Fender Stratocaster Player II Modified HSS Floyd Rose RW Dusk

Essential Information About the Fender Player II Modified Stratocaster HSS Floyd Rose, Rosewood Fingerboard, Dusk

• "Modern C" Profile and 12" / 305 mm radius fingerboard with rolled edges for modern comfort and easy bends.


• HSS Configuration: Player II Modified humbucker at the bridge + Noiseless single coils at the neck and middle positions, covering rock to funk with reduced background noise.


• Optimized Electronics: treble-bleed on volume and push/pull for splitting the humbucker to regain more "Strat" style attack.


• Floyd Rose Special double locking (nut + tremolo) for pronounced vibrato effects and enhanced tuning stability.

A Stratocaster Designed for Modern Playing, in the Player Spirit

An icon since the 1950s, the Stratocaster remains a benchmark for its versatility and ergonomics. This Player II Modified version continues the tradition of Fender guitars made in Mexico, with a more contemporary approach: refined neck feel, more modern pickups, and gear tailored for today's techniques like the Floyd Rose and coil splitting.

Who Is It For, and What Styles?

This Strat is especially aimed at intermediate to advanced guitarists seeking a responsive Fender capable of delivering clean rhythms, heavy crunch, and lead playing without compromise. The bridge humbucker provides the body and power needed for rock/metal, while positions 2 and 4 retain Strat-typical tones suited for pop, funk, or modern blues. The Floyd Rose suits players who use the vibrato expressively (dive bombs, wide vibratos) and appreciate locked tuning.

Sound

The alder body offers a very "Fender" balance: clear mids, firm lows, and bright highs, ideal for cutting through a mix. The pair of Noiseless single coils at the neck and middle maintain the expected brightness and attack while minimizing hum, practical for stage or home studio. At the bridge, the Player II Modified Humbucker delivers higher output and density for riffs and solos. Thanks to the push/pull (Tone 2), you can split the humbucker for a sharper response and tones closer to a traditional Strat, all controlled by a very versatile 5-position selector.

Recommended Compatible Accessories

To stay close to the original setup, favor a set of strings .009-.042 (such as Fender USA 250L). Picks of various thicknesses are also an excellent complement to exploit the dynamics of the Noiseless positions and the power of the humbucker.
