Welcome to the board. Well the first thing you should do is head down to your local music store and pick up a metronome. Pratice your scales or whatever your learning with the metronome. Start off slowy then graudully build up speed. Thats so you dont sound sloppy and stuff. I'd also recomend that you also buy a book called A modern method for guitar by William Leavitt. Its a very good book that will show you some scales and also show you how to read music. Ofcourse have fun with playing guitar. [img]graemlins/headbang.gif[/img]

Better yet, get a drum machine.........metronomes are good but can get boring. Plus they have different grooves.....when you get comfortable with the metal grooves try a samba or latin jazz it will force you to practice your scales in a manner that you are not accustomed to. I know I know, what's the use if all you are going to play is metal, but trust me........also try playing along the the metronome or drum machine in different tempos.
