I liked the song, REALLY liked the rhythm stuff. Lot of Van Halen/Joe Satriani chord progressions in there, very cool. The lead was fine, however, if you used a pick, you'd be able to do those runs a lot faster and more smoothly. The parts you fingerpick sound broken-up and over-staccatoed, I used to fingerpick the electric, too, and my scalar runs sound INFINITELY better now that I've switched to a pick. Other than that, though, you have some great ideas in there.
