Wow thanks guys, I have practiced with a Metronome before (Paganini's 5th caprice mostly, got that up pretty fast) But not really soloing.
The gear I was using at the time was just a stock
Epiphone Les Paul and a Digitech RP200 and a practice amp I think. Anyway since then I've gotten a 1987x RI and a 1960a cab with a Weber MASS and a
Seymour Duncan Custom Custom put in my bridge (WOW what a difference it made!) and occasionally a my BOSS DS-1. But I'm not some spoiled kid, I worked 6 days a week last summer without missing a day for enough money to get all that. I just started back to work this summer and I think I want to get a few more little boss effects like a flanger, some reverb, a graphic eq who knows. I know I need to tame the treble on the Plexi RI.
Anyway I will try record a newer song than that since It is almost a year old. I've gotten into alot of Yngwie, Lynch, Moore, MacAlpine, and Becker since that recording so my playing style have evolved since then. But thanks again for the nice comments. When I first started playing some guy said some stuff about how I sucked to alot of my friends and it made me pretty insecure (it also made me practice my ass off) and I've been kind of insecure about it ever since. I'm getting better about it though, thanks again for the nice comments.
