Squier Paranormal Troublemaker Telecaster Deluxe Bigsby Laurel Black

Overview

The Squier Paranormal Troublemaker Telecaster Deluxe with Bigsby in Black combines a bound Telecaster body with dual Fender-Designed Alnico humbuckers and a B50 Bigsby vibrato tailpiece. Independent volume and tone controls give each pickup its own adjustment, while push/pull coil splitting on both tone controls lets the neck and bridge humbuckers be split independently for a broader range of humbucking and single-coil sounds.

The nyatoh body is paired with a maple "C"-shape neck and bound Indian laurel fingerboard with pearl block inlays, a 9.5" radius, and 22 narrow tall frets. A Tune-O-Matic bridge provides precise intonation alongside the Bigsby, while chrome hardware, a parchment pickguard, vintage-style tuners, and a large Stratocaster-style headstock complete the Deluxe-inspired design.
