Scales - think of them as tools
Remember that scales are just tools to use when soloing or creating melodies.
It is good to learn and practice scales, but you must also learn how to use those same notes to create an interesting melody that you can use in a solo or when composing a song.
So, after practicing your scales, don't be afraid to experiment with them.
Also, listen to how other guitarists create solos in the songs you like. Visit my YouTube page www.youtube.com/elfcorps for some interesting solos that I like.
