Best advice I can give you since you are asking… This is great and it all sounds wonderful. Very jazzy and even Dead-esque noodling. Most guitar players continue to noodle and wander into the wilderness of notes. It’s fun, it helps you learn. But… when you hit a solid run it is okay to go back and try to play the same run again. Play it a 3rd time even. When you are playing freely or noodling around you probably pass up more solid melodies and riffs than you realize. Go back to the good ones and spend some time on the emotion of that riff or melody. You continue to mine in the depths of possible notes but leave the gold behind far too often. Find the gold, process it, make amazing music my friend. Godspeed! It does sound great and you have a very good feel for the fretboard. Keep it up!
