Product Description

The Paranormal series goes far beyond what we think we know about Squier guitars. It embraces forgotten models, dabbles in what could have been and stirs the pot of familiar Squier specs.

Fender fans will be familiar with the Cabronita: a solid body, humbucker-equipped Telecaster. But the Squier Thinline Cabronita is different again, drawing heavily from late '60s Tele and Jazzmaster design.

Construction

The Cabronita Thinline Tele is a semi-hollow guitar made using a poplar body. That allows it to sound rich and airy – ideal for styles of music heavily reliant on pristine cleans or overdrive with a bit of swagger.

Such a sleek guitar needs playability to match. The Cabronita delivers thanks to a fast “C” shape maple neck and narrow tall frets embedded in the matching maple neck. Hardware includes a sturdy 6-saddle string-through-body bridge and synthetic bone nut combo.

Sound

Fender designed the Cabronita's Jazzmaster pickups to go hand-in-hand with the semi-hollow body for a vibrant, silky tone. More versatile than you might think, alnico Jazzmaster single-coil pickups cover a wide range of characterful sounds suited to creative players.

This has the makings of a good guitar as long as you are prepared to change out the bridge and tuners which are not good.

What a fantastic guitar! You could not ask for better for the price. I had to do a full setup on it but it was worth it.

Mr A Reeve18th Dec 2021

I spotted this guitar on line and loved the look. Bought it without even trying it out but watched a number of youtube reviews. The guitar is really nice for a Chinese made cheaper version - it plays really well, is resonant and super-light, and looks great. The sound is pretty punchy and not at all shrill so I'm really happy. I may upgrade the tuning pegs as I feel they are a bit of a weak link, but this is absolutely fine as is for a backup guitar or even main guitar for my pub occasional pub gigs!
