I think that's much better. Now, just wait to use that double stop until the band is building up to the IV chord. It's a bigger sound, and using when the band is just vamping over the I chord doesn't let you really make use of the extra energy that it brings.
You are on the right track. You were rushing a bit in spots but that is easy to happen on a slow tempo where maybe your "feel" doesn't quite match with the track. Listen to the snare on 2 and 4 try to lock into that.https://www.dropbox.com/s/hf4stg8dyoim2q3/20181114_233445.mp4?dl=0
This is my timing exercise that Griff suggested I try. Admidtly this timing and counting is kicking my a** but I won't give up!
I didn't hear a bad note. There were a few licks where I sat up and said where did that come from? (in a good way)Okay, finally got up the guts to submit an improv. Mistakes and all.

Still doesn't feel quite right, but MAYBE a bit better?I think that's much better. Now, just wait to use that double stop until the band is building up to the IV chord.

You want to use them to build up to the IV, not once the IV has happened. I'm working on a video for you, check email tomorrow or Friday for itHmmm... I thought I DID do the dbl stops at the IV (at least in the first 12 bars) I'll have to work on it a bit more.
Thank you...This timing thing is kicking my a** but I will keep pushing forward...Griff gave me more homework which I will do and post..You are on the right track.

@MikeS I think that's much better as far as the timing and mixing up the ideas.
Sorry... I guess it did come across that way.Hmmm.. I'm hearing an unspoken "but" ...
