The radical sweep, angular body design provides several advantages, including outstanding balance and unrestricted access to the uppermost frets.
The Fireball humbuckers have the classic zig-zag pole piece screws and stamped logo of Seventies Seth Lover Wide Range pickups but with an entirely new voice.
An S-1 switch inset in the master volume control makes it easy to quickly switch to splitcoil tones with the press of a button.
The two-point synchronized tremolo and locking tuners allow guitarists to perform aggressive whammy bends and deep dives without going out of tune.
THE BOTTOM LINE:
The Fender Player Plus Meteora is by far the coolest version of the Meteora yet, providing a bold, distinctive voice, expressive vibrato system and eye-catching looks.
