Squier Paranormal Cabronita Telecaster Thinline Lake Placid Blue
Thinline Telecaster electric guitar from the Squier Paranormal Series
The Squier Paranormal Cabronita Telecaster Thinline presents itself as a rather unorthodox Tele with unusual features. Based on the basic construction of the Thinline Tele with poplar body and resonance chamber, the instrument expands the classic design from 1950 with a versatile sound palette. For this purpose two Fender Designed Jazzmaster Alnico Single Coils are available, which have a straight electronics with Master Volume and Master Tone control. For a classic Tele feel, the traditionally crafted maple neck features 22 Narrow Tall frets and a slim 'C' profile. In addition, the Fender Squier Paranormal Cabronita Telecaster Thinline features a fixed hardtail bridge with resonant string routing through the body and vintage-style tuners.

Squier Paranormal Cabronita Telecaster Thinline Lake Placid Blue
Excellent guitar. The tuning stability issue was remedied by replacing the string tees fitted with 'Graph-Tech'. I've wanted a supersonic since the first time I saw one (the '90s). It's a great looking guitar and is easy to play. I restrung with Ernie Ball 11's and have fitted a special wiring loom that gives me coil-tap and 'in/out of phase' as well as a plethora of other configurations, I also have a kill-switch fitted. The wiring loom was supplied by David at 'Bloodstone' guitar works in the UK and I couldn't be happier with the sound. The stock 'Atomic' humbuckers are super-hot, but it's still easy to get very clean sounds. I don't see me modding this anytime soon, everything just 'works'. Also, DV247 did a great job on the packaging. All in all, I'm very happy 🤓👍🤘
