The highlight of the Fender Player II Stratocaster HSS RW 3TS 3-Colour Sunburst is undoubtedly its pickup configuration: With two Player Series Alnico 5 single-coil pickups in the neck and middle positions, and a Player Series Alnico 2 humbucker in the bridge position, you can not only play defined riffs or clean chords, but also have the option to venture into heavier territory. The high-output Alnico 2 humbucker delivers a rich sound that can easily handle rough distortion or even high-gain, whilst retaining the classic Strat character. Those who prefer a bluesy overdrive sound or gentle clean tones will find that the two Alnico 5 single-coil pickups deliver the classic Strat sound, characterised by soft mids and distinctive highs.

The hardware on the Player II Stratocaster HSS MN Cactus Gray comprises a 2-point tremolo, Fender ClassicGear tuning machines and the classic four-screw neck plate with the ‘F’ logo. The controls and pickups also feature an Aged White cover, which gives the Player II Stratocaster a typical vintage look. The hardware is not only characterised by its high build quality but also offers comfortable operation, for example when it comes to vibrato nuances or reliable tuning stability.
