Rated 5 out of 5

Great Deal

The guitar shipped fast and was playable out of the box. I did have it set to my liking by a luthier but I was happy with it before. It was a can't beat price and I'm glad I bought it.

The guitar shipped fast and was playable out of the box. I did have it set to my liking by a luthier but I was happy with it before. It was a can't beat price and I'm glad I bought it.

The Fender Player Stratocaster HSS Electric Guitar, with its Maple Fingerboard in a stylish Tidepool finish, is a testament to Fender's legacy of producing high-quality, durable, and innovative musical instruments. This versatile electric guitar is renowned for its classic Stratocaster sound, characterized by bell-like high ends, punchy mids, and robust low ends, all delivered with crystal-clear articulation.

Designed to serve your unique musical vision, the Player Stratocaster HSS is adaptable to any music style, making it the perfect platform for crafting your distinct sound. It harmoniously blends Fender's heritage with a modern edge, featuring a Player Series humbucking bridge pickup that delivers a warm, colossal sound, while the single-coil Stratocaster middle and neck pickups offer crisp and articulate tones.

The "Modern C"-shaped maple neck, with its comfortable contours and smooth finish, is designed to accommodate almost any playing style. The addition of a 22nd medium jumbo fret to the contemporary 9.5"-radius fingerboard enhances your musical expression. The updated 2-point tremolo design offers smoother travel for an improved playing feel, while ensuring rock-solid tuning stability by reducing friction against the posts.

This electric guitar also boasts master volume and tone controls, a 5-way pickup switch, a 3-ply pickguard, a synthetic bone nut, a dual-wing string tree, sealed tuning machines, and a four-bolt "F"-stamped neck plate. These features not only enhance its performance but also affirm its authenticity as a true Fender product. Experience the power of creating your own tone with the Player Stratocaster HSS Electric Guitar.
