SquierParanormal Troublemaker Telecaster Deluxe Electric Guitar With Bigsby Vibrato - Black

Some guitars are built to preserve tradition. Others are built to challenge it. The Squier Paranormal Troublemaker Telecaster Deluxe Electric Guitar belongs firmly in the latter camp, combining a Telecaster platform with dual humbuckers, independent controls, coil-splitting electronics and a Bigsby B50 vibrato for a distinctly unconventional playing experience. Part of the boundary-pushing Paranormal series, it blends Deluxe-inspired appointments, expanded tonal flexibility and expressive performance features into a guitar designed for players who value creativity as much as familiarity. Available in multiple finishes, the Troublemaker Telecaster Deluxe delivers distinctive style, surprising versatility and a fresh perspective on a Fender classic. Dual Humbuckers With Independent Controls and Coil Splitting The Troublemaker Telecaster Deluxe is loaded with a pair of Fender-Designed alnico humbuckers for warm cleans, thick rhythm sounds and saturated lead tones. Independent volume and tone controls for each pickup provide detailed sound shaping, while push/pull functionality on both tone knobs splits the bridge and neck humbuckers independently. Combined with the 3-way toggle switch, this setup unlocks an impressive range of humbucking power and single-coil-inspired clarity. Bigsby B50 Vibrato for Smooth Pitch Expression A Bigsby B50 vibrato tailpiece adds expressive movement, visual attitude and vintage-style shimmer to the Troublemaker Telecaster Deluxe. Ideal for subtle chord movement, atmospheric textures and classic pitch effects, the Bigsby system works with an Adjust-O-Matic bridge to support reliable intonation and sustain. It is a natural match for a guitar built to move beyond standard Telecaster expectations. Deluxe Styling With Bound Appointments and Block Inlays The bound Telecaster body gives this model a refined look that stands apart from more traditional Tele designs. A bound Indian laurel fingerboard, pearloid block inlays, parchment pickguard and skirted amp-style knobs complete the upscale Deluxe aesthetic, while Black and Honey Sunburst finish options give players two distinctive visual personalities. From the body binding to the control layout, every detail reinforces the guitar's bold Paranormal identity. Comfortable Neck Feel for Modern Playability A slim "C"-shaped maple neck provides a comfortable playing experience for rhythm work, lead lines and extended sessions. The satin urethane neck finish supports a smooth, natural feel, while the 25.5" scale length, 22 narrow tall frets and Indian laurel fingerboard offer familiar tension, accurate fretting and confident bends. Vintage-style tuning machines add classic looks with dependable tuning performance. A Creative Telecaster Built Beyond Tradition With its dual humbuckers, independent controls, coil-splitting electronics and Bigsby-equipped vibrato system, the Squier Paranormal Troublemaker Telecaster Deluxe rewards players who aren't afraid to explore beyond traditional Telecaster territory. Its combination of Deluxe-era styling, expanded tonal range and expressive performance features makes it a compelling choice for guitarists seeking new sounds without sacrificing the familiar feel of a Fender-inspired platform. For players who view creativity as part of their instrument's design, the Troublemaker Telecaster Deluxe offers a uniquely Paranormal take on the Tele formula.
