[selowitch]

This Invalid Link Removed has me pretty excited.

you should be! I'm hoping to see a longer scale model at that price.

Medium scale would be cool. Made in China suggests good build quality.

There's a thread with a bit more detail: Leak? Squier Paranormal Rascal Bass HH

@LowEndLobster even has one coming in for review soon.

 

[Killing Floor]

I love the look. Especially the headstock. Love that in green.

Hopefully this bass possible using the new EB Cobalt flat short scale bass string without issue.

due to bridge placement I've heard confirmation the feel is that of a full scale. mod to old mudbuckers for me lol

 

[selowitch]

I definitely found the bridge placement on the MIM Rascal to be less than ideal.

Matching headstock! **WALLET ALERT**

I guess this will depend on whether they can handle being strung through the body without unravelling and also whether they are long enough for through body.

My guess would be no and no. But I might be wrong of course.

sigh... wish they came in 5 string

Yet another amazing cool bass Fender could sell me in a heartbeat...

..if they'd make one LEFT HANDED.

Dextrocentric, so dead to me.

I'm a big short scale fan, not at all a bad price IMO, I def will be adding this to the list lol. Can't wait to see some videos on this beauty!

It looks great!

That’s cool. I did something similar and put 2 Kent Armstrong mm pickups in my Rascal. I wish I still had pics of the monstrosity I created. Fender executed the look better with their pickups. I’m sure it will sound better without the lipstick pickups of the older Rascal.

I never understand this comment, yet its on every thread. Just buy one and rock it. If you need anything lower than E play an octave up. Or switch to your 5 on the rack.

I do believe @bigthemat are means he love Rascal look but in 5 string option.

For me, i wish this Rascal HH has 5 string version in Multiscale design with 30-33 scale. All about the Rascal Look.... hahaha

Here’s an Andertons video about the Paranormal Series that mentions this bass.
