'ready to serve your musical vision'The unmistakable sound of a Stratocaster is arguably one of the key foundations of the great Fender company. The Player Stratocaster has all what you'd expect from a Fender Strat and more – chiming bell-like high end, cutting mids and warm low end, alongside that signature Fender articulation – the Player series is bursting with genuine Fender feel and aesthetics.
Showcasing all-round improved specs alongside a whole host of stunning new finishes, Fender’s Player series is here to continue from where the previous Standard line left off, and whilst doing so, set a whole new standard for this iconic guitar from Fender.
Featuring a classic trio of single-coil pickups along with a host of other classic features with some modern enhancements, Fender’s new range of Player Stratocasters are a very welcome addition in the long and winding story of the Strat.
