This Player Strat adds a Floyd Rose double-locking tremolo and an HSS pickup layout to the proven Player Series platform, creating a guitar built for dive bombs, flutter effects, and aggressive whammy work that stays perfectly in tune throughout.

The humbucker in the bridge position adds warmth and punch for higher-gain tones, while the two single-coil pickups in the middle and neck positions preserve the classic Strat sound in those positions. The Floyd Rose system requires a little more setup knowledge than a standard tremolo, but it rewards you with tremolo stability that conventional bridges simply can't match. For players who want to go deep with the whammy bar, this is the Player Strat to get.
