- Hail traveler! Have you seen beyond the mountains? There be rumors of dragons in this land. I don't much believe in what I haven't seen, but I always try to ask when fellows like yourself breeze through town. Your type seems to have plenty of stories to tell. So, please, let me buy you a round and you can tell me about them dragons.

![Have Squier PEAKED? | Paranormal Series Rascal HH Bass [Review/Demo]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/myYICrLG1Ik/mqdefault.jpg)
Do we want a full video of the T Bird before I get rid of it?
Yes definitely 👍🏻
I'd love to hear your take on the tbird! I've played quite a few of them, but the one I bought in 2010 is the only one I played I really liked, and I absolutely love it, it's my main squeeze.
Yup
Yes
Yup.
Yup: the bridge pick-up is killer, absolutely non-traditional Fender. This is a LONG bass -the short scale for players who don't want to be seen playing a short scale(!) I am an old fart traditional player and I am digging this big-time; can't wait to play this with my blues rock guitar friend. This is now being offered with a red finish on the Fender/Squire site. BTW: thank you for playing classic licks for tone reference.
This bass is worth every penny you spend on it. I got the pink one three days ago, it's my first Squier and it did not disappoint me at all. This bass is worth it for the back pickup. The shell pink looks great. Plays great too.
Just curious, did you buy from Fender or from a dealer?
Enjoying your channel, thanks!!
Thanks Danny! Love your stuff as well!
You would never break the chain (never break the chain) .... oh my god i love this song. Bass sounds great ! thank you AMP :)
Love you dude!
Love you too dude!
Great stuff! Loved the run-down on the IMPORTANT things!
Wonderful demo! What an awesome gift! That Shell Pink is DOPE, too!
I wish I received gifts like this! It's been on my radar for a while now. Beautiful sound!
This is the best short scale bass on the market. I say this without pause. Fender flat out made a classic bass with this Squire. They can just keep putting out new color variations and maybe even do a Fender CuNiFe version of it. But it's awesome. Bought it as soon as it came out (I have it in green).
Love that Bass! Gorgeous in Shell Pink!
Off to try one today, best video yet
Great review! I've been wanting Squier to reissue the Starcaster, but everyone has been hyping these Rascals up so I might need to snag one myself. Also 2:09 was my favorite part of the video XD
I’m glad Taco is never unappreciated.
But yes, they need to bring back the Starcaster. I’m still kicking myself all the time for not buying one back in 2018 for $600 when I had the chance. That truly was the one that got away.
Hey man thanks for your review and I thought it was well done and worthwhile. Good comparison to Gibson. I will be on the lookout for you in the future.🤙✌️👊
I bought that exact bass (Pink). Absolutely love it!
Props to Lobster and Bully!! What a thoughtful gift! All you guys are doing with these demo videos is increasing my GAS intensity for this one. Still not sure if I like the shell pink or the sparkle greenish one Lobster has better?!
The pink is very light. It almost comes across as white in some of the photos I’ve done. The green seems much bolder. Not sure if that helps your decision or not, but thanks for watching all the same!
I get that same thing in my head sometimes bud, this is a great video by the way.
God, I gotta get my hands on this at some point. What an interesting and good sounding bass.
I wanted one when I first saw the green one - but now I want the pink one! 👍🏽
This bass reminds me of sonic youth and that’s how I’m using it. Also try and change the pots to a full size cts it brings it to life a bit more. I’ve already modded mine to a push/pull volume/tone and a kill switch. It’s a noise making rocking machine! Love it!
What value pots did you use, and what is in there stock?
@@57precision no readings on the Chinese pots to be honest I believe 250k I replaced mine with 250k CTS I pots split coil so down is just a volume and up is the tone. I barely use the tone on this but options are always good. I also replace the jack the cheap Chinese ones tend to fail after awhile. I may try 500k to brighten things up a bit later just to see what happens also got a 8mm kill switch where the tone pot was.
really interested in this one. I especially like it in the sherwood green. may consider selling my Peavy axcelerator to pick this up.
I love your channel man. I just bought this bass cuz I watch the lobster and bully the kid now you … I have 5 basses but I had to buy this one! God knows when fender will stop making these, they could even go up on price. I checked a few stores and they are all sold out! I had to order online, let’s hope it will arrive soon now!
Ordered mine today.
I’ve got Sherwood Green one on order,I’m super excited,I’ve always wanted a T Bird but just hate the ergonomics of them and the price,The Rascals are very hard to get hold of here in the UK though.so nice of Lobster and Bully to get that to you 👏👏❤️
I played one at the store and went back the next week for it. 3 good sounds in one comfortable instrument. For mud bucker expertise see Jack Bruce, Cream and Tony Williams Lifetime, and Felix Papallardi, Mountain. Also, Mike Watt, both EB3 and Fender Tele bass.
Happy Birthday there dude guy. I'm thinkin of getting the green one!
Thanks! I think the green looks great!
I do want one of these they sound great and are one of the nicer short scales I've played but I'm not in a rush
great tone!!!!
Damn, i would happily play some vulfpeck songs with only that bridge pickup
I'm thinking about getting one in Sherwood green.
