<p>The inspiring sound of a Stratocaster is one of the foundations of Fender. Featuring this classic sound&mdash;bell-like high end, punchy mids and robust low end, combined with crystal-clear articulation&mdash;the Player Stratocaster is packed with authentic Fender feel and style. It&rsquo;s ready to serve your musical vision, it&rsquo;s versatile enough to handle any style of music and it&rsquo;s the perfect platform for creating your own sound.</p>
<p>Respecting our heritage while maintaining our innovative spirit, the power trio of Player Series single-coil pickups are crisp and articulate&mdash;it&rsquo;s authentic Fender tone with a modern edge. The &ldquo;Modern C&rdquo;-shaped maple neck&rsquo;s comfortable contours and smooth finish are ideal for almost any playing style. By adding a 22nd medium jumbo fret to the contemporary 9.5&rdquo;-radius fingerboard we&rsquo;ve made it easier to express yourself musically. The updated 2-point tremolo design has smoother travel for enhanced playing feel while simultaneously giving you rock-solid tuning stability since there&rsquo;s less friction against the posts. Other features include master volume and tone controls, a 5-way pickup switch, 3-ply pickguard, synthetic bone nut, dual-wing string tree, sealed tuning machines and four-bolt &ldquo;F&rdquo;-stamped neck plate that marks this instrument as the real deal&mdash;as Fender as it gets.</p>
