Superb new series!
KindEdward 11.07.2018
First of all, I ordered this guitar because I was looking for a Fender Stratocaster but the American Professional Series was too expensive for my budget. I was quite lucky, because the moment I decided I wanted a real strat was the moment that the Player Series came out.

The good aspects:
- The sound is amazing. Great pick ups with a nice output.
- Satin finish on the neck makes it comfortable and easy to play.
- Flawless fret job.
- The colour is beautiful!
- Holds tune quite well even when abused by the two point tremolo system.
- Tone configuration for brigde pick up adds a new tone diversity to stratocasters that just was not there in the past.

The bad aspects:
- The Volume and Tone knobs feel a bit cheap in my personal opinion. Not such a tidy construction here.
- The tremolo block is a bit thin for my taste. I would expect a 555 euro guitar to have a solid and thick tremolo block, but sadly this is not the case.
- I would prefer if this guitar had a tortoise shell pickguard to better suit the white colour. But this is a matter of personal preference. I might purchase one eventually.

Nevertheless, the guitar plays great, sounds as you would expect from a Fender guitar and looks absolutely stunning. I am well satisfied with my purchase.

This might not happen in your country, but the delivery of this guitar took a staggering 7 days (week days) which is not a good service at all. The guitar arrived Friday on the 6th of July in the nearest UPS station in my country. But it was only delivered at my house the following tuesday on the 10th. The reason? Thomann misplaced my address and I had to call UPS, thus spending more of my personal income, since they charge you for phone calls, to solve this matter. Not pleased with my service. Thankfully, the guitar arrived in good condition, otherwise I would definitely issue a refund.
But this was the first time that it happened, so I'm positive it will not happen to anyone else.

Spectacular sound and value for money!
zoki665 11.01.2022
Having limited myself to heavier styles of music greatly featuring high gain humbuckers and gain through the roof, I've skirted around buying a Strat for some time. In the last few years however, I've broadened my musical horizons into more of a Bluesy territory, bought this guitar, and let me tell you... It sounds incredible!

Out of the box it tunes beautifully, the intonation is solid, and the stock hardware sounds great even plugged straight into my Blackstar/Orange amps without any effects processing. Comparing it to its USA counterparts I can honestly say that for this price there's no better instrument.

If you're on the fence about pulling the trigger, don't be. You'd be hard pressed finding a guitar that sounds this good at such a price!

Great guitar but broken
Oyvi 10.01.2022
This was my first Stratocaster and the first experience was a bit poor as the guitar made a ton of noise and even worse when played on. I have built some guitars from scratch previously and after some troubleshooting I found out that the jack on the guitar was faulty. I first tried resoldingering it but that didnt help much, ended up swapping it with a switchcraft jack and now its smooth as butter.

I could have contacted Thomann for a replacement but I live so far away that I decided to just fix it myself, I am planning on upgrading the pickups and tuners later anyway.

I love the color on this guitar, looks really great and its a shame you can't find a Player Plus in pure white.

The neck and playability are top notch on this guitar.

Fender - enough said
Shadetreepaul 11.03.2020
Fender makes the best guitars in the world - and this guitar doesn't disappoint. Perfectly playable out of the box (but I adjusted the springs because I prefer less float in my bridge). Sounds amazing (like a strat should). Plays amazing (like a strat should). Looks amazing... well you get the point.

A phenomenal guitar
Adrian0072 20.08.2020
Look, Fender Mexico is not that far from Fender California. Mexican Strats are still phenomenal instruments. I have upgraded a lot of this guitar to fit my taste but what I began with still was a phenomenal guitar. Just Google the reviews for this series of Stratocaster and everyone says the same thing: great value for money.

Does what a strat is meant for
Kantvi 15.09.2023
I bought this guitar for glassy clean tones and it does the job! Everything that a strat is mean to do, the fender player stratocaster does it greatly! The only con would be that it came a bit dusty and with a tiny dirt mark, but honestly I'm not disappointed. Super happy with my purchase and Thomann sent it to me in a very short span of time.

Strat lives matter!
xrichie 15.04.2021
First of all thank you Thomann for great customer experience (in fact my first with you), everything went just smoothly.

The guitar itself is just great. Beautiful classical instrument made by Fender where everything is on the right place and proved by ages and millions of players all around the world. I was wondering what MIM Fender quality will be... but it is more than OK. I have MIA Fender Tele and from the quality point of view both guitars are very similar... equal I would say.

PROS:
- It is a Strat that I missed in my garage ;-)
- Sound variability thanks to 3 pickups (btw sounding just fine) and its combinations
- It is well made, no issues at all
- Beautiful white color! (Butter cream was my second option, but I am finally happy that I made the decision to go with PWT)
- it arrived almost "ready to rock" no major adjustments needed (frets, neck... everything fine)
- After looong time quitar with Maple neck that I am having... It is nice experience at all that I recommed to those who are rosewood supporters as I am.

CONS:
- so far nothing, I got what I expected and ordered

For those who are hesitating to buy for some reason I have just one advice... GO FOR IT! ;-)

Such a great instrument!
Andy Partsi 20.04.2021
I used to play with a stagg guitar which was for beginners and now i switched to this one. The feel is totally different. In comparison with the other one, it feels like holding a real guitar and that brings me inspiration and joy. The sound is much better and also the quality cannot compare. You will not regret buying one.
