This guitar was an awesome addition to my small collection. It has a great Stratocaster tone and great build quality. The color is spectacular. Brian was a huge help in answering my questions. Would highly recommend this guitar and ordering through Sweetwater

Overall:Just received the 3 tone sunburst with the new rosewood fretboard(my favorite strat look). Very impressed with the guitar. In fact I love it. Very pleased they went back to rosewood on the fretboard. After I did my own setup it plays great & sounds great. Will probably buy another with a maple fret board. Player II Series rules.

I love this Stratocaster. First time in my life I've ever purchased a guitar brand new in the box. In the past i have always bought the demo or used.

It feels great on the hands, great sound and versatility for the pickups. The vintage tuners are just awesome, and the comeback of the rosewood is the best part of this guitar!
Overall:I am very pleased with the new Fender player ll strat. This is my first strat in this price range in a while. I find it a bit better in quality as far as wood, electronics, etc. than a Squier. I think the price ranges tell it the way it is. I have some Squiers too. Quality is a little hit and miss on them. The Fender at a bit more money has a great feeling neck. Electronics seem fine. I dont think a pickup replacement is necessary either. Depends on what you want. But the pickups that come in it are just fine. Seems a bit heavier than the Squiers. To me it just feels and sounds like better quality. I dont see why you would need to pay twice as much for a strat Professional. But there again the quality seems better again. Everything has went up in price by ...

Beautiful colour, looks fantastic, play great straight out of the box!Packaged well !Great service from Lee and the team,
I had an original player telecaster and this feels like a big upgrade. The rosewood fingerboard genuinely makes a big difference, it looks so much better. I had tonnes of issues with my original player, this is much better but I've dropped a star as there are some blemishes. What looks like glue marks visible next to the higher frets. Also the dots on top of fingerboard, some are the same colour as the satin neck, some are white. Minor things of course but noticeable. The important thing is it sounds great, and feels amazing to play. Anderton's team and delivery was superb.
Andertons delivered this plus an amp next day and it was well packed as usual. They are a reliable and trusted seller. The guitar is a Fender in just the colour I wanted (the local shop had a very limited range in stock). What more can be said?
Honestly feels no different to a Squire.The service I received from Anderson’s was appalling too.Guitar arrived 4 days late due to delivery driver not bothering to enter my building. Anderson’s wouldn’t even refund my “special delivery” extra cost I paid.Guitar arrived with signs of play, and when I sent them photos they just shrugged it off as “must of come out the factory like that”.When I buy a new guitar, I expect an unplayed new guitar without play marks.Guitar needs a full setup as intonation is out.Not what I expect from a Large scale company and a £700 guitar.Anderson’s did me a dirty on this one.
Overall:I was a fan of the Player I series because of the price & playability. But this Player II Series is even better. The rolled edges on the neck are fantastic. The modern C neck I have always liked very much. The new vintage tuners are smooth & great to look at. There are no negatives here in my opinion & these guitars are a home run & the perfect Strat. Well done Fender.
