OK, good deal!
[QUOTE=greyghoast17] I can play scales & arpeggios fast and I can Improvise fast, but I'd like to put more musicality into what I'm doing. I'll practice the scales slower some and call out the notes more often to see how that goes.
Excellent! Sounds like you have the raw physical skills under your command. In order to make your shredding more musical (as you so precisely put it!) check out the rest of that tutorial.

It will show you how to think about how to use "this chunk" of the scale to play over "the first chord", then "that chunk" of the scale to play over "the next chord". After you build a vocabulary of licks that you already know work over certain chords and progressions, then you are on your way to musicality. :)
The others in the series might help, too.
