Gear up and get ready to take your performance to the next level with Player II Modified. Featuring key upgrades for the modern guitarist and bassist, these versatile instruments are designed to handle anything you can throw at them.

The Player II Modified Telecaster SH is a classic guitar with the modern player in mind. Everything about the neck is designed for fast and fluid playability, from the Modern “C”-profile with silky satin urethane finish on the back to the comfy 9.5”-radius 1-piece slab rosewood with smooth rolled edges and 22 medium jumbo frets. The alder body provides classic Fender punch and is available in a variety of exciting new finishes. The Player II Modified humbucker is articulate with plenty of output and the noiseless pickup delivers classic Tele twang and bite while eliminating unwanted noise and feedback. For additional tonal flexibility the push/pull tone switch splits the neck humbucker and enables classic Tele neck single-coil tones. The 6-saddle bridge, short post locking tuners, TUSQ nut and modern string tree all combine to keep tuning incredibly stable for even the most demanding steel-emulating bends or roaring rock leads.

Upgrade your arsenal today with the Player II Modified Telecaster SH.

HIGHLIGHTS

MODERN "C" NECK PROFILE WITH 9.5“-RADIUS FINGERBOARD AND ROLLED EDGES
This neck is designed for supremely comfortable performance, with a silky-smooth satin back and our Modern “C”-profile. The 9.5”-radius fingerboard facilitates fluid leads and choke free bends, while the hand-rolled fingerboard edges provide a broken-in feel that’s incredibly inviting.

NEW PLAYER II MODIFIED HUMBUCKER AND NOISELESS™ TELE® PICKUPS
The humbucker is articulate and powerful and splits to deliver true Tele® single coil neck pickup sounds, while the noiseless™ bridge pickup delivers twangy, biting Tele tones. These pickups are perfect for any performance, sound great with gain, and give players an expansive range of tonal options.

UPGRADED ELECTRONICS
A push-pull switch on the tone control changes the pickup wiring from parallel to series for fatter tones. The treble bleed circuit retains natural high-end when rolling off the volume, preserving sparkly cleans and chime-y edge-of-breakup tones.

MODERN TELE BRIDGE WITH 6 BLOCK BRASS SADDLES
The bridge plate is cut away on the sides to enable total freedom of movement, perfect for hybrid picking. The 6 block brass saddles provide improved intonation, sustain and tuning stability.

SHORT POST LOCKING TUNING MACHINES
Short post locking tuning machines provide a sharper break angle over the nut for increased sustain and enhanced tuning stability while making string changes fast and easy.

TUSQ NUT AND MODERN STRING TREE
The Graph Tech® TUSQ® nut provides unparalleled tuning stability when emulating steel bends or playing roaring rock leads and produces more harmonics in the mid and upper range. The modern string tree provides a smooth travel surface for the strings, preventing hang ups and keeping tuning stable during the most demanding performances.
