Exploring the Paranormal Series Cyclone, Toronado and Super Sonic Models | Fender

Description
With its reverse body shape and headstock, the eccentric Squier Paranormal Super-Sonic electric guitar is stranger than fiction. Producing massive tone courtesy of its dual Squier Atomic humbucking pickups, the Super-Sonic has the aggressive sound to match its striking looks. This guitar is well-suited to students and beginners, with a comfortable “D”-shape neck and narrow 1.5” nut width. For more advanced players, that means this guitar invites lightning-fast play. The vintage-style tremolo allows expressive string-bending effects.

With its otherworldly looks, easy playability and earth-shattering tone, the Super-Sonic model will transport any player into a Paranormal realm.

    I'm a novice player who has been out of motivation to play guitar, with my newley founded free time I decided to get back into playing. I decided on this guitar in particular because I knew I wanted that nice Fender sound, but did not want to spend an arm and a leg. Squier has really outdone themselves with the paranormal series. The Super Sonic in particular has such a crisp sound to it, even in a clean tone it is like no other, the craftsmanship is super nice too, action was perfect right out the box. I would say the only problem with the guitar is it staying in tune, especially when you mess with the tremolo bar, other than that, it's a perfect guitar for experienced or even new players. Can't say that I love this thing enough!

  • Beautiful!

    Great sounding guitar. Very comfortable to play. Every time I walk by it, I have to strum and pluck the strings. 😍

  • Really good except tuning issues

    It's a great playing and feeling guitar, frets were clean and action was good, tuning was fine after I stretched the strings and took out the trem arm.

  • A must have!

    I was lucky enough to catch a Japanese Vista series in '96 as my first ever guitar, now with re release in the exact same color 26 years (blue sparkle) later it's bringing and new level of enjoyment to my playing. 1st saw the guy from VooDoo Glow Skulls playing one of these and have been a fan of this guitar ever since!🤘🏼

  • Perfect Guitar for Small Hands

    First of all, I have tiny hands as a 5'0" tall woman. According to NASA specifications, my hands are smaller than the average 11-year-old's hands. So, this guitar is a dream for someone like me. Short scale, tiny nut width. I can reach notes/chords that I'd previously given up on. I had some doubts about getting the guitar based on videos about it not staying in tune... After a few days of letting it sit around in tune, it now stays in tune for weeks in a row. I kept the 9 gauge strings only, too. 10/10 playability and 10/10 FUN! Paired it with a GTX50 amp and having a blast playing with all the tones.

  • Great sounding fun guitar!

    It's a very cool guitar for the price. The finish looks great. I'll be upgrading some hardware on it, but it sounds great with distortion and fuzz!
