Fender Player Plus Telecaster – Cosmic Jade with Maple Fingerboard

Solidbody Electric Guitar with Alder Body, Maple Neck, Maple Fingerboard, and 2 Single-coil Pickups – Cosmic Jade

A Vintage-tinged Tele with Modern Performance

Contrary to popular opinion, Telecasters aren’t limited to twang-inflected chicken pickin’. Case in point: The Fender Player Plus Tele. This solidbody electric guitar’s Player Plus Noiseless pickups are equally at home with jazz, blues, and rock as they are with country, plus they don’t produce 60-cycle hum — even if you plug into a saturated amp or a fuzz pedal. On top of that, the Player Plus Tele includes a series mode for expanded sonic textures. A modern “C”-shaped neck and 22-fret, 12-inch-radius fingerboard give you a decidedly contemporary feel with fast action and comfortable playability. You also get a synthetic bone nut, modern 6-saddle string-through bridge, and Fender deluxe cast/sealed locking tuners. If you appreciate classic Teles but crave modern playability and a broader tonal palette, pick up the Player Plus Telecaster. But be forewarned — you won’t want to put it down.

Vintage vibe with a modern edge

For their Player Plus Series guitars, Fender went back to the drawing board with updated radii, more historically accurate body shapes, new head-turning finishes, and a classic logo that harkens back to the Fenders of yesteryear. But these smooth-playing instruments also look to the future with modern enhancements that include 22-fret necks, upgraded bridges for better sustain, and state-of-the-art Player Plus Noiseless pickups that crank out legendary Fender tone by the boatload — without the hum. Beyond that, you get a push-pull tone knob that activates a series mode for searing humbucker-like tones.

Delivers punchy Tele sounds with zero hum

You’re sure to cut through the mix, thanks to this Telecaster’s Player Plus Noiseless single-coil pickups. These pups deliver the warm, sweet twang that has been with us since the dawn of the Tele, but without the dreaded hum that’s inherent with vintage-style pickups. If you’re into chicken pickin’, you’ll love the sound of this Telecaster’s bridge pickup. And single-line jazz and country lines sound heavenly on the neck pickup. Full-on amp distortion sounds great in either position, yielding tight lows and stinging highs. Aggressive twang, smoky jazz, saturated high-gain — the guitarists here at Musiekwereld have found that everything sounds great through these state-of-the-art pickups.

Easy-playing maple neck and pau ferro fingerboard

Leo Fender wasn’t a guitar player. In fact, he got his start repairing radios. When designing his original instruments, he had no idea that guitars weren’t supposed to have maple necks. This Player Plus Telecaster has the revered maple neck and a pau ferro fingerboard, supplying you with a snappy, easy-playing feel. In keeping with contemporary tastes, the Player Plus Telecaster has a more modern “C”-shaped maple neck with a satin urethane finish.
