A Stratocaster with humbucker power and noiseless clarity.
The Fender Player II Modified Stratocaster HSS maple fingerboard electric guitar merges classic Stratocaster design with cutting-edge features for modern players. Its alder body delivers a balanced, resonant tone that's ideal for both clean and high-gain settings. The HSS pickup configuration, anchored by a high-output humbucker, provides a versatile range of tones—from warm single-coil clarity to aggressive rock leads. A satin-finished modern C maple neck offers unmatched comfort and speed, while the 2-point synchronized tremolo ensures expressive pitch modulation with enhanced tuning stability. This guitar is crafted to meet the demands of players who need tonal flexibility, smooth playability and reliable performance.
Fast-Playing Neck for Enhanced Comfort
This Strat's modern C-shaped maple neck is designed for effortless performance. The satin urethane finish ensures a smooth, non-sticky feel, allowing players to glide across the fretboard with ease. A 9.5" radius fingerboard with rolled edges enhances comfort and reduces fatigue during extended sessions, making intricate lead runs and complex chord voicings easier to execute. With 22 medium-jumbo frets, players can achieve accurate bends and clean articulation across the entire fretboard. Whether you're performing fluid solos or locking into rhythm work, this neck's ergonomic design delivers a precise and confident playing experience.
Dynamic HSS Pickup Configuration With Coil Splitting
The Player II Modified Stratocaster HSS features a Player II humbucker in the bridge and Noiseless single-coil pickups in the middle and neck positions. This pickup combination delivers a tonal spectrum that spans from warm, articulate single-coil sounds to full-bodied humbucker aggression. The push/pull tone control activates the humbucker's coil-splitting function, transforming it into a single-coil for added sonic clarity. With a 5-way blade switch, players can seamlessly navigate through bright, clean tones and thick, driven textures. The pickups provide the versatility needed for both intricate melodic work and powerful rhythm playing, making this guitar an adaptable tool for tonal exploration.
High-Performance Tremolo System for Stability
The 2-point synchronized tremolo bridge with block saddles and a chamfered tremolo block ensures smooth vibrato effects while maintaining tuning stability. Short-post locking tuners, a TUSQ nut and a modern string tree further enhance this guitar's ability to stay in tune, even during aggressive bends or extensive tremolo use. These components work together to provide a reliable foundation for expressive playing, allowing guitarists to push their creativity without compromising performance. The tremolo system also adds a level of precision and durability, ensuring consistent functionality in demanding live or studio environments.
Built for Reliable, Long-Term Playability
The Player II Stratocaster is crafted with durability and performance in mind. Its alder body is finished in gloss polyester, providing resilience against wear while maintaining a sleek, professional look. The 4-bolt neck construction enhances stability, ensuring consistent feel and tone over time. The nickel/chrome hardware finish adds an extra layer of durability, making this model road-ready and studio-friendly. These thoughtful construction elements guarantee that the guitar remains a reliable companion for years of use, even under rigorous playing conditions.
