i say get a jump on as early as possible. at least get familiar with chords, keys, scales, and how they all relate to each other. I promise you will be a much greater guitarist right off the bat if you understand that. And also jamming with musicians who are better than you is one of the best possible things you can do for your playing

Well I'm doing all that but the whole theory and understanding chords and keys and how scales go with certain keys or chords and styles and blah blahs just seems out of my league although I really want the knowledge more and more everyday! Thanks for your replies by the way to everyone, keep em comin! :smile:

haha yeah it can be overwhelming. Drill the scales you know until you know them extremely well. And what i like to do it put on a blues backing track in whatever key you want and jam over the top of it playing the blues scale in the matching key

just remember that all these things are tools. The more tools you have in your belt and know how to use the better house you can build

I'm gathering tools but so far I know how to use the drool as a hammer and the saw as a wire cutter. I don't know. That thing you mentioned about playing scales over the top of music sounds fun though, I'll try it tomorrow after I learn that pentafuck scale.

i'll simplify it a bit:
learn the blues pentatonic. Play it rooted on the 5th fret of the low e. and play this track while you improv over it
