Fender 70th Anniversary Player Series Stratocaster, Maple Fingerboard – 2-Color Sunburst

70 Years of Iconic Tone – The Fender 70th Anniversary Player Series Stratocaster with Maple Fingerboard in 2-Color Sunburst

The inspiring sound of a Stratocaster is one
of the foundations of Fender. Featuring this
classic sound – bell-like high end, punchy mids
and robust low end, combined with crystal-clear
articulation – the Player Stratocaster is packed
with authentic Fender feel and style. It’s ready to
serve your musical vision, it’s versatile enough
to handle any style of music and it’s the perfect
platform for creating your own sound.

Respecting the Fender heritage while maintaining an
innovative spirit, the power trio of Player Series
single-coil pickups are crisp and articulate – it’s
authentic Fender tone with a modern edge. The
“Modern C”-shaped maple neck’s comfortable
contours and smooth finish are ideal for almost
any playing style. Adding a 22nd medium
jumbo fret to the contemporary 9.5”-radius
fingerboard makes it easier to express
yourself musically. The updated 2-point tremolo
design has smoother travel for enhanced playing
feel while simultaneously giving you rock-solid
tuning stability since there’s less friction against
the posts. Other features include master volume
and tone controls, a 5-way pickup switch, 3-ply
pickguard, synthetic bone nut, dual-wing string
tree, sealed tuning machines and four-bolt “F”-
stamped neck plate that marks this instrument as
the real deal – as Fender as it gets.
