Fender Player Telecaster

A review of my Fender Player Telecaster. This one has single coils. This Fener Player Telecaster comes in polar white with an alder body which has a gloss finish. The neck is maple with a C shape profile and 9.5" radius however the frets on this Player Telecaster are a little sharp and could really do with some work. Personally I love string-through body bridges on a Telecaster along with the 6 individual bridge saddles - to me, these are far easier to intonate compared to Fender Telecasters with just 3 bridge saddles. One huge plus that the Fender Player Telecaster has over the Squier Telecaster range is that is has 22 frets rather than the 21 frets that you find on a Squier Telecaster. Obviously with a Fender Telecaster you get the Fender on the headstock, the skunk stripe on the back of the neck and the walnut plug on the headstock. You also get the Fender "F" stamped onto the neck plate. The Telecaster control plate has the volume knob so close to the pickup selector switch that very often, you knock the volume when changing pickups. This mod will fix that issue. Other great mods for your Telecaster include a 4-way switch or a 5-way switch: These add additional functionality to your Telecaster in the form of a series setting - so the pickups work together like a humbucker. And an out-of-phase setting - can be handy in certain situations. Here's videos on those mods: 4 way Telecaster switch mod :    • Video   5 way Telecaster switch mod :    • 5 Way Telecaster switch   On top of that, other great upgrades for your Telecaster include changing the standard steel bridge saddles to brass ones, and dressing the end of the frets - you may have noticed that Fender Player Telecasters come with scratchy or rough fret ends. Fixing this greatly improves playability.
