USED - Fender Modern Player Telecaster - Black

This is a second hand Fender Modern Player Telecaster. It is in good condition, apart from one scratch on the front (as pictured). Otherwise it is a great guitar, perfect for the player looking for something versatile for gigging situations.

The Fender Modern Player Telecaster Plus is something of a Frankenstien's monster featuring a HSS configuration with a bridge humbucker single coil middle pickup taken from a Strat but with the classic 'lipstick' Telecaster neck pickup. 5-way Strat style switching and a coil tap mini switch for the humbucker allows huge tonal flexibility not normally possible on a Telecaster which means you can use the Fender Modern Player Telecaster Plus as you main axe to cover loads of different sounds.

The pine tonewood body is lightweight and confers a balanced tone similar to spruce (acoustically) which is transfered beautifully to the special Modern Player pickups. The maple neck has a fingerboard radius of 9.5" which is typical for modern Fender guitars and a good middle gound for a range of playing styles.
