Bulking: Clean Diet?

[Warder]

Scotty,

You have a pretty solid base to add a significant amount of mass. You look like you gain weight easily, therefore you can't be as loose with your diet as a lot of people (I'm the same way). Focus on a lot of compound movements and not so much isolation stuff. Keep the weight heavy. You have a pretty wide midsection so when working abs I'd stay away from using any kind of weight and just do bodyweight exercises.

The significant weaknesses I see are in your chest and arms and also shoulders, but your chest stand out more than the others. If you put in the effort you should have no problem gaining muscle in those areas.

You definitely don't need to be losing more weight before bulking.
