New Guitar Day Unboxing a Fender Player II Stratocaster

Happy Birthday

Beautiful!

Nice.. be-careful with the knife 🔪..happy birthday🎂

Mark, do you think 2 post Fender locking tuners, would fit right on, without any modifications? Would they drop straight in?

I may be a snob- I only ever buy USA made Telecasters-( I have 3) I find the Mexican ones a little rough around the edges quality wise - Never had a Mex Strat- that one looks great by the way

Nice color Bro, real sweet.

Needs a bit of work.
Right....MIM.
So goes that myth about the difference between American made strats and MIM strats, the personnel who make them and where they make them - and that- being the only difference.
They always need more than a good set up, and that's a drag.

Just got mine today the sunburst one love it

Iv had two mims, impressed with them , just have to tweak them a bit. Yours looks great. Super.😊

your videos are great; thanks !

The pickups in the Player II strats are the same ones as in the original Player series. I called and emailed Fender on this and they confirmed it. The guitars with new pickuos are the offset guitars.

Just got mine in birch green and rosewood. No QC issues with mine out of the box as some have found.
First time I've been able to afford a guitar with a real Fender decal. Not dissapointed, It's a honey.

Congratulation with your new Stratocaster. It's my favorite guitar too. Big like 86. All the best Olav

Great looking Strat. Played Bass for years, now switching to lead. My players series Precision Bass is 4 years o;d and plays like new. Set ups are not hard to do, just take your time.Bought one of the Amazon debut Strats for $119.00 Usd and the set up went smooth., adjusted neck relief, adjusted the saddle, did the intonation, changed the strings to Fender 150s. One tip I always do, gind or shave the lead from a pencil and put the shavings in the nut slots, helps with string slippage..
