Fender celebrates the working musician with the Player Plus Series, core models with advanced features and brand new finishes designed to give contemporary players a leg up on the competition. Two Strats, two Teles, and three basses make up this end-of-summer splendor of Fenders. Let’s dive in.
The Player Plus Stratocaster pushes a trio of Player Plus Noiseless Stratocaster pickups to the forefront, offering a buttery, hum-free tone with push-pull pickup switching for additional variety. High-performance features like a two-point tremolo, locking tuners, 12”-radius fingerboard with rolled edges, and a satin Modern “C”-shape neck make for a playing experience as inspiring as the brand new finishes. Choose from Opal Spark, Tequila Sunrise, Aged Candy Apple Red, Olympic Pearl, and the classic 3-Color Sunburst.
The Player Plus Stratocaster HSS offers a similarly electrifying experience, subbing in a humbucking pickup in the bridge for extra bite. Take your pick of Belair Blue, Cosmic Jade, Silverburst, and 3-Color Sunburst.
The Player Plus Telecaster keeps the twang in the thang with dual Player Plus Noiseless Telecaster pickups and a modern 6-saddle Tele bridge with block steel saddles. It features the same push-pull pickup switching, 12”-radius fingerboard with rolled edges, and satin Modern “C”-shape neck as the Stratocasters, adding Silver Smoke to a selection of Cosmic Jade, Aged Candy Apple Red, and 3-Color Sunburst finishes.
The Player Plus Nashville Telecaster takes that twang a step further for a full-blown chicken-pickin’ powerhouse, decked out with a trio of Player Plus Noiseless Telecaster pickups and finishes like Butterscotch Blonde, Opal Spark, Aged Candy Apple Red, and 3-Color Sunburst.
The aptly-named Player Plus Precision Bass offers the tone-sculpting advantages of switchable active/passive electronics with a three-band EQ, working in tandem with a mixed PJ pickup set for total control over a full slate of Fender tones. Premium specs like a 12”-radius fingerboard with rolled edges, HiMass bridge, and a Modern “C”-style backshape mean it’s as comfortable as it is punchy. Strap up a Silver Smoke, or throw down with a 3-Color Sunburst, Cosmic Jade, or Olympic Pearl model.
The Player Plus Jazz Bass boasts similar updates, with switchable active/passive electronics, three-band EQ, dual Player Plus Noiseless Jazz Bass pickups, 12”-radius fingerboard with rolled edges, Modern “C”-style backshape, and HiMass bridge. Finishes include Belair Blue, Olympic Pearl, Aged Candy Apple Red, and 3-Color Sunburst.
The Player Plus Jazz Bass V rounds out the series, expanding the nut width from 1.5” to 1.875” and the visual palette from timeless 3-Color Sunburst to new finishes like Tequila Sunrise, Opal Spark, and Cosmic Jade.
