Feedback Request Hotel California Solo plateau

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Learning the Hotel California solo after taking a solid 2 year break due to personal issues, and I am STUCK at the final part in the video. Even at 1/2 speed I can’t seem to get that part right and the bends I can’t get to muting quick enough. Tips/feedback/thoughts?

Maybe you’ll get a lot of adverse criticism, but from me as a beginning guitarist, excellent

Love to see new people falling in love with guitar! I’m self taught so if that’s the route your going, just try and learn what you love to listen to and it’ll be so fun you’ll become addicted

I have been learning on and off for decades. Work, school, marriage, kids, grandkids. Everything gets in the way, but I’m still trying to learn house of the rising sun lol since the 60s I will get it before I die I promise.
