Classic Fender Tones!
iconic fender chime!Versatile in tone, the angled single-coil neck pickup ensures each and every note and chord sings with classic Fender tones. Low in output, this pickup features a balanced voice with the classic Fender chime in the upper harmonics, cutting mids and warm lows for voice which effortlessly cuts through the mix, whilst the humbucking pickup offers a more aggressive and full tone but with an optional coil-split, so this guitar certainly covers all bases. The master volume and tone controls, alongside the 3-way pickup switch are there to help you tweak your sound to your liking.
wild sustain!Fender included a six-saddle string-through-body hardtail bridge on the Player Duo-Sonic HS which wildly increases sustain, whilst the bent steel saddles aid in adding a little ‘cut’ to your overall tone, each of these are able to be adjusted incrementally too.
Due to the smaller 24” scale, this adds a touch more warmth and thickness to the overall tone of the Player Duo-Sonic HS, resulting in a ‘slinker’ playing feel and ensuring it’s far easier to perform multi-tone bends.
