Nicely critical - as if studio would be worried (10)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

fastidious

'nicely critical' is the definition.

'as if studio would be worried' is the wordplay.
'would be worried' indicates an anagram.
'as'+'if'+'studio'='asifstudio'
'asifstudio' is an anagram of 'FASTIDIOUS'.

(Other definitions for fastidious that I've seen before include "Meticulous" , "Attentive to detail" .)
