Description
If you're chasing classic Fender tone with a modern edge, the Player II Modified Stratocaster is your new secret weapon. Designed for guitarists who demand versatility, tone, and tuning stability without compromise, this fresh take on a timeless icon is tailor-made for seasoned performers and ambitious up-and-comers alike. It carries the spirit of the original, budget-minded Player II but is loaded with upgrades that make it fully primed for today's stage and studio demands.
Built with an alder body and offered in bold new finishes, this Strat delivers that familiar Fender snap and punch; but it's the guts under the hood that really set it apart. Outfitted with a full set of Fender Player II Noiseless pickups, you get all the Strat sparkle and chime without the hum. The push/pull tone control cleverly adds the neck pickup into positions 1 and 2, expanding your tonal palette without overcomplicating your rig. Whether you're shaping your sound for blues, indie, funk, or modern pop, this guitar stays quiet, articulate, and expressive every step of the way.
Playability is smooth and intuitive thanks to a satin-finished Modern "C" maple neck, rolled fretboard edges, and 22 medium jumbo frets along a 9.5" radius slab fingerboard (rosewood or maple). Intonation is spot-on and bends feel effortless. Add to that a 2-point tremolo with a chamfered block and deluxe locking tuners, and you've got a Strat that stays rock-solid in tune-even after heavy whammy work or hours of gigging.
At Cream City Music, we love seeing brands like Fender adding guitars that honor their heritage, but in a way that speaks to the modern player's needs, at a price that just makes sense. The Player II Modified Stratocaster strikes that balance effortlessly. Plug in and rediscover why the Strat is still the king of clean, the sultan of snap, and now (thanks to these thoughtful refinements) more inspiring than ever.
