not bad my friend. couple of things though... try to be more accurate in your bends as sometimes you were going to sharp or flat. when i first started playing guitar, i was 13 and my teacher used to give me these exercises to do and i'd spend hours a day on them. getting my string bending perfect and such like. aim for a steady rise and fall in the bend to give it that smooth and consistent sound. another thing i noticed was the "run" into the second solo. this is probably one of the hardest parts of the solo but you've gotta keep at it. i remember learning this part years ago! its one of those signature Slash techniques that builds up the anticipation into the second chorus. if you've got the tab of this handy, keep practising this riff until it starts to become "natural", starting off slow and then gradually building it up to the original tempo of the song. this part involves a fair bit of string changes and it can take a while to grasp the technique properly. the best way to learn is to really listen to the timing of the bends, pull-offs etc. and to take it a section at a time  : ok:

hope this help's you  :yes:

by the way, i thought it was really cool how you tried to make it your own and added in little triplet ideas etc.

look forward to hearing the improved version dude  :peace:
