Fender Squier Paranormal Offset Telecaster Surf Green Jazzmaster Body 02745
Description
This is a 2020 Fender Squier Paranormal Series Offset Telecaster in Surf Green finish. These feature a Jazzmaster like body with a Tele neck. You get the nice body cutaway and killer offset body looks. It incorporates a vintage ashtray bridge with 3 barrel saddles, as well as vintage tuners. Pickups are the Tele Alnico standard pickup setup, with 3-way switch and Volume/Tone controls.
Cosmetically, this guitar is very clean from the front. The back has some marks. Overall I'd judge it around 8/10 (see all pics below). Frets are in good shape with no significant wear. Weight is 7 pounds, 12 ounces. No case. This model is fairly hard to find in the Surf Green finish, mostly you'll find the walnut version. I do a full cleaning and setup on all guitars. (Details on my setups and packing at bottom of listing.) Thanks for looking!

Guitar Setup
All setups are done by our in-house luthier. Setup includes new strings (9s or 10s depending on what the nut is cut for), overall polish, cleaning any gunk off fingerboard, oiling neck, and polishing frets when necessary. We spray out any pots that are noisy, turn the truss rod (if necessary) and set string height at low-to-medium action depending on string buzz present. Since setup is highly subjective you may need to get it set to your particular needs by your personal luthier. Basses get the same treatment minus the string change. Thanks!
Packing
I use quality boxes, thick bubble wrap, and peanuts to pack guitars. I have a very high rate of successful guitar and bass shipping (meaning few damaged instruments). I have been doing this 10 years and know how to pack well--with or without a hard case. I wrote a detailed story with photos on how I pack a guitar, which you can find on my StillKickinMusic site blog. If you Google "THERE IN ONE PIECE...How to Pack a Guitar" you will find it. Thanks.
Manufacturer Info
The SQUIER Paranormal Offset Telecaster (0377005557) solid body electric guitar is the quintessential mashup of Fender features, combining the components of the iconic Tele® with the comfort and style of the Jazzmaster® offset body shape. With its dual Fender-Designed alnico single-coil pickups and string-through-body bridge design, this guitar’s versatile voice will sing with sustain. Other callouts include a slim “C”-shape neck profile, a gloss neck finish for a slick feel, and chrome hardware that is sure to catch the spotlight.
File this one under best remixes of all time. The Squier Paranormal Offset Telecaster fuses the svelte, sculpted body of a Jazzmaster with the touch and tone of a traditional 3-saddle Tele. And let us tell you: this guitar gets Sweetwater's vote for both looks and performance. The Fender-designed alnico single-coils supply the quack, twang, chunk, and chime of our favorite T-styles. And the sculpted JM body provides unmatched comfort in the hands and un-fret-terred access all the way up the fingerboard. Vintage tuners and that classically wacky headstock infuse the Paranormal Offset Telecaster a heady dose of vitamin T. On the playability side, a Slim "C" maple neck makes the Offset Tele a perfect platform for country twang to mathy modern rock. What's more, the Offset Tele's string-through construction and barrel saddle bridge supply great tone and endless fun for Tele and Jazzmaster lovers alike.
Telemaster or Jazzcaster?
Without question, Leo Fender's Telecaster design is one of the most versatile and celebrated solidbody guitars ever created. But we'll be the first to admit that the traditional slab body isn't for every player. The Squier Paranormal Offset Telecaster fuses everything you love in a traditional Tele — sound, sonics, and scale — with a beautifully sculpted Jazzmaster body in a range of classic Fender colors to stoke fresh tunes and inspiration.
Fender-designed alnico Tele pickups
Alnico magnets form the foundation for some of our favorite Tele tones of all time. The Paranormal Offset Telecaster's alnico pickups ship primed and poised for endless styles of pop, country, rock, and progressive metal. The neck position is scooped and sultry. The bridge position is bright and punchy. And blended together, these pickups are a fast track to smooth jazz rhythms and hum-free percussive scratching.
Part of the Squier Paranormal series
To create the Paranormal series, the mad scientists at Squier broke down a selection of Fender’s most popular designs to the atomic level and smashed them together, bringing to life some of the coolest aberrant axes we’ve ever seen. Flipped headstocks, Frankenstein electronics, necks on bodies to which they don’t belong — these guitars and basses break all the rules! So, if you’ve ever desired to chuck a set of P-90s into a La Cabronita, play a Mustang with the voice of a Strat, or own a J-Bass dressed up as a P-Bass, you’ll love the Squier Paranormal series.
