Squier Paranormal Baritone Jazzmaster® HH Oxblood

Squier Paranormal Baritone Jazzmaster HH Oxblood

Series: Paranormal
Body Shape: Jazzmaster
Orientation: Right-Handed
Finish: Oxblood Gloss Polyurethane

Overview

The Squier Paranormal Baritone Jazzmaster HH takes the unmistakable offset Jazzmaster design into deeper tonal territory with a 27" baritone scale and extended-range B-B tuning. Designed for players looking to explore lower tunings, heavier riffs and cinematic textures, its Nyatoh body delivers a substantial platform for the instrument's low-end response, while the Jazzmaster silhouette retains the familiar comfort and character of Fender's offset designs.

Two Fender-Designed Alnico humbucking pickups provide a warm, full-bodied sound with powerful output and articulate clarity. A three-position toggle selects the bridge, both or neck pickup, with master volume and tone controls providing straightforward control over the overall sound. This makes the Baritone Jazzmaster particularly versatile for everything from atmospheric clean parts to thick, heavily driven tones.

The 27" scale length is paired with a slim "C"-shaped maple neck, 9.5" radius Indian Laurel fingerboard and 22 narrow-tall frets. A Tune-O-Matic-style bridge with stopbar tailpiece provides a solid foundation for the heavier baritone string set, while vintage-style tuning machines, pearloid block inlays and a bound fingerboard complete the distinctive Oxblood finish.

Key Features

Playability and Comfort

The 27" baritone scale provides the increased string tension and extended range needed for B-B tuning, while the "C"-shaped maple neck keeps the playing feel familiar. The 9.5" fingerboard radius, 42mm Micarta nut and narrow-tall frets provide a comfortable platform for both chordal and lead playing.

Tonewoods and Construction

The Jazzmaster-shaped body is constructed from Nyatoh and finished in gloss polyurethane. The maple neck uses a four-bolt construction, while the bound Indian Laurel fingerboard features pearloid block inlays and a 9.5" radius.

Electronics

Two Fender-Designed Alnico humbuckers provide the core tones, offering a combination of warmth, output and clarity suited to the extended-range format. A three-position toggle selects bridge, both or neck pickup, with master volume and master tone controls.

Hardware and Setup

The Tune-O-Matic bridge and stopbar tailpiece provide a stable platform for the baritone setup and help maintain reliable intonation. Vintage-style tuning machines complement the chrome hardware, while Nickel Plated Steel .014-.068 gauge strings are fitted for the B-B tuning.

Design Details

The Oxblood finish is paired with a 3-ply black pickguard, chrome humbucker covers, chrome hardware and a matching black switch tip. The bound Indian Laurel fingerboard features pearloid block inlays, while the Jazzmaster headstock maintains the distinctive Fender offset aesthetic.
