Hi!  I'm a 1.5 out of 10 on my guitar skills.  I understand chords and keys and all of that.  I think my question is not properly worded.


As a relative newbie, why do i want to go through scales?  these are part of the early lessons.  when i was learning piano, i had the same problem.  I think knowing some context would help.  The issue is that lessons just start doing this stuff, and I just don't know the intent.


I don't want to brush off something important.  Any details to fill in would be helpful.
