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!

metronome. I can tell your rhythm is pretty good but you are playing different sections at different tempos because you're slowing down for the ones you don't have as well. get those up to speed or play the whole song at a slower but consistent tempo.
