Description
The Squier Paranormal Rascal Bass HH is a groundbreaking axe that pays homage to the iconic Fender bass models of the 1960s. Combining the best features from several cult classics, this bass redefines the boundaries of design and delivers an unrivaled playing experience. If you're the type of player who loves whacky, retro guitars and rich, thumpin' tones, you'll love the new-and-improved Rascal bass.
Drawing inspiration from the Fender Bass VI, the Paranormal Rascal Bass HH features an offset body shape that offers exceptional comfort and balance. Old-school Fender enthusiasts will also love its headstock, borrowed from the Fender Coronado Bass, which adds a touch of vintage charm to its sleek appearance.
That's not where this hot-rodded Squier's vintage-inspired design ends, though - its Mustang-style string-through-body bridge has a timeless look and ensures optimal resonance and sustain. Additionally, its dual wide-range humbuckers deliver a warm, full-bodied punch that sounds right at home when laying down classic rock riffs and bouncin' R&B fills. Don't let that fool you, though. Its 3-way pickup selector, master volume knob, and tone control give it ample sonic versatility to easily blend into any performance setting.
But that's not all - the Paranormal Rascal Bass HH goes above and beyond to provide an exceptional playing experience. Its 30" scale length offers a shorter, more manageable reach, making it a breeze to navigate the fretboard. Bassists will also appreciate its slim and comfortable "C" shaped maple neck, 9.5" radius laurel fingerboard, 21 narrow tall frets, and vintage-style tuners.
With its undeniably cool '60s-inspired design, the Squier Paranormal Rascal Bass HH offers something for all players, whether you're a vetted pro or an aspiring bassist. Please reach out if you have any questions about this fantastic short-scale electric bass!
