Myself, I mainly use Hirojoshi, Hungarian Minor, Aeolian (Normal Minor), Diminished and Phrygian. the really wierd thing is that I've been playing guitar for about 4 years, and i still don't know the major scale! i really should get round to it, but I'm just too busy learning funky scales. Next up: Spanish, then Kumoi, after that I'll learn Major methinks

Yeah, Hirajoshi is a great scale. Jason Becker and Marty Friedman use it extensively.
I use the Harmonic Minor (Spanish scale) a ton as well

yeah, Hirojoshi is great 
BTW, when I said "spanish" I meant the 8 tone spanish scale. I already know Harmonic Minor and Major, but I prefer the sound of Hungarian Minor ( more Eygiptian than arabic, if you catch my drift.)

I,m thinking it is better if we speak about scale changes which fit perfest except scale swe like to play.
I think its more important the changes between the harmonic minor and the dimished, for example except the scales that are used.

I know my scales,but I find it more practical to come up with my own when needed,since scales like Hirajoshi(*or however you spell it)are based on pentatonic arpeggios,as in ninja,I think(since I don't know how to play the song)it's a G minor add9 plus a b6 or so I believe,so it's just a fragment of an aeolian scale,or so I believe and well,,

Spanish Gypsy, Hindu, Hungarian Gypsy, and Hungarian Gypsy Persian are fun scales.
