Fender Player II Modified Stratocaster HSS - 3-Color Sunburst  

The Player II Series

Fender developed the Player series specifically for beginning musicians and musicians with a relatively low budget. The Fender Player guitars and basses are made in Mexico and measure up to Fender’s American-made guitars quite well. The instruments are also very versatile and are even suited for recording and gigs. The Player guitars are thus more affordable versions of the popular Fender models. Consequently, they also feel and sound like a Fender guitar. However, the Player models are relatively standard, Fender did not add any unique modifications or special additions to the guitar. All Modified models have Player II Noiseless pickups with Push/Pull systems. This means they have more pickup configurations and are thus more versatile. The Player II models contain sturdier bridges so they’re more stable than with previous models, the necks now have rolled edges so they’re more comfortable, and the Modified guitars all have Locking Tuners for increased tuning stability. Furthermore, now that rosewood is back on the market some of the guitars have a rosewood fretboard.

With the three Player II Noiseless pickups (a humbucker and two single coils) the guitar can produce crystalline highs, musical mids, and tight lows.

The guitar has an alder body, which provides a lightweight base and has great sustain. The guitar also has a maple neck and fretboard. This is a great wood that provides a comfortable experience.
