Description

Our favorite time in the Squier lineup is here: more Paranormals! This Paranormal Precision Bass Thinline SJ presents the original Fender bass in a reimagined, resonant form, voiced for semi-hollow brilliance with a unique set of SJ pickups and a 3-way pickup switch for expanded tonal possibilities. Buckle up—this one is a low-end doozie!

This Paranormal P-Bass starts with a gloss-finished nyatoh body, featured here in a sleek Vintage White finish. The semi-hollow construction provides weight relief and an open, resonant character that enhances sustain and complex overtones. Attached to the body is a maple neck with a comfortable "C"-shaped profile—smooth and fast, with easy access across the full 34" scale length. Topping the neck is an Indian laurel fingerboard with narrow-tall frets and pearloid dot inlays.

For additional support, Squier equips the bass with a 4-saddle vintage-style bridge featuring slotted barrel saddles for enhanced vibration transfer and accurate intonation. At the '51 P Bass-style headstock, you'll find vintage-style tuning machines that make everyday adjustments and routine maintenance simple.

The most unique aspect of this Paranormal Precision Bass is its pickup configuration: a Fender-designed Jazz Bass single-coil in the bridge position and a Fender-designed '51 P Bass single-coil in the neck position, paired with a 3-way blade switch for a versatile range of tones. With access to both bridge and neck pickup voices, players can enjoy the smooth articulation of the P Bass pickup, the classic growl of the Jazz Bass pickup, or a blend of both. Controlled via master volume and tone knobs, this bass delivers a surprising amount of oversized sound at an accessible price point.
