Ever committed to improving their incredible guitars, Fender have introduced the new Fender Player Series which is set to carry on where the Fender Standard Series left off.

Continuing on from one of Fender's most popular lines of all time, the Fender Player series boasts new and improved specs over the previous Fender Standard series as well as wide range of new colours.

This iteration of the Fender Player Stratocaster sports the classic three single-coil pickup configuration along with all the traditional features that have made the Stratocaster such a long-lasting, beloved electric guitar after all these years.

New Player Series Single-Coil Pickups

5-Way Pickup Switching

Synchronised Tremolo Bridge with Bent Steel Saddles

Modern "C" Shape Maple Neck

9.5" Radius Maple Fretboard

Due to its bright, balanced and resonant tone, pronounced upper midrange, fantastic sustain and sharp attack, Alder has been used in many Fender guitars and is present here on the Fender Player Stratocaster.

Not just for good looks; the iconic double cutaway design of the Fender Stratocaster allows for easy reach of the higher frets which is essential for those high-reaching guitar solos and other and adventurous lead guitar licks.

A sturdy 4-bolt neck plate featuring a stamped "F" logo attaches a 25.5" scale Maple neck to the Fender Player Strat's body.

With its modern "C" profile and satin finish back, this neck is smooth, fast and comfortable to play.

Atop the neck is a Maple fretboard with a modern 9.5" radius holding 22 medium jumbo frets for great all-round playability.

On the body of the Fender Player Stratocaster is a 2-point synchronised tremolo bridge with bent steel saddles allowing for great whammy-bar action while providing great intonation.

Up on the headstock are standard cast sealed tuning machines giving you speedy, precise and secure tuning of your strings while the synthetic bone nut prevents binding of the strings while offering great sustain.

Giving the Fender Player Stratocaster its incredible voice is a set of three New Player Series Single-Coil pickups.

A five-position blade allows you to select how you want to use the SSS pickup configuration:

Position 1. Bridge Pickup

Position 2. Bridge and Middle Pickup

Position 3. Middle Pickup

Position 4. Middle and Neck Pickup

Position 5. Neck Pickup

For further shaping of your sonic output there's a Master Volume knob and two Tone knobs; one for the neck and middle pickups and the other for the bridge pickup.

With so many options, the Stratocaster provides a huge variety of tones – no wonder it's been one of the world's most popular guitars since first being introduced back in 1954!

The Fender Stratocaster is synonymous with great music and has been used by some of the greatest, most influential guitarists of all time including such diverse artists as Jimi Hendrix, John Frusciante, Eric Clapton, Stevie Ray Vaughn, David Gilmour and a whole lot more.

With classic style, modern features, great playability and incredible, versatile sound – it's amazing what the Fender Player Stratocaster delivers and at such a great price.
