I started reading your post & my first thought was to suggest you just move ahead to the rock style course. Then, I got to this part!

Yes! If you already know all the material in GF 1 & 2, then start in rock 1! Especially since it seems to more closely match your musical goals.

[p]Of your list, unfortunately, publishers have only offered GT the Stones. But there are plenty of Stones songs to work through. If you are inpsired by that, then learn their tunes!

But if someone said what chords are you playing i would struggle to name all of them even though I can finger them!

[p]If you haven't yet, then learn all the notes on the fretboard now. Then you'll know how to locate root notes of chords.

Next, I have an entire series of tutorials on triads & inversions that will show you all major & minor chords are formed all over the fretboard.

It's a lot of work but it's very fundamental to playing any major or minor chord voicing all over the guitar.

So I need to know what chords I am playing and what scales, instead of just watching YouTube videos, and reading tabs, I realize I need to understand more about what I am playing, and realise a need to learn the caged system too

I have 2 separate in depth tutorials on CAGED, one aimed at rhythm guitar, the other at lead guitar.

Bottom line, branch out! Look around the site. Look at other instructor directories. There is so much incredible content on GT. Please ask if you have more questions. Best of success!
