The Fender Squier Paranormal Precision Bass Thinline SJ in Olive blends classic Precision heritage with a lightweight semi‑hollow body for a resonant, airy low end.

Nyatoh semi‑hollow body keeps the instrument balanced and easy to play for long sessions.
Unique SJ pickup pair – a ‘51 Precision single‑coil in the neck and a Jazz‑style single‑coil in the bridge – delivers a broad tonal palette.
34" (864 mm) scale and 20‑fret fingerboard with a 9.5" (241 mm) radius provide comfortable string tension and smooth playability.
Vintage‑style chrome hardware, 4‑saddle bridge and three‑way blade switch give classic Fender feel with modern reliability.

Paranormal Precision Bass Thinline SJ – Resonant Semi‑Hollow Performance

Paranormal Precision Bass Thinline SJ reimagines the iconic Precision bass as a resonant, semi‑hollow instrument that sings with depth and clarity. Built for players who crave vintage tone without the weight, the olive‑finished model offers a surprising blend of acoustic warmth and electric punch. The Paranormal Precision Bass Thinline SJ is the right choice for bassists seeking a versatile voice that adapts from studio tracking to stage grooves.

Standout Features

What truly sets this bass apart is its thinline semi‑hollow construction, which adds natural acoustic resonance while slashing overall mass. Coupled with the rare SJ configuration – a ‘51 Precision single‑coil neck pickup paired with a Jazz‑style bridge pickup – the instrument delivers a tonal spectrum from warm thump to bright articulation, all managed through a smooth three‑way blade switch.

Body & Construction – Light‑Weight Resonance

The body’s semi‑hollow design not only reduces weight but also enhances sustain, making every note ring with clarity.

The body uses Nyatoh, a lightweight wood that supports resonant tones.
Finish: Gloss Polyurethane — durable shine that protects the olive hue.
Scale Length: 864 mm — standard 34" length for familiar string tension.

Neck & Fingerboard – Comfortable Playability

A smooth "C"‑shaped neck and generous fingerboard radius make fast fretting effortless.

The neck is crafted from Maple, providing a solid core for stability.
Neck Shape: "C" Shape — ergonomic feel across the fretboard.
Fingerboard Material: Indian Laurel — smooth surface for fluid note bends.
Fingerboard Radius: 241 mm — comfortable 9.5" radius for chord work.
Nut Width: 42.8 mm — 1.685" width offers plenty of string spacing.

Electronics & Hardware – Classic Fender Control

The electronics combine simplicity with tonal versatility, letting you shape your sound on the fly.

It features an SJ pickup configuration (single‑coil ‘51 P Bass neck + Jazz‑style bridge), offering a dual voice palette.
Controls: Master Volume, Master Tone — straightforward tweaking.
Switching: 3‑Position Blade Switch — selects neck, bridge, or both.
Bridge: 4‑Saddle Vintage‑Style with Slotted Barrel Saddles — precise intonation.
Hardware Finish: Chrome — classic aesthetic.
Tuning Machines: Vintage‑Style — reliable and smooth.

Who Is It For

Players who want a full‑range bass without the bulk will find this instrument a perfect match. The Paranormal Precision Bass Thinline SJ is the right choice for gigging musicians, studio enthusiasts, and even younger players transitioning to a professional‑grade instrument, offering both the vintage vibe and modern comfort they need.

Fender Heritage – Modern Twist on a Classic

Fender’s Precision line has defined bass tone since the 1950s, and the Paranormal series pushes that legacy forward by marrying the original body shape with a semi‑hollow shell and the innovative SJ pickup layout.

I have a remark regarding the description

Pickups Configuration: SS

Single-Coil Single-Coil configuration means that the guitar is equipped with two single-coil pickups. It offers a clear, crisp tone with pronounced highs and low output, making it ideal for clean sounds and styles such as blues, country and pop.

Body: Nyatoh

Nyatoh is a medium-weight wood with characteristics similar to mahogany. It offers a warm, round tone with a strong mid-range and good sustain. It is more affordable and is often used as an alternative to more expensive woods. It offers a balanced sound suitable for a wide range of musical styles.

Neck: Maple

Maple is known for its strength and stability, making it ideal for necks that need to resist bending and warping.

Fretboard: Indian Laurel

Indian Laurel is a medium hard wood with a fine texture and a warm brown tone. It offers a balanced tone with a slightly softer response than ebony or maple. The Indian Laurel fingerboard is valued for its durability and feel, while offering a visually appealing and affordable alternative to more expensive woods.
