Scales are fine. Arpeggios are probably more useful. Learn chords as clusters of motes, not "shapes." When you realize a G chord is anywhere you can play a G,B, and D note (and you know where all the G,B, and D notes are) the fretboard becomes your playground.
Yup.

You can memorize the dictionary, but it does no good if you've nothing to say...