Your the first one I've seen pluck the neck pickup....... naturally the hand goes toward the bridge pickup....... tempted to get one.... 800 CAD.
Hot damn that sounds great…if I hadn’t already snagged an Epiphone Embassy to scratch this particular itch…Seems like this is the no-brainer choice for this sorta vibe.
The Embassy would definitely have been my second choice and I was seriously considering it before I got the Rascal.
I bought the shell pink and it arrived today.
Almost perfectly in tune out of the box. Setup is decent too.
Great bass for my stumpy little guitarists fingers.
The tones are excellent and no hum from the neighbours airconditioner.
Excellent! Glad you're loving it!
Where did you get yours from? I’ve been looking for a pink version but can’t find one online.
@@jackdavies8317 From Fender directly. Its a web exclusive in Australia and was cheaper than the green & black thanks to their year end discount.
🤘🏼
Not the rascal. But I picked up a squire jazz that blows the two fender MIM jazz basses I've owned previously. Not sure what's going on over at fender. But they better get it together because rn squire is eating their lunch 😊
Great sounding bass for the money. I dig this whole new paranormal series. Just holding out till they do a Performer, Musiclander or (god forbid) Katana...
Fingers crossed for a Performer!
A Squier Branded, MIJ Performer? Cmon, Fender, TAKE MY MONEY!
Yes to all of those
I would say that the Rascal sounds much better than the Thunderbird, the T-Bird sounded to me quite nasal in comparison, while the Rascal has the old "mudbucker" sound, not unlike the 70's Tele basses, the Gibson EB-0/1/3s or the 70's Guild basses with the "sludgebucker" pickups. I usually tend to like more that kind of sound than the typical thin, nasal sound of more modern basses or even the classic P-Bass kind of sound, that's why i have an older Squier VM Precision TB, that is basically a 70's Telecaster bass reissue and i love it, with flatwounds or tapewounds, it sounds very upright-like. So i guess that this one would sound very similar with that kind of strings.
I intend to get one of these, simply because unless I go high end US made, I can’t get a 21st fret. Not that I’m above buying another Warmoth neck, but still…why if I don’t have to?
Fender. Showing Gibson how it's done since 1946.👍
T bird sounds way better though. More Growl and clarity.
Nice. Perfect for beginner's 1st bass. Great tones.
What a privilege it would be to have this as your first bass!
Yeah saying this is a "beginner's bass" is a slap in the bass... i mean face 😅
@ampthebassplayer You noted, as other have, playing low on the bridge due to it being positioned relatively high up on the body. Does that result in the string tension feeling more like a standard bass than other short scales, such the Mustang?
It feels like a standard scale as far as tension goes to me, but that could be string gauge as much as it is scale length.
Thank you for playing bass lines instead of sounding like a guitar player forced to review a bass. Now I've gotta get one of these.........
How did you get a pink one. I need a pink one sell it to me
Lol I'm literally watching this video to try to decide whether or not I should trade my Thunderbird in for one of these
Yo is that a Serek in the background?
I have the Newport…… but…… I’m wondering if I made a mistake….. this ticks way more boxes
GAS intensifies…
Did, our newport has the weird phase issue?
Now I'm wondering how this baby would sound like with Joyo double thruster and monomyth
Might have to do a livestream where we try out a bunch of stuff in real time.
what's the bassline played at 4:37? i know i know it, it's right there, but every time i reach for the words they get further away.
That bass line is from “Would?” by Alice In Chains
0:13 What is the name of the song?
Anyone know the complete track listing?
Between this and the Epiphone EB-3 which one would you recommend? (I mostly play black metal and Metallica stuff)
I’d say neither. A Jazz bass would be better for those styles of music.
@@ampthebassplayer I thought more about it and I decided I'd buy a B.C. Rich Warlock One (Chinese entry model) and replace the pickup with an EMG GZR
I'd agree it is more Gibson sounding, but that t bird slays it pound for pound, in my opinion. Think an EB is a much more fair comparison
I’ll agree that it sounds cool, but it almost doesn’t matter when it’s such an annoyance to play.
@@ampthebassplayer is that a Gibson or Epiphone? I found the Epiphones I've had to be much less pleasant to play. If it is a Gibson, you'll really dislike the Epiphones in my opinion
It’s an Epiphone, but rest assured I’ve been just as disappointed by Gibsons.
Got it yesterday, can’t put it down, help! 😅
You’re on your own! 😉
I might sell my Thunderbird to get one.....hmmmmmm
whats the first line he played? so familiar
oh its fleetwood mac
Fleetwood Mac in the beginning?
yes the chain
Flats?!
That streaky laurel fretboard looks hideous, but the bass itself sounds great
Not short scale , medium scale
Medium is 32-35 this is 30 inches
@@gupster24 I own on and I’ll tell you string through body only medium scale strings fit

You will miss the T-bird I bet you buy another one 😂😂
Doubt
extreme doubt, the damn thing is a hog
Nothing says I'M CHEAP! Like embossing Square on the pickup covers.
That's a deal breaker for me.
it's fine dork
Hell yeah fart all the time
