Fender Player II Modified Stratocaster® HSS, Maple Fingerboard, 3-Color Sunburst w/Bag

Product Description

The Fender Player II Modified Stratocaster HSS 3-Color Sunburst combines classic Stratocaster styling with modern performance upgrades designed for today's versatile guitarist. Featuring an alder body, maple neck and fingerboard, a powerful Player II Modified bridge humbucker and two Player II Noiseless single-coil pickups, this Stratocaster delivers everything from sparkling Fender cleans to punchy, high-output rock tones.

The alder body provides a balanced tonal foundation with clear highs, focused mids and excellent dynamic response. Finished in traditional 3-Color Sunburst with a four-ply tortoiseshell pickguard, the Player II Modified Stratocaster HSS retains the timeless appeal of a classic Fender instrument while incorporating a range of practical enhancements.

The maple neck features Fender's comfortable Modern C profile, complemented by a smooth satin urethane finish and rolled fingerboard edges for a natural, broken-in playing feel. A 9.5-inch fingerboard radius and 22 medium jumbo frets provide excellent comfort for rhythm playing, expressive bends and fluid lead techniques.

The versatile HSS pickup configuration combines a Player II Modified bridge humbucker with two Player II Noiseless Stratocaster single-coils. The humbucker delivers powerful, articulate tones with plenty of output for driven rhythms and lead playing, while the Noiseless pickups provide the familiar chime, sparkle and warmth of traditional Stratocaster pickups with reduced unwanted hum.

For additional tonal flexibility, a push-pull switch on the second tone control splits the bridge humbucker, providing classic single-coil bridge tones alongside the fuller humbucker sound. A treble bleed circuit maintains high-frequency clarity when reducing the guitar's volume, allowing players to move between clean and driven sounds without losing definition.

The upgraded two-point synchronised tremolo features six block steel saddles and a chamfered tremolo block, providing improved sustain, precise intonation and an extended range of vibrato movement. Short-post locking tuners, a Graph Tech TUSQ nut and a modern string tree work together to enhance tuning stability, even during expressive tremolo use.
