I only recognize the Boss Digital Delay...

i want to copy mami's pedal board...but i still don't have money to buy anything on her pedal board

i think the smaller blue pedal is a BEHRINGER PH-9 PHASER PEDAL

SomethingWild · « **Reply #41 on:** May 10, 2010, 02:56:29 PM »

^makes sense, since there's some phaser in Shoujo S.

You could also go the easy/cheaper route and copy this set-up from the old days:

Boss OD-3 and CE-3 from what i can tell.

Marshall amps.... *shudder*

Ye I found a company in the Uk that makes flightcase pedalboard bases that look a heck of a lot like Mami's newer pedalboard. Not identical but very similar, and a good design. I'm going to order myself some when I get a collection of pedals built up, only got the Boss DS-1 at the moment

There is a sale of DSL100 amps at a nearby guitar store

I'm kinda tempted, but luckily I don't really need it

Here's a pic from a magazine which actually names Mami's pedals:

Thanks to lambchopsuey!

edit: Boss OC3 octaver... I don't think I ever noticed the use of an octaver in any Scandal songs.

Carl Martin Hydra Boost... I use my Boss EQ-7 for that.

In the end, we're all better off getting our own unique sound. Mami's set-up is undergoing changes and a lot of pedals are very similar anyway

Still, it's fun to analyze what she uses haha.

i was fascinated by mami's black guitar with the custom paint job on it

and i searched internet to find out who built or painted it so i found these links:

http://gallery.radical-brats.com/?eid=1255155
http://www.radical-brats.com/info.html

i think they are the people who painted mami's guitar(i can't understand japanese so i don't know what they are saying on the page)

here are some pics on the link:

it's a Fender American Standard Stratocaster HSS
i think they changed the pickguard and the pickups on it...

Excellent find!! To be honest, I disliked the paint scheme, until I saw the guitar being used in the new PV. It looks great.

The website doesn't mention any interesting new info. Just that there's only one of these guitars in the world haha. But not for long, now that we have detailed pics and can replicate it

Btw, I had no idea fat strats are routed to fit a humbucker in the neck position!

Here are the same pics, but bigger:

Love the maple neck

Mami's guitars are so stylish. Love both the one with stickers and especially this new one!

Rina's pink drums are really nice, I'm surprised she needs so many cymbals.

And... I feel like hunting for a pearloid pickguard to replace my tortoiseshell one in my Fender Jazz Bass now! Although I feel it'd just look odd with a 3TSB. =p

I've noticed Haruna likes to use guitars with a maple fretboard. I'd love to try one of those one day; its probably a lot easier to care for than rosewood, right?

p.s. Anyone know what effects Tomomi/Haruna uses? Especially Tomomi =)

SomethingWild · « **Reply #49 on:** June 10, 2010, 11:02:18 PM »

^Welcome!

I'd say rosewood is easier to take care of, because maple gets dirty more easily. Or at least, it looks dirtier faster.
Maple has a brighter sound than rosewood. I love maple fretboards myself

Effects Tomomi uses? Hmm.. none?

I don't know, but I never noticed any.

ongty · « **Reply #50 on:** June 10, 2010, 11:12:39 PM »

Well I was more concerned about the humidity where I stay, always around 70-100%.
Rosewood gets moldy real fast here, so I have to keep it oiled up to prevent that. Maple is lacquered... so not a problem here for that...

I was curious about their effects... cos I saw in this picture... Tomomi and Haruna look like they have pedalboards too. =)

Then again I know almost nothing about pedals... never had to use one... so...

SomethingWild · « **Reply #51 on:** June 11, 2010, 01:42:28 PM »

Too bad the pic is kinda small. My guess is that the white pedal on all the girl's board is the Boss TU-2 Chromatic Tuner. It could also be a Boss NS-2 Noise Suppressor, but I think the tuner is more likely, since that's what Mami uses as well. No idea about the other stuff though

ongty · « **Reply #52 on:** June 15, 2010, 06:19:11 PM »

Rina posted a different shot of her drums on their blog.

Edit: Tomomi also has some of her basses posted awhile back =o

Pink precision bass? Never seen her use it.

I didn't check all the possible threads but you seem to have missed this:

Mami blogged about this Gretsch White Falcon being the most expensive thing she ever bought in her life.
I can't find a way to link to that post directly but if you filter their blog to only show her posts, it'll (currently) be on the third page. Or use the calendar. The post is dated 2010-08-06. It doesn't have any other pics or specs of the guitar.
After reading that, I got curious and tried to find out what it costs. Looks like online shops in Japan have you fork over at least 370000 Yen for it.

SomethingWild · « **Reply #57 on:** October 16, 2010, 06:00:19 PM »

^Nice find!

Yeah those Gretsch guitars go for big money. In the US they start at around 3000 dollar.

Pretty interesting that Mami is into these types of guitars. Pretty different from her regular stratocaster.

basti04 · « **Reply #58 on:** October 17, 2010, 11:04:53 AM »

Cool Guitar!I Would Love to see Mami use that during live performances.but i don't know if it would fit for some of their songs...

the gretsch guitar website said that it is "THE MOST BEAUTIFUL GUITAR MADE!"....you could get the most beautiful guitar made for over $4000

TheBritishGentlyMan · « **Reply #59 on:** October 17, 2010, 11:15:22 PM »

that guitar is absolutely gorgeous!!! Just like Mami!
