You can (in my oh-so-very humple opinion, and trust me I'm very, very humble indeed in these parts...) get a surprising amount of mileage out of a few licks by just kind of echoing what the singer has been doing and kind of tweaking the timing a bit to create some kind of conversational feel.

places I know where you can get some fantastic tips :
Andrew Wasson on youtube:
10, 12, 13 (4th string)
10, 12, 13 (3rd string)
10, 12, 13 (2nd string)
10, 11, 13 (1st string) (NOTE THE 11!)
Then back down again. You can do it very fast. It's an approximation of the melodic minor. At the bottom of that scale again you have to finish off by sliding down one more semitone, back onto the B. The whole run should be done very fast, up and down once, within the time the B dominant chord is playing. It's a great effect.

Just resolve it back to the root, 3rd or b7 to finish.
Clarky tip - play min Pentatonic up 2 frets for Myxolydian - you already know the fingering and licks !

TBH use all the scales you like but it still sounds like poodlepoodlepoodlepoodlepoodle to 90% of punters. They will, however, remember the solo where you used a wah ( not if you use a wah on everything, of course), the solo where you did tapping, the solo where you did crazy tremolo picking, the one with the rockabilly licks, the one where you used a slide,etc,etc.
All to be done with the best possible taste of course...

Does that get me fired from a guitar forum?
:-O
Not fired. But you do have to record and let us all hear exactly what you mean........

All true.
I'm dreading the day another guitarist come up to me at a gig and says "you really shoud learn a second scale, all your solos are the same.."
