Hi, I watched some of your videos. You play good, but if you reign in the speed your playing will sound more tasteful and you will find much better tone and clarity. It's great to have the speed but most of the time you don't need it.
E.g. listen to/watch the youtube video of Allen Shelton playing Bending The Strings (a tune he wrote, not Doug Dillard). Also John Hickman with Turkey Knob. Both have the 3T's: Tone Taste and Timing.
I'm not a critic, just trying to help you mature as a player.

good notes...just a little too fast...slow down just a bit...it's not about speed...it's about clarity, and timing ;)
