I like to play in a major key, but base my patterns around the six (Ex. 6 4 5) and play a solo out of the Aeolian mode, or Minor scale.

As for tempo, usually around 150.

Also, about being a theory geek; Me and my guitar teacher think the following terms are hilarious: Pseudo-tuned, Hypotenuse Scale, Optimal Tuning Conditions, Communist scale. Hypotenuse scale especially. You have no idea.
