The Player Series is the best guitar on the market. I have the original Player Series Strat and it is in a league of its own. I have 6 Fender Custom Shop guitars and when it comes to high speed soloing I will choose the Player Series over the Custom Shops. I haven't tried the Players 2 but I'm sure it will be good as well. Don't let the price fool you, it is a performance guitar.

[@CreamCityMusic]

Right on! We're sold so many Players over the years and we often hear the same sentiment from their owners who have multiple guitars :)

[@splitzerx570]

Let me guess? Buttercream Strat?

[@tylerk1013]

Are the pickups *actually* Jazzmaster pickups? Are they wound wide and flat? Or are they like the V-Mods and strat pickups in JM housing?

[@ManuelAlonsoBlasco]

Wide and flat, I've seen them in other videos

[@CreamCityMusic]

Manuel nailed it!

[@GeoffByrdMusic]

How do the frets feel? I know they are rolled, but does it feel pretty nice? Also, those pickups sound a little more rock and roll and a little less vintage. How do you think the pickups compare to say the 40th Squire vintage edition Jazzmaster?

[@CreamCityMusic]

The frets feel great. These are really great playing instruments. I'd also say the pickups sound better than the 40ths. Fuller...more rich

[@GeoffByrdMusic]

@@CreamCityMusic Nice playing and great looking, great sounds. I might have to buy one of these.

[@jacobbrandofficial]

Great playing!! How does this compare with the Vintera II Jazzmaster? Wanna get one but can’t decide which

[@CreamCityMusic]

In our opinion this guitar plays better.

[@jacobbrandofficial]

@@CreamCityMusic thanks for your input! Appreciate it!

[@mokitaco]

Great video! How does it compare to the JMJM? It’s about a $330 difference, so not sure if it’s worth it. Is the neck feel comparable?

[@THE-CRT]

Would you say the blue is more dull and vintage looking or vibrant? Some photos fender has really don't provide the best accuracy as there's differences in color for almost every photo of this finish, I myself am looking for a more dull blue there's just something about the duller blue that's amazing. (Most noticeable when hovering over the mustang in aquatone blue on sweetwater's website, versus when you actual pull up the listing.)

[@CreamCityMusic]

Great question. It’s definitely more dull in person. We managed to keep this one for launch. It’s more muted in person

[@tylerk1013]

How does it do w/ thinner strings like .09s and .10s?

[@martianmurray]

It comes with 9’s

[@martianmurray]

It has the Mustang type saddles so the strings shouldn’t pop out

[@CreamCityMusic]

Does great! Those are the factory gauge

[@benjamingilmore825]

When you were doing the bridge chicken picking was the tone rolled back? Amazing playing as always!

[@araminati_5002]

Nope, wide open

[@benjamingilmore825]

This or American pro ii?

[@igorfleury7855]

i have both, this sounds better and the finish is as good as the american pro ii
