Like I said several times to know a scale, I mean KNOW it write down the notes on a piece of paper.Then plot it on a 12x6 fretboard diagram. Look at it and you will see layers of information...chords,patterns,and tons of stuff. This is way better than buying expensive books and listening to dreary lectures because you can take whatever you like from that static snapshot.Try 7 note,8 note whatever scales and do this on a regular basis.Take it across all the keys. Do this with dedication and do NOT waste your time on learning someone's solo with tabs.This is a habit difficult to shake and the sooner you do it the better.Here is an online tool to help you generate some cool fretboard diagrams.
