Good advice. Learn the names of notes on fretboard. Learn to play up the neck (not as hard as it sounds).
Learning up the neck is really helped by knowing the basic theory.
@Pickle85 try using the pad of a finger to play A and don't worry about muting or anything overly technical yet. Using the pad to press the 3 strings is a good trick and it will also help down the line when you learn CAGED.
Nobody notices that small stuff and if you get serious down the line you can clean that up.
