Fender Player Stratocaster | Polar White | Maple Neck | 3 Single-coil Alnico Pickups | 2 Point Tremolo

The Iconic Fender Stratocaster in Polar White... All the tone you want!

The most famous and recognizable guitar ever produced is the Fender Stratocaster! The Strat has been manufactured for more than 60 years, and both its appearance and its feature set have mostly not altered. Small adjustments have been made over time to enhance the instrument's tones, quality, and playability, though. 

The Fender Player Stratocaster embodies all of Fender's expertise in guitar construction and is offered at a cost that is more affordable to a larger market. These reasonably priced guitars from Mexico feature a variety of upgrades that give players an instrument that is more elegant and versatile than before.

The Player Series Stratocaster continues to include Fender's classic Alder and Maple wood combination, which the company has long established as its favored tonewoods. The Alder body provides a solid foundation for the trio of single-coil pickups by producing a balanced sound with a tight low-end, lots of midrange punch, and a sharp presence. 

This wood is what gives Fender guitars their distinctive snap, especially when paired with a bolt-on Maple neck, a real Fender mainstay. This material's bright top-end makes it easy for notes and chords to easily stand out in a mix, ensuring that your performance is audible above the sound of the entire band. The sonic clarity of this instrument, which also has a Maple fretboard, is essentially unequaled.

The three pickups on the Fender Stratocaster are infamous, and the Player Series guitars have an updated set of Alnico 5 single-coils. These specific pickups project the renowned, lively Fender tone, but they also have a more contemporary sound with a louder mid-range that can withstand overdrive far better than their predecessors. With the 5-way blade pickup switch in positions 2 and 4, you can still get those vintage chimey Strat tones if you keep your amp settings simple. 

If connected to a bright-sounding amplifier, dedicated tone controls for the neck/middle and bridge pickups allow you to reduce any excessive highs. A master volume knob that is ergonomically positioned closest to the bridge pickup can be utilized to roll off gain for a gentler, "cleaned-up" sound.
