This limited-edition Fender Player II Stratocaster electric guitar delivers vintage-inspired tone and modern playability with a special British Racing Green finish. Built with a resonant alder body and a comfortable Modern C maple neck, this limited-edition model features a smooth rosewood fingerboard for added warmth. Equipped with Player Series single-coil pickups, the Strat offers crisp articulation and dynamic punch. With a 5-way switch and master volume and tone controls, you can easily shape your signature sound.

Resonant Alder Body and Comfortable Contours

The contoured alder body provides a balanced, vintage-style tone and is complemented by a gloss urethane finish that highlights the natural beauty of the wood. Lightweight and ergonomically designed, the Strat's iconic body shape offers comfort for long playing sessions while delivering the resonance and sustain players expect from Fender’s legendary design.

Fast-Playing Maple Neck and Rosewood Fingerboard

Featuring a Modern C-shaped maple neck, the Player II Strat offers a fast, familiar feel suited for any playing style. The limited-edition rosewood fingerboard provides a smooth surface for expressive playing, while 22 medium-jumbo frets allow for effortless bends and rapid runs. Together, the neck and fingerboard deliver enhanced playability for both lead and rhythm playing.

Player Series Pickups for Versatile Strat Tones

The trio of Player Series Alnico V single-coil pickups offers a wide range of tones, from glassy highs to punchy low-mids. The 5-way switch allows access to neck, middle and bridge positions, while master volume and tone controls help dial in the perfect sound. These pickups capture the legendary Stratocaster tone, providing versatility across genres.

Vintage Features With Modern Enhancements

Blending classic design with modern upgrades, this limited-edition Stratocaster includes a synchronized tremolo bridge for smooth pitch-bending effects, a 3-ply pickguard and sealed tuners for stable tuning. With a 9.5" fingerboard radius and narrow-tall frets, this Strat balances vintage charm with modern playability, making it a versatile and stylish addition to any player’s collection.

    I've been eyeing up the Player II Strats for at least a year now, and I finally have one! It plays like a dream, sounds amazing, and the Racing Green color is absolutely gorgeous. It's super comfortable to play, even though it is pretty heavy.

    Purchased this Player II Ltd Ed British Racing Green Strat a bit over a month again and I couldn't be more pleased. Aside from a small relief tweak on receipt, the guitar plays great, quality is excellent, fret work and nut is perfect and it sounds great.

  • It's unmistakably a Strat

    Let me start by saying that ultimately , this is a beautiful, wonderful sounding guitar. The rosewood fretboard is a nice improvement on the original player series. My only real complaint is that out of the box it was literally unplayable. I expect some intonation issues, some fret buzz, high action etc. But it was all that and more. Don't let it sway you though. After a proper set up it strats with the best of them.

    Great out of the box. Neck is much smoother than the Player 1 and I'm not sure if they're different but the pickups sound better. Maybe I'm blinded by the color and rosewood. Like John Lennon said Love isnt blind, it's deaf lol. Color has to be seen in person to really appreciate

    went into guitar center and this one caught my eye. I tried the fender standard strat and the player ii was on a different league. The sound on the player was much better and the finish on the standard was worse that my squire affinity. I really liked the sound and the feel of the prs sky but this guitar has a slight better range and output. Switched the white to black and this thing looks killer.

    I bought this guitar for the color and neck. I played it for a lil and then changed to a preloaded pick guard (Klein Epic 1954's) that addressed any electrical issues and improved the tone (although I think alot of players might like the pups that it came with) I like the OEM tuners so I kept those, changed the string tree, put strap lock buttons on. Gave it a set up and waxed the neck. I'll probably change the bridge and nut soon. Already it's now an amazing guitar in tone and feel

    Is this guitar's cavity shielded with paint or foil? Also is it routed for a humbucker under the pickguard?
