Overview

A Fender Stratocaster with bold humbucker tones and sleek playability.

The Fender Player II Stratocaster HSS Plus Top Maple Fingerboard Limited Edition electric guitar combines the timeless appeal of a Stratocaster with modern upgrades for versatile performance and striking aesthetics. Featuring a flamed maple veneer top, HSS pickup configuration, and a smooth maple neck, this limited-edition model delivers balanced tone, comfortable playability, and bold sonic options. From clean single-coil sparkle to thick humbucker punch, this strat offers a wide tonal palette for players who demand versatility. Whether you're crafting intricate leads or delivering expressive rhythm work, this guitar adapts beautifully to your musical style.

Electric Guitar With HSS Pickups and Flamed Maple Top

The alder body of this Fender strat delivers classic resonance and balanced tonal response. Known for its articulate midrange and clarity, alder ensures that each note rings with definition and warmth. Paired with the flamed maple veneer top, the guitar gains additional brightness and visual flair, making it stage-ready in both sound and appearance. This combination of tonewoods offers a familiar foundation while adding a modern edge to the instrument's character.

The HSS pickup configuration includes a Player Series Alnico 2 humbucker at the bridge and Player Series Alnico 5 single-coils at the neck and middle positions. This setup expands your tonal options, blending the warmth and power of a humbucker with the crisp, bright clarity of single-coils. Switch seamlessly between rich, heavy tones for solos and clean, sparkling textures for rhythm sections, all with the flick of a selector switch.

The modern C-shape maple neck is designed for comfort and versatility. With its satin urethane finish on the back, it provides smooth playability for extended sessions. The 9.5"-radius fingerboard and 22 medium-jumbo frets support fluid transitions across chords and leads, accommodating both intricate fingerwork and bold bends. This neck profile feels natural for a range of playing styles, making it suitable for both seasoned players and those expanding their technique.

The 2-point synchronized tremolo system enhances playing feel while maintaining consistent tuning stability. It allows for subtle vibrato effects or pronounced pitch bends without compromising intonation. This updated tremolo design ensures reliable performance, whether you're using it for light embellishments or dramatic flourishes in your solos. Combined with Fender's precise craftsmanship, the tremolo adds another dimension to your playing.

Versatile Stratocaster With HSS Humbucker Punch, Flame Maple Top, and Versatile Tone

This Fender electric guitar adapts to a variety of playing environments, from live gigs to studio sessions and home recording setups. Its HSS configuration suits musicians who need tonal diversity, while the comfortable neck and tremolo system keep it ready for extended performances. The balanced sound and striking flamed maple veneer make it a great choice for players looking to stand out in both tone and style. Whether you're layering tracks in a DAW or jamming with friends, this strat delivers consistent results.
