Chuck Norris once lost his keys and couldn't remember where he put them. So he tortured himself for half an hour until he gave up their location.

its all about the wg pullups, so many people don't even know what a great exercise this is for widening the lat spread. Hit them heavy rows to develop that thickness.

Pull-ups are gr8...excellent to widen the back but if you want thickness in the mid-back area you'll need to do seated rows.
Overall I think you should focus on a complete back workout that trains the lats, mid-back, and erector spinai.
Example workout:
1) Pulldowns or pull-ups (depending on strenght - wide grip
2) Bent over barbell rows
3) Seated rows (narrow grip)
4) Deadlifts
5) Back extensions with a stability ballSearching for the right balance...

You need 4 things to build a wide, thick back!
-vertical pulling...pullups, pulldowns
-horizontal pulling...seated pully rows and seated row machines
-bent over pulling...bent rows, T-bar rows, dumbell rows
-lat/teres isolators...stiff arm pulldowns, dumbell pullovers
And of course deadlifts to round it all out!!
