The B♭ minor pentatonic scale
The minor pentatonic is the most used soloing scale on guitar. Its five notes fit in simple two-notes-per-string boxes, and it works over minor chords and over blues and rock progressions in the same key.
Its relative major is D♭ major pentatonic, which uses the same notes starting from D♭.
