Fender Player II Modified Telecaster SH RW, Dusk

Full Description

Effortless playability

The Fender Player II Modified Telecaster is built for smooth, fast, and comfortable playability. Its modern "C"-shaped maple neck provides an easy grip, while the satin urethane finish on the back ensures effortless movement up and down the fretboard. The 9.5"-radius rosewood fingerboard, paired with rolled edges, offers a worn-in feel right out of the box, making every bend and chord transition seamless. With 22 medium jumbo frets, you get extra room for expressive playing, perfect for intricate solos or extended bends. Strumming, picking, or shredding feels natural on a neck designed to enhance every playing style.

Versatile SH pickup configuration

This Tele is all about tonal versatility, thanks to its unique combination of a Player II Modified humbucker in the neck and a noiseless Tele bridge pickup. The humbucker delivers thick, rich tones with plenty of output, making it perfect for high-gain leads and full-bodied chords. A push/pull tone control splits the humbucker, letting you access bright and articulate single-coil tones when needed. The noiseless Tele bridge pickup retains the classic twang and bite of a traditional Tele, without the unwanted hum, ensuring a clean and crisp response even in high-gain situations. From smooth warmth to punchy clarity and cutting twang, this guitar adapts to any sound you need.

Enhanced tuning stability

Staying in tune is crucial, and this Tele is built for rock-solid stability. The combination of short post locking tuners, a TUSQ nut, and a modern string tree ensures accurate tuning, no matter how aggressive your playing gets. The locking tuners provide a sharper break angle over the nut, improving sustain while also making string changes fast and hassle-free. The TUSQ nut enhances tuning consistency and resonance, ensuring every note rings true. Hard-hitting rhythms, expressive bends, and intense performances won’t knock this guitar out of tune, so you can focus on your sound without worry.

Upgraded hardware for superior performance

The Player II Modified Telecaster is designed for both comfort and reliability, with hardware upgrades that improve intonation, sustain, and overall feel. The modern Tele bridge features six block brass saddles, ensuring precise intonation while adding warmth and sustain to every note. The bridge plate is cut away on the sides, giving your picking hand full freedom of movement, ideal for hybrid picking techniques. Fender’s high-quality electronics include a treble-bleed circuit that preserves high-end clarity when rolling back the volume, keeping your tones crisp and defined. Every component of this guitar is fine-tuned to deliver the best performance possible, making it a Tele that truly stands out.
