Squier Paranomal Guitars

About Squier Paranormal guitars

Squier Paranormal guitars occupy the experimental corner of the Squier range, combining familiar Fender ingredients in ways you would not normally expect. Rather than recreating one historic instrument, the series mixes body shapes, pickup configurations, hardware and styling cues from different eras to create something entirely new.

Models have included reverse-body offsets, thinline designs and unconventional hybrids such as the Custom Nashville Stratocaster, which combines a Stratocaster body with Telecaster pickups and hardware. Other designs introduce features such as humbuckers, coil splitting, short scale lengths and vintage-style tremolos, giving each Paranormal guitar its own playing experience.

The range sits apart from Squier’s more traditional Affinity and Classic Vibe instruments. It is aimed at adventurous players, collectors and anyone who wants recognisable Fender DNA without choosing another conventional Stratocaster or Telecaster. Comfortable neck profiles and player-friendly specifications also make these guitars approachable for newer musicians.

Although the Paranormal Series is not closely associated with one famous artist, its unusual offsets and retro styling are naturally suited to indie, alternative, punk, surf and experimental players. For distinctive looks, versatile sounds and excellent value, few guitar ranges offer quite as much personality.
