The Fender Player Series Stratocaster features many aspects traditionally associated with Strats, while boasting a handful of performance features that make it a notable selection for contemporary players, hence its name. This series was designed with players in mind, offering affordable guitars with qualities that still set them apart. 

Like many Strats, the Fender Player Series Stratocaster features a body carved from alder, and is finished in a superb Anniversary 2-color Sunburst. Its maple neck is carved to a deep "C" neck profile, with curved-shoulders that feel comfortable for most players, and is also finished with satin urethane on the back, providing a smooth surface for hand motion with less friction. The 9.5" radius, maple fingerboard of this Strat features 22 medium jumbo frets with black dot inlays.

In response to player preferences, Fender updated this guitar to offer a 2-point synchronized tremolo with bent steel saddles for improved sustain and tuning stability, and Standard Cast/Sealed tuning machines ensure precise tuning as well.

The sonic character of the Fender Player Series Stratocaster is largely driven by three versatile, position specific Player Series Alnico 5 Strat Single-Coil pickups. These pickups deliver the classic spank and sparkle associated with the Stratocaster, and are easily controlled with a 5-position blade pickup switch that easily facilitates different pickup combinations, as well as a master volume, Tone 1 (operating on the neck and middle pickups) and Tone 2 (dedicated to the bridge pickup). Parchment plastic knobs, and a 3-ply parchment pickguard add a finishing touch to this guitar's vintage-inspired aesthetic, in tandem with an updated classic Fender logo.
