I agree with you dude...You have to maintain your speed at a level thats fast but still listenable and sound good or else it will sound like a piece of trash. the guitar masters know it but very few realize it.
I learned from it ,when Im just beggining to shred, speed is all that matters to me, I always wanna be the fastest in our class, I even attempted to cover some very fast parts of Mr Cucumbers song by Marcus Paus 2 years ago..check this out

Guitarplaying is 1 Percent Inspiration, 99 Percent Perspiration... :)
