FenderPlayer II Stratocaster HSS Electric Guitar - Chameleon

An alder body provides the balanced resonance and clear midrange response long associated with Fender electrics, while the exclusive Chameleon finish shifts in appearance as light moves across the instrument. Player Series Alnico V single-coils preserve the clarity and articulation of the neck and middle positions, while a Seymour Duncan SH-4 JB humbucker adds muscular output, upper-midrange bite and singing sustain at the bridge. A Modern C roasted maple neck and slab rosewood fingerboard combine smooth rolled edges, a 9.5" radius and 22 medium-jumbo frets for comfortable, fluid playability. Complete with a two-point synchronized tremolo and ClassicGear tuners, this exclusive HSS Strat brings a distinctive visual edge and expanded tonal range to the Player II platform. Contoured Alder Body With a Shimmering Chameleon Finish The Player II Stratocaster HSS starts with an alder body, providing a balanced tonal foundation with clear mids, defined lows and an articulate response across its varied pickup voices. The Strat's iconic contoured double-cut body rests naturally against the player whether seated, standing or performing on stage. Its appearance changes with the angle and lighting, bringing a dynamic visual character to the familiar Stratocaster silhouette. A gloss polyester finish provides a smooth, durable exterior, complemented by a three-ply parchment pickguard and aged-white controls for classic Fender contrast. Roasted Maple Modern C Neck With Smooth Rolled Edges A roasted maple neck gives this Player II Stratocaster HSS a distinctive foundation for its modern playing feel, shaped to Fender's comfortable Modern C profile and finished in satin urethane along the back for smooth movement beneath the hand. The slab rosewood fingerboard features a 9.5" radius and rolled edges that soften the transition along the sides of the neck for a comfortably broken-in feel from the outset. Twenty-two medium-jumbo frets provide ample surface for confident bends and precise fretting, while the 25.5" scale maintains the familiar tension and response associated with Fender electrics. White dot inlays and a gloss urethane headstock face complete the clean, understated neck presentation. Seymour Duncan JB Adds High-Output Power to Classic Strat Chime The Player II Stratocaster HSS Chameleon combines two Player Series Alnico V Strat single-coils with a Seymour Duncan SH-4 JB humbucker for a wide range of clear, articulate and driven sounds. The neck and middle pickups retain the sparkling highs, musical mids and responsive character associated with Strat single-coils, while the JB brings a fuller low end, crisp highs and pronounced upper-midrange presence to the bridge position. Its hotter output pushes amps with added sustain and harmonic richness, giving heavy chords greater weight while helping single-note leads cut through with a singing quality. A five-way blade switch provides intuitive access to all three pickups and their combinations, with one tone control dedicated to the neck and middle pickups and a second dedicated to the bridge humbucker. Two-Point Tremolo for Smooth, Expressive Pitch Control A two-point synchronized tremolo gives the Player II Stratocaster HSS smooth, responsive control for everything from subtle vibrato to deeper pitch bends. Bent steel saddles provide individual adjustment for accurate intonation and string height, while Fender ClassicGear tuning machines offer smooth, dependable tuning adjustment with traditional Fender styling. A synthetic bone nut provides a consistent contact point across the 1.65" width, complemented by nickel and chrome hardware throughout the instrument. Together, the bridge, tuners and familiar Strat control layout provide a straightforward hardware foundation for the guitar's broad tonal and expressive range. From glassy neck and middle sounds to thicker rhythm tones and sustaining bridge leads, its HSS configuration provides plenty of room to move between contrasting textures without sacrificing the immediate feel of a Stratocaster. Distinctive in appearance and expansive in sound, the Fender Player II Stratocaster HSS Chameleon puts a fresh spin on one of the most adaptable designs in the Player II lineup.
