I would start learning classical, but if you want rock that will improve your skills and your hearing, try learning any song by Muse.
I would go to a shop and by a book of all the guitar scales their is, or go to a library and photo copy several pages, put them up on your wall (by your pc) and make sure you practise them 30 mins each day.
Vouch this. learn classical theory, classical technique, (both through an accredited teacher) practice scales and you'll be doing things these "100% improvise" or tab scrubs only dream of.
