Fender Player Strat Maple Black Guitar
The Fender Player Series Stratocaster takes the tried and tested Strat formula and combines it with some key updates that make it supremely practical and hugely inspiring.
Alder has been Fender’s preferred body tonewood for decades thanks to its consistent tone, punchy midrange, tight bass and sparkling highs. The Player Strat’s body has been hand-shaped to original specifications, so every curve and contour feels just right whether playing seated or standing. A sleek gloss black finish and contrasting 3-ply parchment pickguard give it a classic elegance that will feel right at home on any stage.
The Maple neck features a Modern “C” profile that fits the hand to perfection, thin for fast licks but also substantial enough to support the hand for long playing sessions. Fender have added a 22nd fret to the Maple fretboard so there are now even more notes to choose from. The combination of a 9.5” radius and medium jumbo frets will ensure you never choke out even on extreme bends. Also, the back of the neck has a satin finish that feels smooth and fast even on hot stages.
Smooth, controlled vibrato is achieved thanks to the two point tremolo bridge that includes individual saddles for accurate intonation. Providing classic Fender tones with a modern edge are a set of Player Series single-coils. These pickups utilise Alnico 5 magnets to produce a slightly more mid-focused sound than is traditional, enabling them to handle high gain really well while also cleaning up brilliantly. Finally, the Fender Player Stratocaster features a dedicated tone knob for your bridge pickup so you have total control in every position.
At Bonners we are passionate about guitars. Every instrument we sell undergoes a thorough inspection and a full setup in our professional workshop prior to sale. This means you get perfect function and playability right out of the box so you can enjoy every second with your new guitar.
