    I see what your saying about the width of your back, personally I think the definition and traps are lookin great!!! I may have a solution for your width, WIDE GRIP CHIN-UPS!!! Great for it man, They are a staple in my back routine...

    your back is pretty impressive, i wish i had that kind of thickenss i have width and 0 thickness, wide grip pull ups thats what i do, and even add some weight if necessary? concentrate on using ur back at the bottom of the pull up make sure you go allllll the way down and use ur back to pull untill your biceps are about 90 degrees after that its all bi's im sure you know this but thats what i do and i have an unpropotianately wide back.

    I'm 5'9", 194 Lbs, 15% BF...on a bulking way to hell....I train my back kinda heavy, and just use one/two exercices light to squeeze and then work more on definition....not most of the time though.

    why not change your back routine, once a week, still do deadlifts, but then just do 3 other exercises for back, all with width in mind. pullups, v-bar pulldowns, close-reverse grip pullups etc. you wont lose any thickness, and it may just be the shock your back needed

    Back width looks pretty good to me. Try different variations grips for chins...I have the same problem as you

    If that back sucks then you need a good slap in the face, it looks very good and you should be glad, not complaining like a little girl. But do wide grip latspull, wide chin-ups, standing barbell row, one hand rowing in machine.

    Back is looking pretty damn good to me brutha. If you are not satisfied with it, you can pass it off to me. The definition is insane, and I personally don't see how it is lacking thickness like you say.

    Back looks good Bro. CHINS with weight worked great for me, but everyBODY reacts different to different stimuli.....

    Back looks good, but you could widen your grip and trying under and reversing the grip too, plus lots of drop sets

    widening the grip works the inner part more when doing rows.....

    single arm dumbell rows bro....

    and from your pose we cant see the lack of width....do a lat spread and post that. from the font and rear.
