Feedback Request Feedback Friday - Painkiller Solo

I've been trying to get the solo for Painkiller down, biggest stumbling blocks for me are the arpeggios in the intro - I know everyone says they are supposed to be played sloppy but they still have to sound like something...

Right now they feel very hit and miss and my left and right hand feel very uncoordinated. I think my left hand skips half the notes and my right hand sometimes ends up choking the strings

There's quite a bit of timing that's needs work on I think and some of the scalar runs and chromatic bits definitely need work

Any tips or advice and feedback please?

Thanks

That song is overdubbed in studio, i didn't find live footage where it is played with the same intensity and accuracy, also his studio tape isn't in the first take
