There were many places where that sounded good, but also many spots where the runs would have blended better and maybe a combo of these two syles would make the repetition less noticeable. It would also sound a lot less mechanical and give you more opportunity to showcase your style. Good call in changing it up though, particularly on this track which wouldnt really suit a heavy distorted tone. The double string slides were a nice touch!

Hey Mpaq thanks for the input. I did have a couple of small hammer on pull off runs in there but not many. I was not real happy with the sound I was getting in the cleaner setting that I was using when I tried that approach. Probably my technique needs a little work. I have really been working on my speed and I have been using Paul Gilbert videos and he tends to pick everything. I plan on doing more legato drills here in the future.
