Playing at that level might not sound particularly difficult, compared to shreddy stuff - but it requires a lot of control.
But the real skill behind 'feel' in your playing is having a musical ear - by which I mean you can easily lock into the 'inner pulse' of the music you are listening to and can identify pitch changes accurately. These elements are at the core of the language of music.
The only way I have developed this (there may be alternatives which work - but I'm not aware of them) is to learn to copy people's playing you like note-for-note and play along to it. Recording yourself doing this helps, as listening back when your mind is not occupied by actually playing allows it to concentrate on evaluating your performance. Keeping recordings also allows you to track progress. Once you've nailed someone else's solo, start playing your own - and keep listening back to recordings, identifying areas you'd like to improve.
It's surprising how quickly your ear can develop - like any other aspect of mastering an instrument, it's really a matter of practice.
