I'm going to re-run the Guitar Fundamentals II Course, because it seems like there's something I may have skipped by accident or just plain forgotten. In either case, it can't hurt to go through it again :)

However, I'd like to know something before I throw myself over the GF2 Course again: Is there an easy, fun way to learn scales and build speed? And by that, I don't mean just playing through the scale up and down hundreds of times with a metronome to keep up with. While that may be the easy way, it doesn't exactly sound like the most entertaining way to learn them. So is there another way to learn the scales?

Please help me. I'm really eager to learn how to play some real Rock, but my sloppy fingers and lack of knowledge are standing in the way, at the moment.
