Am I DWPS? Mr. PC BPM = 220

Since the All The Donna Lee’s You Know video didn’t show my right hand enough, and there were questions about my right hand if it was DWPS or not, here are a couple of short videos on Mr. PC at the same tempo as the last time, BPM = 220. After looking at it under the microscope, I am not sure what to think! I tried to emphasis a lot of two string patters (more in take 3) but sometimes I just go for it and plow through. I get a really weird pick wiggle on the B string for what reason I don’t know!

Just a reminder, this is about my third or fourth week or so on this, as from my first video, I play mostly crosspicking and some cheap UWPS licks from time to time as main meat and potatoes technique. I have gotten this up to around BPM = 250 without breaking up too bad but it gets much sloppier after 240 or so.

Nice tone! Looks like DWPS to me. A loose pick grip may be where the wiggle is coming from.
