That jazz master in green is calling me, I gotta go 🤣🤣🤣

[@tomaslopez2940]

My heart says strat but my needs say tele

[@rollingstart_90s]

Is this an instruction from Fender? Retailers are now referring to the Mexican made guitars as "made in Ensenada". Even the Fender executive only said Ensenada, on Andertons video. People, retailers and Fender themselves have always talked about Mexico, or Ensenada Mexico, but not anymore. Just Ensenada, which is now printed on the headstocks of these new guitars.

[@Dragon_rls]

Believe me. Fender is in the selling market (don't even think about Reverb). Anyway, Best 2 them. But if you're savay, and have an understanding of the guitar market. You'll know what path to take.

[@chris5375]

Love this green Telecaster ❤

[@mikecarreca7864]

Great sounds. I prefer either a red or yellow Strats with rosewood fingerboard.

[@derekhell666]

what are the Jazzmasters made of? On the site it says 'solid body.'

[@jswen2477]

if i can get that aquatone color on strat hss with rosewood ill definitely buy it

[@MarbsMusic]

That green tele is dang sexah!

[@Mr.Smith_777]

Need a paranormal B-bender tele with roasted maple necks.

[@michaelstacey6289]

What pedal(s) is Don running through?

[@mattmanley7118]

I’m glad RW is back but gosh despite that I just don’t like the bigger headstock. That said rolled edges and RW returning are excellent. I’m more than ok with my Player Strat from 2018 though

[@mikegutterman3427]

As a Jaguar fan I am so tired of Fender omitting the chrome on a Jag! Jags must have all the chrome hardware! The blue is beautiful but I can't buy a Jag without the chrome... just looks wrong.

Well boohoo

[@richardnagamitsu1582]

What are the improvements?

[@Squall6575]

Rolled fingerboard edges, rosewood and pretty much thats it

[@kidgloves2]

@@Squall6575rolled fingerboards are a big improvement for me. Rosewood is really nice aesthetically. Plus tinted maple and some cool new colors. Definitely better.

[@Squall6575]

@@kidgloves2 yea I agree. i previously wouldnt have even looked at buying player series due to the aesthetics and the feel of the neck, but this does make them more enticing for sure. Its just that it might not be enough of a change for some

[@thesmellycatjazz]

Single coils on the offsets and you don't have to pay the CME/Andertons upcharge or it

[@keestoft250]

Hi Sweetwater, maybe you could use your industry heft to persuade Fender to seriously work on their attitude towards left handed players?

[@thecompletejake]

Player II plus on the way?

[@jhardindrums]

Seriously disappointed with the left handed options. Already had been left out of other lines (Vintera, Performer), just to take the one lineup that actually offered some different left handed options and gut it. No left handed basses?! Chance to offer a nice left hand offset, but none of those either. Understand having slim pickings with guitars, but Fender has consistently shown they just hate left handed players.

[@zaxzumu4605]

That's why I'm so grateful that my guitar teacher MADE me learn right handed when I first started before I was fully invested in playing left-handed. When my mother asked why (I was like five) he told her it was because I would have better luck finding a guitar I liked that way.

[@nicolasfernando697]

Just play right handed, im also lefty

[@obsoletecd-rom]

This is why I refuse to buy anything fender and never will. Lots of other companies offering much better lefty options.

[@kidgloves2]

I’m mad nobody makes a left handed piano. With the bass notes on the right and the treble notes on the left.

[@keestoft250]

Maybe some people are less dominant handed and can switch a lot easier. The issue is with Fender, who have no obligation to support left handers as long as right hand guitar sales are healthy. Martin and Taylor offer all their catalogue left-handed.

[@scottbaker1991]

what is the difference between these and the player plus?

[@thesmellycatjazz]

I feel like this is something you should just google

[@sweetwater]

Hi, scottbaker1991. The guitars are fairly similar in terms of build and feel. The Plus has a few modern appointments added. The main ones being a flatter 12” radius, noiseless pickups, and locking tuners. Thanks for your interest! Charlie Davis, Sweetwater Sales Engineer, [phone] ext. 1320, [e-mail]

[@ardiris2715]

OT: How about, just once, giving away a left-handed guitar. (:

[@kristenm3644]

All the set was missing was a guitar on the couch.

[@grawman67]

Really disappointed in how they handled the offsets and lefty options

[@thesmellycatjazz]

They pretty much fixed the issue with the offsets with this update. They aren't perfect since they're holding the rhythm circuits and proper bridge on the Vintera series, but it's step in the right direction.

[@grawman67]

@@thesmellycatjazz I agree this are closer to traditional than the Player 1s but I think I prefer those since they weren't trying to be traditional. They were very different and modern These feel like they're in a weird middle ground where they aren't modern and aren't traditional enough to please either group But that's just my opinion on them

[@superblondeDotOrg]

My newest guitar is an EART headless from last year and I play it every day. Just sayin'. Fender needs to INNOVATE not Regurgitate.
