Get a metronome, practice scales at whatever beat you can do comfortably with good tone and no mistakes, then move up about 5 bpm.

Do this 15 minutes a day for two months, and you will see significant improvements.

well, you should already have a metromone, but what the rippa said is the best way to do it.

All scales and all arrpegios too. Not just you're major and minor scales. I had this old jazz guy that played with charlie parker and miles and everyone like that tell me that it's a good idea to practice your scales slowly and deliberatly and not just fast too. That's why I usually alternate and make sure I play some scales fast one day and some just slow in perfect technique and really deliberately.

And masturbating helps with the picking hand speed.

well... okay lol just practice the parts slowly and accurate... speed comes with time and practice. It helped me to break each part up and practice them sepretly to get each down all the way

If I drank that much coffee I would be useless as a musician. I'm already kind of high strung.
