I have been trying to learn this particular solo since i started playing and I feel like I am getting no where it sounds as off key as the day I started.

I have never aimed to be a pro guitarist but I like playing a little everyday.

I have been trying to learn Bed of roses forever, the first part with the low notes and the pinch harmonic is easy enough but as soon as I move Down the fretboard to that screaming part with the beautiful ring in the original song is where I run into trouble (around 0:15 and especially the bend at around 0:18 with the vibrato) it sounds flat and it is one hundred procent me that is the problem, i Got a brand new and setup guitar so no intonation or anything like that.
And the thing is when i play a backing track along i get even worse at it.

It sounds flat and off key. But i also asked myself the question: if it is because I try to record a very High sound with a telephone mic.

If anyone Got anything please share!
