Description
The Fender Player II Modified Telecaster is built for guitarists who want timeless style with none of the limitations. Whether you're a seasoned gigging pro or a tone-chasing enthusiast, this Tele is all about delivering classic vibes with modern versatility. It's a refined evolution of the workhorse Tele we all know and love; inspired by decades of Fender heritage, now updated for the demands of today's stage and studio players.
At its core, the alder body gives you that familiar, punchy Tele tone; clear, direct, and full of character. But where things really get exciting is in the electronics. A set of newly designed Player II Noiseless pickups retains all the Telecaster's iconic twang and snap, minus the hum. Even better, a push/pull tone pot lets you switch the pickups from traditional parallel wiring to a fat, series configuration-unlocking a beefier, fuller sound perfect for rock, blues, and heavier styles.
Playability is dialed in to perfection. The Modern "C" neck is sleek and fast, with a satin urethane finish on the back that keeps your hand moving freely, even during long sets. The 9.5"-radius fingerboard (available in either rosewood or maple) features rolled edges and 22 medium jumbo frets, making chords smooth and bends effortless. Add in the short post locking tuners, TUSQ nut, modern string tree, and six-saddle Tele bridge with block brass saddles, and you've got a rock-solid setup that holds tuning and intonation no matter how hard you dig in.
If you're looking for a guitar that honors the past while embracing the future, the Player II Modified Telecaster hits the sweet spot. It's a no-nonsense tone machine that's ready for the road, the studio, or wherever your next set takes you.
