They need to get that fiesta red xii out everywhere, that thing would sell, also kinda wished the rascals all had the mint guard instead of all the different ones, can’t help thinking the black one would look better with mint guard!

For some reason the FR XII doesn't show up for me when I set my preferred locale to the United States. What am I doing wrong?

I had the same issue - you gotta pick the 'Americas' region at the bottom

Set region to "Americas", then click "Squier", then click "Shop All Squier Guitars" on the dropdown. If you just go straight to the Paranormal Series they'll only show what's currently available.
I'm sure some Fender dealer in '64 looked at the new Duo-Sonic II and thought, "That's not a Duo-Sonic. That's a Mustang".

Yeah, I feel like their categories on the non-US sites aren't set up correctly. As an IT guy I'd like to heartily slap their webmaster with a fish.

If that Esquire is routed for two pickups, I’m going to have a lot of fun with one of those blue sparkle ones.
These new color leaks are exciting and all but I’m still desperate for some word on the FSR matching headstock XII I’m praying will exist

Apparently the JMXII is just routed for what it needs. Somebody on Reddit got one and posted the guts.

I want a Rascal Bass, but not in 30" scale.
Silly Rabbit, don't you know scooped mids are for kids?
