Hey all I've gotten pretty confident after learning/memorizing the Cmaj scale, as many songs are included in it. What is the logical, 2nd most common scale to learn after the Cmaj? Thanks very much!
In the key of C you have 7 different scales, not including Pentatonic scales:
CMaj: CDEFGAB
D Dorian: DEFGABC
E Phrygian: EFGABCD
F Lydian: FGABCDE
G Mixolydian: GABCDEF
A Aeolian: (Natural Minor) ABCDEFG
B Locrian: BCDEFGA
It's good to practice different chord progressions in the key of C using these scales, for example, in the key of C you could play FMa to Gma and your scale source would be: F Lydian to G Mixolydian because you ar playing a IV-V progression and the Lydian scale is the IV scale and G Mixolydian is the V scale.
Chords in the Key of C are: CMA DMi EMi FMA GMA AMi Bdim This rule goes for every key, exept there are sharps and flats for the rest of the key signatures. Hope this helps.

I actually have that book already! Thanks to all for their help. I'm working on the F maj scale.
