Squier Paranormal Jazzmaster XII 12-String Electric Guitar in Lake Placid Blue

12-String

A 12-string guitar is a type of guitar that has twelve strings arranged in six pairs, or courses, with each pair tuned either in unison or an octave apart. This setup creates a richer, fuller, and more shimmering sound compared to a standard six-string guitar. Often used in folk, rock, and blues, 12-string guitars add natural chorus and resonance, making them ideal for rhythm playing and jangly textures. They can be acoustic or electric, but require a slightly different playing technique due to the paired strings.

Electric Guitars

Electric guitars use magnetic pickups to convert string vibrations into an electrical signal, which is then amplified. Unlike acoustic guitars, they rely on amplification for volume and tone shaping, making them highly versatile in genres like rock, blues, jazz, and metal. Electric guitars come in many body styles—solid, semi-hollow, and hollow—and feature different pickup configurations, neck types, and hardware. From smooth clean tones to aggressive distortion, they offer a wide sonic range, making them the backbone of modern guitar music.

Jazzmaster

The Jazzmaster is an iconic model of electric guitar designed and manufactured by the American company Fender. Introduced in 1958, the Jazzmaster was initially marketed as a high-end instrument aimed at jazz guitarists, but it later found favor among surf, indie, and alternative rock musicians for its unique tone and versatility.

The Fender Jazzmaster has been used by numerous influential musicians across various music genres, including jazz, surf, indie rock, and alternative rock. While it initially struggled to find commercial success in the jazz market, it eventually gained popularity among alternative rock musicians in the 1980s and 1990s, leading to a resurgence of interest in the model. Today, the Jazzmaster remains a beloved and highly sought-after instrument among players and collectors for its unique design, versatile tone, and rich musical history.
