Start off learning the notes along the low E string. When you know the notes on this string you will know the notes along the high E string because they are exactly the same. Then you can start learning the notes on the A string and the B string. I learnt in this order because the root notes of the major and minor chords are on the low E, A, B and high E strings.
The thing to remember is the notes on the next string down will be in the same order but just 5 frets different if you know what i mean.
Anyway. Its not as important to remember all the notes. Knowing the notes does help you find where a scale may start or where you should play a chord but once you have that its all about remembering the shaps and all the "gaps" between the notes.
By virtue of their electrical properties, tubes generate a special waveform when they're saturated, which is why tube engineering has tremendous tonal advantages over solid state or DSP solutions, particularly for crunch and lead sounds. Tubes enter the saturation zone gradually or softly, which lends tube-driven tone its trademark yet totally unique character.
