Hail to the King Cover!

Had a few hours to kill over the weekend so I attempted to cover Hail to the King! I found a backing track for the drums and bass but played all guitars myself (rhythm, both harmonies, solo). Let me know what you think! I know I botched the solo a bit... some of those licks are pretty hard and I didn't feel like spending all day perfecting it.

I used a Fractal Axe FX-III with Syn's Cab Packs to make the tones here. I am pretty happy with the rhythm tone overall, but feel like it could use more teeth and bass. I am still struggling to get a great solo tone - this one has too much pick attack and is a bit squeaky at times. Can't figure out how to cut down on that - I've tried a lot of different settings. Welcome any suggestions in improving the tone!
