Fender Player Series Strat MN PWT 4-stars Reviews

Nut problem

Had to return the item because of the poorly finished nut lines. String was getting out of the nut slot whenever I bent the string on lower frets. But it's a great choice for lower budget. Will buy again.

Fender Player Series Stratocaster

Nice guitar, not very nice paintjob, but only if you look very closely. Pickups sound great in my opinion, potis and switch feel very nice too. Nut wasn't cut very well, so the low E and A strings were buzzing alot whenever I played powerchords, yet it was fine with softer stuff. Still I'd rate it 4.0 / 5.0, the positives definetly outweight the negatives.

Would I buy it again? Maybe, idk

Good strat if you don't want to break the bank

I have this for almost 7-8 months. I can't say it's bad out of the box but recently i decided to make an upgrade with seymour duncun pickups and another shell pickguard. These are just personal preference.

If you are happy with "hum" noise you can stick to the ones that the guitar comes with, but i'm a more of melodic guitar soloist aka Andy Timmons so...

First impressions are pretty good, great looks, great sounds, some sharp frets here and there, maybe a slightly high action for my taste, but nothing that can't be easy fix.

The colour is great, so properly varnished. The pickguard is slightly more greyish/greenish than the body, but it fits perfectly. It is not "perfect" like the American or Japanese made Fender, but the price of those guitars are double or higher.

Overall, this is very good stratocaster, especially for the money, 20 years ago you couldn't buy anything that good for that money. Nice job Fender!
