Fender | PLayer Plus Series

New Finishes and Features For The Contemporary Player

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.
