Fender Player II Series

Fender’s Player II Series is all about making pro-quality guitars and basses more accessible than ever — without compromising on tone, feel or style. Designed with today’s players in mind, this refreshed lineup builds on everything that made the original Player Series a hit, while adding a bunch of thoughtful upgrades that make these instruments even more inspiring to play.

We’re talking rolled fingerboard edges for a smoother feel, the return of rosewood fingerboards for that classic vibe, upgraded pickups for extra tonal clarity, plus a stunning selection of colours pulled straight from the Fender archives.

Key Features

  • Alder body: A time-tested Fender favourite that delivers a crisp, balanced sound.
  • Modern “C” neck with rolled fingerboard edges: Fast and comfortable with a worn-in feel, perfect for everything from bluesy bends to speedy solos.
  • Player Series Alnico V single-coils: Provide classic Strat tones with a bit more punch and clarity.
  • 5-way blade switch: Dial in everything from glassy neck pickup cleans to rowdy bridge pickup snarl.
  • 2-point synchronized tremolo: Super-stable and smooth — ideal for subtle warbles or divebombs without throwing your tuning out of whack.
  • Fender ClassicGear tuning machines: Vintage vibe with modern reliability, so you can focus on playing and not constantly retuning.
