Great Stratocaster
I have owned many guitars since 1979, and this is honestly one of the best new guitars I have ever purchased.
The Olympic Pearl finish looks kinda biege is flawless and the pearloid pickguard is the perfect match.
The matte finish on the back of the neck is nice and slick. Plus the 12" radius gives a nice flat fretboard. It's also the widest neck I've ever had on a Strat.
The locking tuners and gig bag, which is way better than I expected, are a nice touch as well.
Now to the sound. The noiseless pickups are really sweet sounding without the typical "Strat hum". Pull the bottom tone knob and it adds the neck pickup for some really great tones.
Overall the Player and Player Plus are excellent guitars. Fender really made quality and attention to detail very important. The build quality rivals the US made Strats. That might sound crazy, and several years ago it WOULD have been, but now the Mexican made Strats are GREAT!
