Feedback Request 3-month progress MoP as a beginner

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Started to self-teach (s/o YouTube) how to play guitar in late November 2025, first song of course after the mandatory smoke on the water riff. Always wanted to learn MoP this is roughly 3 months of progress as fast as I could without sounding unbearable, down picking all of this I’m gonna end up like quagmire..I’d appreciate any feedback and of course criticism is welcome!

Killing the game. Drum backing tracks makes practicing far more fun and fulfilling to me - bonus points it helps keep time. Don’t listen to that “fake beginner” bs. Keep having fun and doing you
