Product overview

About this model

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. A Modern C roasted maple neck and slab rosewood fingerboard combine smooth rolled edges, a 9.5" radius and 22 medium-jumbo frets for the comfortable, fluid playability of the Player II series. A Player Series Alnico V Tele neck pickup provides clear, articulate single-coil tone, while the Quarter Pounder contributes muscular output, upper-midrange growl and added saturation at the bridge. A six-saddle string-through-body bridge and ClassicGear tuners complete a distinctive Player II Tele built to stand apart in sound, feel and style. Alder Body With a Shimmering Chameleon Color-Shift Finish The Player II Telecaster starts with an alder body, providing a balanced tonal foundation with clear mids, defined lows and an articulate response that complements the direct character of the Telecaster design. Its appearance changes with the angle and lighting, bringing a dynamic visual character to the familiar single-cut silhouette without altering the straightforward design at its core. A gloss polyester finish provides a smooth, durable exterior, while the contrasting black three-ply pickguard gives the shifting body color a clean visual frame. Roasted Maple Modern C Neck With Smooth Rolled Edges A roasted maple neck gives this Player II Telecaster a distinctive foundation for its modern playing feel, shaped to Fender's comfortable Modern C profile and finished in satin urethane 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. Quarter Pounder Bridge Pickup for High-Output Tele Punch The Player II Telecaster Chameleon pairs two distinct single-coil voices for a wider take on classic Telecaster tone. A Player Series Alnico V Tele neck pickup delivers clear highs, musical midrange and smooth articulation for chords and melodic playing, while the Seymour Duncan Quarter Pounder bridge pickup brings considerably more muscle to the other end of the three-way switch. Its high-output coil and oversized 1/4" Alnico V rod magnets produce powerful attack, upper-midrange growl and added saturation, giving bridge leads and rhythm parts an almost P-90-like weight while retaining single-coil definition. Master Volume and Tone controls keep sound shaping immediate, with the middle switch position combining both pickups for another distinct tonal option. Six-Saddle Tele Bridge for Precise Intonation and Stability A six-saddle string-through-body Tele bridge gives each string independent intonation adjustment, bringing precise modern setup capability to the familiar Telecaster hardware layout. Block steel saddles provide a solid contact point at the bridge, while Fender ClassicGear tuning machines combine traditional styling with smooth, dependable adjustment at the headstock. A synthetic bone nut supports consistent string spacing across the 1.65" width, complemented by nickel and chrome hardware throughout the instrument. Together, these practical appointments give the Player II Telecaster a straightforward, reliable foundation for everyday playing while preserving the clean functionality that has always been central to the Telecaster design. Together, those upgrades give the guitar a distinctive personality while retaining the clarity, response and familiar simplicity players expect from a Telecaster. From articulate neck pickup sounds to muscular bridge tones, this limited-edition Fender Player II Telecaster offers a fresh visual and tonal take on a modern Fender staple.
