrato and bending technques.

Plus alot of melodic lines that demands a good vibrato.
