Yesterday 22.30, the 31th December, I received an email from my music shop. New date of possible arrival... 28th November 2025... My New Year Eve was totally fucked... And maybe in September or October, Squier company will tell to my music shop, we don't built this limited edition... But I will wait, I hope it will be ok. It will be my gift for my 50th birthday and it will be in July, the 4th. I can wait, but my feeling is not good. So, I hope to be lucky... One day she will be mine...Oh yes! One day, she will be mine...
I bought one on Saturday. I went into the shop with a trade-in thinking about buying an Epiphone Les Paul something or other. I played about 10 different ones, including a Slash variant, new and used, including a couple of the higher end ones, and just didn't fall in love with any of them. They were fine, but none of them spoke to me. Then I spent a good half hour with one of these and was sold. The sound, the look, the playability, all feel like they were made for me.
Thats awesome you could try so many options side by side and the Troublemaker came out on top. I know what you mean about it 'speaking' to you... I couldnt get it out of my mind when I first seen the black one, it is a beauty to look at (and play) enjoy it mate!
There's been so many cool designs and mashups in the Paranormal series over the years, there was a Jazz Tele and a really cool whiteguard strat from the.. I think Parallel universe? series that were just so beautifully done.
@@carsandguitarsseems to be where fender (well via Squier) can have a bit of fun without pissing off the purists. Although the parallel universe and alternate reality lines they did under fender were cool as well, it’s only the paranormal squiers that they have kept doing. Briefly had an alternate reality meteora, I liked that it was a brand new shape, glad to see they added it to the regular production range.
I don't need this guitar at all, I have my Epi SG that rocks and getting a gorgeous Gretsch next month. But the more I look at this one, in black finish in particular, the more I'm thinking about actually getting it. And the very reasonable price doesn't help to stop me from doing that.
I was the same mate, I knew I didn't need it, but I couldn't stop thinking about it... it's just gorgeous. the fact it plays and sounds amazing is a bonus as well.
had a Trouble maker Goldtop for one month This thing rips live i run it thru a Boss Katana MK 2 Head , with a boss Metal zone 2 waza , BossChours , just did after concert jam with Rap Group Funkdoobiest got so many compliments of the sound and the SquireTele goldtop
I just commanded and payed for this beautiful guitar... Your Smashing's medley with her touch my brain and my heart. I hope she will be mine soon...

Got a gold one. I can't stop playing it!
I’ve had trouble (pun intended) putting mine down as well, I love when a particular guitar inspires you to play.
Please make a video on your pedal and amp set up.
I’ve always loved the paranormal series but my Gibson gothic explorer trumps all! Great vid mate, keep em coming please 🙏🏻
Glad you're enjoying it mate!
The paranormal series is really cool, I've had two of the super sonics from the range and they were decent guitars for the money.

@@JasonWharton82 100% mate, they found the perfect balance.
Sounds awesome man. What pedals are you running through around 5:25?
cheers mate, it's just a modulated delay pedal and i'm doing swells with the volume knob.
Aztec Gold is preordered.

Nice guitar, congratz..👍
She’s a beauty!
I really like the Aztec Gold one, but I already have a number of T style and LP style guitars. If I decided to get one, I’d have to sell something.

I'm sitting here playing mine right now! still really enjoying it, glad so many other people are as well
the single coil options didn't sound too bad
I was really surprised as well and not just because I didn't even know it had the coil split haha
the Guitaristas channel, he removed this option. Then had a hard time wiring and molding this "Troublemaker"!
It was Hilarious 😅
Just by playing Drown you've sold me on this
Such an underrated riff!
Intonation sounds a bit off. I guess it's to be expected straight from the factory, but beautiful looking piece of gear.
You are correct, I did film a little clip (but forgot to use it) guitar was perfectly in tune out the box but the A string intonation is SLIGHTLY off
