Well in this forum I've seen it go both ways, some say scales, some say chord based, and some say a combo of both.
I would say know your scales yes, but also know what makes up the chords that you wanna play. Knowing the notes on the chords can be trully invaluable.
This may be wrong, but then again Im not the best at explaining this, but to me I would at playing in a couple of ways... one: I play chords (this includes, open chords, barre chords, power chords, etc.) two: solo's anything outside of chords but can include chords working in some form of a scale.
Ok that was confusing: easier... guitar playing to me is either solo'ing, chording, or fingering. Fingering = solo'ing and chording mixed. Solo'ing = Chording and fingering mixed and Chording = well chording lol used to build solo's and fingering.
Yeah someone else would probably be better at explaining all that. But when I think of style I think of strum type, scale type, and how you make effects on your amp (settings).
