Probably the most famous model in the Fender line-up, the Fender Player Stratocaster MN 3-Color Sunburst is a traditional interpretation of the classic with modern appointments. It features three powerful Player Series single-coils with Alnico V magnets for crisp and clear Strat sounds. The classic circuit with Master Volume and two Tone controls elicits signature Strat sounds in all positions. The Fender Player Stratocaster MN 3-Color Sunburst also features a synchronised 2-point tremolo for vibrato sounds, solid and precise die-cast tuners and a classic three-ply pickguard, while the synthetic bone nut promotes attack-rich and resonant sounds.
Absolutely loving this guitar so far. It is pretty hot for a Strat, which I like. It still sounds like a Strat but it handles gain really well and retains great clarity and note separation. The build quality is fantastic, with a solid build and flawless finish. If there was one criticism, it's that the fret ends are not quite as smoothly finished as they could be. With that said, there is not fret sprout or sharpness, they're just not quite as smooth and rounded off as they could be. The guitar did, however, arrive perfectly set up and playing really well, so no adjustment needed, and it stays in tune really well even with the floating trem. In all, I'm really pleased and this is that wonderful thing. It is an affordable instrument that I wouldn't hesitate to gig or record with and I have every faith that it would last the course. It's all the Strat you would ever realistically need.
