Description

The Fender Player II Telecaster HH in Aquatone Blue brings classic Tele shape together with a pair of Alnico II humbuckers for a broader, thicker voice. If you want the feel and look of a Tele but need more headroom for rock, pop and modern worship, this model delivers. It keeps the familiar snap and clarity while adding smooth sustain and rich midrange.

A solid alder body gives you a balanced core tone. The modern C neck has a satin finish on the back for a fast, friction free feel and a gloss headstock face for a clean look. A slab rosewood fingerboard with rolled edges, a 9.5 inch radius and 22 medium jumbo frets makes chords comfortable and bends tidy. It is a neck that feels ready on day one and only gets better with play.

The Player Series Alnico II humbuckers are voiced for articulate highs and full lows. Use the three position blade to move from warm neck textures to a tighter bridge growl or combine both for rounded rhythm sounds. A simple master volume and master tone keep the layout intuitive on stage.

Hardware is built for tuning stability and accurate setup. The six saddle strings through body hardtail bridge with bent steel saddles supports solid intonation and a firm feel. ClassicGear tuners with an 18:1 ratio make fine adjustments easy. Scale length is the familiar 25.5 inches, and the factory set strings are 09–42 for an easy playing start.

In the box you get the guitar and documentation. A case or gig bag is not supplied as standard. Setup is straightforward with common tools, and a 3.16 inch hex key fits the truss rod. If you tour or teach, the Aquatone Blue finish is a smart, stage friendly colour that stands out without shouting.

This is an authentic Fender instrument from the Player II series and is covered by Fender’s limited warranty.

Features

Player Series Alnico II humbuckers

A matched pair of Fender Player Series Alnico II humbuckers gives articulate highs, firm lows and a clear mid push. They move smoothly from warm neck textures to a tighter bridge growl, so you can cover clean pop, classic rock or heavier riffs without swapping guitars.

Simple three way switching and master controls

The three way blade selects neck, both or bridge, with a single master volume and master tone for quick changes on stage. It is an uncluttered layout that is easy to learn and hard to knock out of place mid song.

Alder body with classic Tele feel

A solid alder body delivers a balanced core tone with clear attack. The familiar Telecaster shape sits comfortably against the body and keeps the controls right where your picking hand expects them. The Aquatone Blue gloss finish stands out on stage but stays tasteful.

Modern C neck with satin back

The modern C maple neck feels fast and friendly from day one. A smooth satin finish on the back helps your fretting hand glide during position shifts, while the gloss headstock face keeps the look unmistakably Fender.

Rosewood fingerboard with rolled edges

A slab rosewood fingerboard with rolled edges gives a broken in feel straight away. The 241 mm (9.5 inch) radius and 22 medium jumbo frets make bends clean and chords tidy, which helps whether you favour rhythm parts or melodic leads.

Six saddle strings through body hardtail

The Strat style hardtail bridge uses six individual bent steel saddles for accurate intonation and solid tuning stability. The strings through body design adds a touch of extra sustain and a firm playing feel that suits palm muting and tight rhythm work.

ClassicGear tuners with 18:1 ratio

Fender ClassicGear machines combine vintage looks with a precise 18 to 1 gear ratio. Fine tuning is smooth and steady, and day to day stability is reliable for studio sessions and long rehearsals.

Fender scale length and nut for familiar tension

The 648 mm (25.5 inch) scale keeps string tension lively and note attack crisp. A 42 mm (1.650 inch) synthetic bone nut aids tuning stability and helps open chords ring clearly.

Ready to play setup details

Factory strings are 09 to 42 nickel plated steel and the head adjust truss rod uses a common 3.16 inch hex key, so seasonal tweaks are simple. No case is included as standard, which helps keep the weight and price down if you travel light.

Quality hardware and tidy finishing

Knurled flat top knobs, a three ply pickguard and nickel chrome hardware complete a clean, durable build. It is a straightforward tool that looks smart on stage and is easy to maintain between gigs.
