Lowering the Tele Twang

The 75th Anniversary Player II Baritone Telecaster joins a family of Telecasters that celebrate three-quarters of foundational tone, with entries that celebrate what the Tele has been, and look to what it can be in the future! The Player II Baritone Telecaster is primed for today’s players, with a modern “C” profile neck with a silky satin finish, and a 9.5” radius slab rosewood or maple fingerboard with smooth rolled edges!

Player Series Alnico V Single-Coil pickups offer up a hotter tonal profile, a perfect match for the thundering nature of the lower scale length, while preserving the instantly identifiable growl and twang that made the Telecaster a legend! Finally, a 6-saddle bridge, block steel saddles, and ClassicGear tuners ensure precise tuning stability.

A Big Cat with A Deep Growl

Introducing Fender’s new Limited Edition Player Fusion Series, aimed at redefining the building blocks of heavy music! Sitting at the heart of this new lineup is the Fusion Baritone Jaguar, which goes lower, hits harder, and gives extended-range players access to a beloved Fender profile!

Fender Limited Edition Player Fusion Jaguar Baritone Black

$1,849.00

Designed for the players redefining what heavy looks like, the Fender® Limited Edition Fusion Series takes the most iconic silhouettes in guitar history and strips away everything that doesn't serve the riff. High-output humbuckers and noiseless single coils deliver the kind of tonal aggression that sits in a dense, down-tuned mix without disappearing. Built for the stage and the studio, the Fusion Series is Fender for the generation that plays loud and means it.

The Fusion Baritone Jaguar® goes lower, hits harder, and gives extended-range players a Fender platform that boldly keeps up. At 27" scale and tuned B to B, this Jaguar is purpose-built for drop tunings and the kind of low-end that sits at the foundation of a heavy mix. The classic Jaguar rhythm circuit control section gets a meaningful upgrade — it houses a “Spin-a-Split” wiring via Fender roller pots that progressively transform the humbuckers into single coils for a leaner, more cutting tone, while a TBX Tone circuit gives players more powerful tonal sculpting options. High-output humbuckers handle the heavy lifting across a 12" radius ebony fingerboard that keeps runs and bends effortless across the extended scale.

The cornerstone of the Player Fusion Baritone Jaguar is the redesigned circuit, matched to a pair of high-output humbuckers! The classic Jaguar rhythm control circuit has been cleverly redesigned to house a “Spin-a-Split” circuit, which progressively transforms the humbuckers into single coil pickups for a leaner, more cutting tone! The Fusion Baritone Jaguar also contains Fender’s proprietary Treble Bass Expander tone stack potentiometer, which functions as a standard tone control between 1-5, then decreases resistance, pleasantly scooping your tone and letting more bass, treble, and output flow to your amp! This makes it easy to boost your signal ever so subtly with the turn of a knob!
