Ionian Mode (major scale)
Use the ionian mode over the major 7 chord , major triad, power chord, or chords within the same key. Use A ionian over an A major 7 chord, A major triad, A power chord, or chords in the key of A major.
Now here's the thing, you won't find alot of major scales being played in rock and metal music, but you will find a use for them. And remember alot of the major scale modes that are based off of it are played alot. So you really should take the time to really learn these modes. Trust me it will surely pay off in the end. I remember when i first learned all of this stuff, i couldn't believe how much it improved not only my guitar playing, but my composition skills improved 100%.
