Fender Player Series Saturday Night Special limited-edition models are hot rodded with Seymour Duncan Saturday Night Special pickups and dressed up in Daytona Blue finishes reminiscent of ’60s muscle cars. The supercharged flair of these speedsters is amplified with fast and inviting modern-C profile maple necks, comfy 9.5" radius maple fretboards and alder bodies.

“The Tele has all the twang you’d expect,” says Fender Play instructor and touring musician Nikki Stevens. “But what really jumped out is the bite of the bridge pickup. It sounds great for thrash metal—which is something you might not associate with a Telecaster. I come from a Strat background, so I love Superstrats, and I wanted to see how the Seymour Duncan humbucker on the HSS Stratocaster rips. That humbucker packs a wallop, but it still has a smoothness and clarity to it. When I play bass, I get pretty rowdy, because I’m into punk and hard rock. The heavy treble tone you can dial in on the Precision Bass gets me that spanky, thwack-y kind of sound. There’s exceptional, top-tier tone for all the models in the series.”
