Shifter shaking under acceleration

What's up guys? I have read about the vibration of shifter and i know that it is normal, but i am trying to figure out what is going on with mine. When i am acceleration under normal conditions, lets say 3500rpms max, there really isn't any shaking at all. If i floor it and take it past 4000rpm in 1st to 2nd and 2nd to 3rd the shifter really wobbles, it is like all over the place...almost like it's having a hardcore seizure. From 3rd to 4th and so on it doesn't happen any more. My transmission synchros are fine, it goes into gear and leaves gear just fine. Just under load does it have convulsions from 1st to 2nd and 2nd to 3rd.

Any ideas?

Mine doesn't do it under acceleration but does it while cruising down the road.

It's not just a driving shake, i get that as well. It is a SHAKE! Like feels like a 2-3 inch movement.
