collapse expand iconDescription

The Fender Player II Telecaster brings pure tones and timeless style. Designed for left-handed players, this solid-body electric guitar delivers the crisp articulation and twang the Telecaster is known for. The pair of Player Series single-coil pickups provide shimmering highs and tight lows with a modern touch. The maple neck's comfortable C-shape and smooth finish let you play at high speeds. By extending the fingerboard to 22 medium jumbo frets, Fender made soloing and bends easier. For precise intonation, they added bent-steel saddles to the bridge. Other premium features include volume and tone controls, a 3-way switch, 3-ply pickguard, synthetic bone nut and die-cast tuning machines. When you need a rugged, road-ready guitar to realize your musical vision, the Fender Player II Telecaster is a faithful companion.

Maple Neck Offers Fast, Comfortable Playing

The Fender Player II Telecaster's maple neck features a smooth Modern C profile that most players find fast and comfortable. 22 medium jumbo frets give you room for wide bends and intricate solos. A 9.5" radius maple fingerboard enhances playability further. Together, the neck and fingerboard facilitate fluid transitions across the strings and frets so you can focus on your technique and tone.

Player Series Pickups Deliver Iconic Tone

The Fender Player II Telecaster's pair of single-coil Telecaster pickups provide the crisp, articulate sound the model is known for. These pickups convey shimmering highs, tight lows and everything in between with a touch of modern edge. Together with the solid alder body, they produce tones ideal for country, rock, blues and more. A 3-way pickup selector switch lets you toggle between the bridge pickup, neck pickup or both for a range of single-coil combinations.

Vintage-Style Bridge Provides Resonance and Sustain

For the ideal blend of vintage vibe and modern tone, Fender equipped the Player II Telecaster with a string-through-body bridge and bent-steel saddles. The bridge anchors the strings to the alder body, allowing maximum resonance and sustain. The saddles are adjustable for precise intonation so your chords ring true and leads sing. Overall, this bridge gives the classic Tele twang a subtle kick and helps notes sustain until fadeout.

Premium Appointments for Professional Performance

To meet the needs of dedicated players, Fender included premium appointments on the Player II Telecaster. Die-cast tuning machines provide rock-solid tuning stability. A synthetic bone nut increases sustain and enhances tone. Volume and tone controls, a 3-ply pickguard and 4-bolt neck plate are standard. When you're ready to get serious, the Fender Player II Telecaster delivers professional features, performance and tone at an affordable price.
