Fender Player II Mustang®, Maple Fingerboard, Hialeah Yellow
Model #: 0140462561
NEW! But recently discontinued in this finish – last chance to get one!
This “Hialeah Yellow” is not a million miles from what they’ve called “Buttercream” in the past. It’s like the original white Mustangs that played a thousand gigs in smokey pubs and clubs.
Step into the spotlight and experience iconic Fender® sound and style with the Player II Mustang® — a stage-ready guitar with contemporary updates to power your performance and inspire your playing.
The Player II Mustang radiates timeless Fender charm, but under the hood, it’s primed for today’s players. Everything about the neck is designed for fast and fluid playability, from the Modern “C”-profile with silky satin urethane finish on the back to the comfy 9.5”-radius slab rosewood or maple fingerboard with smooth rolled edges and 22 medium jumbo frets. A classic alder body is available in both timeless Fender finishes and never-before-seen colors unearthed from the archives. Player Series Alnico V Single-Coil Mustang® pickups offer crystalline highs, musical mids and tight lows that elevate any genre. The 3-way toggle switch lets you easily dial in everything from glassy neck pickup chime to cutting bridge pickup snarl and all points in between, while a 6-saddle hardtail bridge, bent steel saddles and ClassicGear™ tuners ensure precise tuning stability for the flexibility to explore endless sonic possibilities.
Perfect for crafting your own sound, the Player II Mustang has the looks, tone and feel that only a Fender delivers.
