Fender has just dropped the biggest sequel since The Dark Knight with the Player II Series refreshing its box-office range of mid-priced electric guitars and basses with a suite of new features, and ushering in the return of something that we haven’t seen for a while on Fender instruments at this price point. Yes, rosewood fingerboards are back.
Quite honestly, the unveiling of the Player Plus II Series comes as something of a shock. Here we were thinking that Fender went big last week, launching its Timber Series Telecasters, tempting many of is to ditch the guitar cable for good and roam free range with the Telepath Wireless System – not to mention the comprehensive refresh of the Squier Affinity Series, and ergo some of the best cheap electric guitars you’ll find.
