I've been playing guitar for about 6 years now I guess. I've stopped using tabs to learn songs for the most part, because I only really learn songs when I get bored and decide to figure it out for myself.
If you'd really like to get better, I suggest playing with other people. Learning songs together will (hopefully) give you a better sense of timing. It'll probably help you develop your improvisation and get you more comfortable playing around people which is always a plus. Learning different finger picking styles is always good.
Lately I've been playing more acoustic than electric, and have been having a lot of fun playing Magic Bus by The Who.

Yeah, I've wanted to get a new acoustic guitar for a long time now (my current acoustic is about fifty years old :l), but I wanna get a new electric guitar, too, considering the fact that Squier is just... Horrible.
As for playing with other people and learning different finger picking styles, I'm in a guitar class at school, and the teacher teaches classical guitar, so we're playing in ensembles and picking in bizarre patterns very often. He's a very good teacher, though. He taught me how to play Malaguena, if anyone has ever heard of it, so he's pretty sick.
Hey, I have a Squier Stratocaster too :/
Luckily I have an FX box.
Been playing since September maybe? My guitar teacher gets me to learn songs by bands I like. I'm pretty proud of the fact that I learned how to play Cross the Breeze by Sonic Youth in full. SY and their fucken weird tunings and shit.

I usually just mess around with it, but I've learned how to play either the main riff or the entire song for a bunch of pop/mainstream songs lately.
And yeah, shit was a $250 pack, with guitar,amp, tuner, picks, etc. In short, all of my equipment sucks, but I still love it.

What about
DROP MUTHAFUCKIN' A?!?!?!!
I'm not sure there's a single song that uses this tuning... EVER...
BUT IT'S AWESOME
The strings get all floppy and loose and shit, and it barely makes a sound, but it's SO METAL

Learn to play Dream Theater.
Do it, motherfucker.
Do it, motherfucker.
I would...
But I haven't heard any Dream Theater. Any good songs to reccomend?
I've been meaning to listen to 'em for a while now, I just never got the chance. :l

Learn some Modest Mouse. I don't play guitar, but their songs don't sound too difficult.
Try learning 'Metropolis, Pt. 1.'
It's hard but it's such a good song.

I'm not quite sure; I haven't tried learning any Rammstein songs. I think Du Hast is played in drop C, and Keine Lust in drop D, though...

I'm a moderate fan of the Beatles, but by the time I had noticed this thread, most of the suggestions I had in mind had already been said, so, just to provide something different from the rest, perhaps try looking into learning "Peace Train" by Cat Stevens on your acoustic guitar.

Lol, troll faster, friend-o.

Ooh, I actually like Cat Stevens. I should try learning Cats in the Cradle, now that I think about it... :/ Also, I would learn it on my acoustic, but my acoustic is a sack of crap that's practically withered and rotting with twenty year old strings...
So I think it's an actual health hazard to play on my acoustic. :l
