General

Fender's Player Stratocaster FR HSS is an electric guitar that can also handle heavier styles of music. It has a few modern twists that make it a little bit different to the other models in the Player series. This includes the Floyd Rose Double Locking Tremolo bridge that keeps the tuning in check no matter how many extreme vibrato effects you throw at it!

Player Stratocaster FR HSS

The fretboard has a relatively-flat radius of 12 inches which makes it easier to press down the strings. The alder body is home to three pickups which consist of a humbucker in the bridge position and two single-coils in the middle and at the neck. This combination gives you extra power whenever you need it and a broad range of Fender tones to work with.

First the shipping was ultra fast .The guitar is perfect for i always wanted a stratocaster with a different tremolo !Size of the neck is perfect for my large hand the finish of the guitar is closer to made in USA.
The floyd rose do the job and seems to be covered by a very thick coat of chrome ! lets see if it will age well !If this guitar near perfect out of the box my plan was something else . I changed the Floyd with a original Germany 500 euro more I replace the pickguard with a Fender SSS and changed one of the pickup with a noise less Fender.Also for the extra luxe I changed the keys with the Fender locking key set ! The 0.22 cap was replaced by a 0.47 big black cap from Sony and a 7 position switch was added to the guitar !To finish I needed a case for this white polar beauty and ordered a Fender case .I love this shopping thanks guys for fast shipping

Ik heb een b-stock Fender strat Player Floyd Rose HSS MN white gitaar gekocht voor een zeer goede (verminderde) prijs.
Bij ontvangst bleek er geen schrammetje op te vinden en zij ziet er niet alleen fonkelnieuw uit zij is het ook. Goed afgesteld. Neckradius 12" is iets groter dan bij mijn andere 2 stratocasters maar dit is geen hinderpaal.
Voor deze prijs heb ik waar voor mijn geld . Thanks Bax-shop

Deze gitaar is door zijn 22 frets en humbucker in de brug voor alle muzieksoorten te gebruiken. De Floyd Rose werkt perfect. Gitaar ontstemt helemaal niet. Ook niet bij intensief tremolo gebruik. Verder speelt hij heerlijk en is hij erg goed afgewerkt. Aanrader dus!
