Fender 75th Anniversary Player II Telecaster Daphne Blue

This Fender Player II Telecaster celebrates 75 years of character in Daphne Blue

A classic Telecaster with a festive detail and modern comfort: this Fender 75th Anniversary Player II Telecaster combines Daphne Blue with a rosewood fretboard and a special anniversary neck plate. The iconic design remains simple and uncluttered, allowing you to focus on playing. Whether you are looking for your first serious electric guitar or a reliable foundation for rehearsals, this model offers the look of a classic without the need to adapt to a pronounced vintage neck.

The two Player Series Alnico 5 single-coil pickups deliver the signature Telecaster versatility. The bridge pickup sounds bright and direct, ideal for rhythmic accents and riffs that cut through the mix. The neck pickup provides a rounder tone for melodies and quieter passages. In the middle position, you can hear both pickups together. A three-way selector switch, master volume, and master tone keep the controls straightforward. This makes it easy to discover how pickup selection and your own playing style shape the sound, from bright chords to a fuller overdriven tone through your amplifier.

The alder body is finished in polyester. The bolt-on maple neck features a Modern C profile and a satin urethane finish. The rosewood fretboard combines rounded edges with a 9.5-inch radius and 22 medium jumbo frets. The scale length is 648 mm, and the synthetic bone nut is 42 mm wide. The string-through-body bridge has six individual steel block saddles, allowing the intonation of each string to be adjusted. Fender ClassicGear tuners, a three-ply parchment pickguard, and nickel/chrome hardware complete the package. It comes pre-strung with Fender .009-.042 strings; a case is not included.

Strum a chord, choose your favorite pickup position, and discover why the simple Telecaster formula is still so inviting to play after 75 years.
