Squier Paranormal Stratocaster Deluxe Laurel 3-Color Sunburst

Overview

The Squier Paranormal Stratocaster Deluxe in 3-Color Sunburst puts a different spin on the Strat platform with an HS pickup layout and Deluxe-era styling. A Fender-Designed Alnico single-coil in the neck position provides clear, articulate tones, while a Fender-Designed Alnico humbucker at the bridge adds thicker output for driven rhythm and lead sounds. A push/pull tone control splits the bridge humbucker for additional single-coil options beyond the standard 3-way switching.

The nyatoh Stratocaster body retains familiar belly and arm contours, while the maple "C"-shape neck, 9.5"-radius Indian laurel fingerboard, and 22 narrow tall frets provide a comfortable, familiar playing platform. A large '70s-style Stratocaster headstock, skirted amp knobs, vintage-style synchronized tremolo, and 3-ply black pickguard round out the model's distinctive look.
