Most people will agree with minor pentatonic. I think the major scale playing three notes on each string is also good for improving your reach. Example-

The roots (G) are marked by an asterisk.

e----(5---7-8...--
b-----5---7-8*---
g---4-5---7------
d---4-5*--7------
a-3---5---7------
E-3*--5---7------

in my opinion, any major or minor scale is good to start off with. eventually, your probably gonna learn tham all. so it doesn't really matter

Learn your minor pentatonic first, then move on to your major scale.
