Here's, or go directly to mami's guitar paintshop, radical brats design..
==========
btw, anyone knew what's the type of drum that Rina used on Coming Soon?
She didn't use her angelina (the pink one) , and the color of this drum is kinda gothic, I like it..

cs rina:

Wait, it's not Rina! It's Sadako playing drums!.. .lol.
Well, that's the drum I'm talking about..Yoroshiku,minna-san. .hail.

@jigoku Alright thanks :D Not sure if i should get it done on my BC Rich ASM1 or get another guitar(probably a Fender) first , then get it done on that guitar . .stars.

It's the same one used on "Scandal Nanka Buttobase" PV isn't it?
Browsing through Pearl's online catalog and I think this is it: http://www.pearlgakki.com/drum/pro_ds_carbonply.html#car

@sillentdx
Thanks, man..It helps. After seeing the PV again, yeah it's definitely..
Arigatou!
================

After see the SCANDAL vs Budokan news, and also as per information from SH member who attend the concert (@pacrimguru), it's confirmed that SCANDAL has a new gear, and definitely it's Squier!!

Squier Telecaster Blacktop with skull design, taken from SCANDAL screenshot thread (thanks to alrick)


Squier Jazz Bass? (thanks to macdyne73)

And as per info from pacrimguru, beside her painted Strat+Gretsch, Mami also use new guitar, but he didn't noticed the color..(if it's Maranello, I doubt it, cause she only use it on Hoshi No Furu Yoru Ni, Want You and Satisfaction (none of them on the setlist), but who knows?)..
Well, I spotted on Rina's blog pic..this is it?dunno..

I'll try to dig more info's..

I like blue color bass of Tomomi very much ^^

Hi, there is a web site that I happen to chance upon is scnadl4gear. Here is the link, I do not know if this might be helpful to you guys in updating this thread. But I have browse this site and I think there seems to be information on haruna's new signiture squier and mami's pink guitar.

http://scandal4gear.web.fc2.com/

I hope this helps you guys. And I do apologize for a re-post, if someone else has post about the site already. The site is written in japanese, so there will be a need top translate. And I do apologize as I do not understand japanese.

Hope this helps. And stay scandalous.

@bababong:
Ah, I've heard of the site before. Really nice, besides the fact that it's in Japanese.
I have not checked it out in a while and it's nice to see that it's pretty up to date.

I recall Mami playing what I thought was a Jazzmaster during the show, although I don't recall the color either and I'm 50/50 now on whether that pic you posted is the guitar I saw. I don't remember there being any design on it like that, and I'm pretty well-versed on Jazzmasters so I doubt I'd have made such an obvious mistake in thinking it was one at the show (the guitar above is JM-shaped, but is obviously neither a JM nor a Jaguar). In fact, I dunno what that guitar is in the pic - it looks like a JM body with three Strat or Mustang pickups. Probably not actually a Fender (or Squier), unless it's custom shop.

I'm really curious now to see it on the DVD; I'd forgotten about that guitar but after you mentioned her playing something new, I definitely remembered saying "Mami's playing a Jazzmaster!" out loud during the show.

@spacecadet:
I believe that the colour of Mami's Jazzmaster is that sunburst look.
Here's a screenshot I saved of when the JM first appeared. Ontama 2011 I think?

Thanks for the clue, when I'm googling into few japanese website, some guys said that she use the guitar on 'Pride' song while in Budokan..And Mami usually use Jazzmaster on 'Pride'..or maybe it's Mustang?..Is it Mami playing that guitar while playing 'Pride', spacecadet? I hope u could remember it, thanks for your help..
Actually, the guitar is custom shop, or as per Haruna and Tomomi gets from Squier, their own signature guitar&bass..Haruna and Tomo get them, so I assumed that Mami will get it too.hehe.

@Lexian
Actually,Jazzmaster first appearance is on AniUta 2011, on that picture is as exactly what u said..Ontama 2011..
Thanks to yoruichi.hehe. I mixed it up too..

Lexian wrote:@spacecadet:

You are probably right because I can't specifically remember it, but I didn't think it was sunburst. I thought it was some variation of white. A plain sunburst guitar would have seemed really out of place at that show. But I might be mixing up the guitar in the photo from Rina above and the sunburst Jazzmaster, and remembering them as the same guitar...

@lexian IN ontama 2011 she used her White 50th anniversary sticker strat for pride
It was here

And at music cube

she used the jazz master

I get Ontama and AniUta mixed up because of the similar event setting and outfits.

does Mami have a white strat with a black pickgaurd and rosewood fretboard?

Looks like an American Deluxe HSS from what I can tell; I think the pickguard is tort rather than black (it's easier to see at about 2:30).

A question, from someone who is *not* a beginner, but I don't really understand this. I was looking at Haruna's pedals, and she's got both a Fulltone OCD and a Carl Martin DC Drive hooked up in series, presumably to her Fender Twin Reverb amp (which is what I'm convinced she actually uses 99% of the time, when their contract with Shinos doesn't require otherwise).

Why would she have two overdrive pedals in series, connected to an amp that itself has pretty good overdrive?

I've seen some guitarists with some totally crazy pedal setups, but then they end up with a totally crazy sound. But Scandal's sound is pretty straightforward hard rock and she only really seems to use four pedals, two of which are OD, so I just don't really get it. I'm asking because I actually like her distorted sound and may try to replicate it once I get my new amp.

I've asked the same question before and people here say that it's a borrowed guitar.
Seeing that it hasn't been featured in magazine articles, concerts, etc. afterward.

Hmmmm but i have seen a a fully white strat with no stickers in one of the documentry s would it be one of her own use and she changed the pick gaurd . I think it was from the temptation box esy live documentry .

Went back and checked out where the white strat appeared. Yeah it's definitely a different guitar from the screenshot. It would take ~6months to go back to a guitar, that looks 2/3s different mind you, for the first time? Doubt it. Sticker strat came back after years and looks about the same from the naked eye. Besides the difference in white to turtle pickguard, the entire fretboard is different. Screenshot says redwood, documentary says maple.
Case closed.

4/18/2012 EDIT:
Gonna add the blog pic of Haru's new sparkly Tele here to avoid double postin'.

Nice share. A Jazzmaster/Strat hybrid? Interesting... Now waiting on specs...

Yayy! Thanks sillentdx!..This is what I finally looking for..Mami signature guitar definitely took from Jazzmaster, isn't it?..It's so hard to get the image, finally I knew how it looks..spacecadet & pacrimguru has confirm Mami's new guitar too, on few japanese website of Budokan's concert review they said Mami use this guitar on 'Pride', and now it's valid..
