Squier Paranormal Stratocaster Deluxe Electric Guitar - Laurel Fingerboard - Black Pickguard - 3-Color Sunburst

The Paranormal Stratocaster® Deluxe supercharges the world's most-played guitar with a potent HS pickup configuration that blends the snappy clarity of a Fender-Designed alnico single-coil Telecaster® neck pickup with the thick, saturated punch of a Fender-Designed alnico humbucker at the bridge routed through a 3-way blade switch with push/pull humbucker coil-split functionality on the tone control for even more sonic range.
