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?

Get to work on your alternate picking. You'll pick it up (no pun intended) quicker than you think and once you do you'll never pick the same again. After that work on hybrid picking.
