Great advice ^^^

To the OP. You seem to have good pull up and chin up ability. Perhaps you can work on holding (WITHOUT SHRUGGING) isometrically at the top to fully engage the lower traps and also to get the chest to the bar. Those last couple of inches of getting the chest to the bar is where the real upper back strength lies.
