Nice rundown. As for the noiseless pickups, the only people who have any issues with them are internet TROLLS....guys who are in their mid-30's living in their parents basement wearing Star Wars T-Shirts. They have little more to do than try and create arguments on the internet instead of practicing their guitar. These are the same guys who think equipment drives how you sound instead of how the person drives the sound. If I accidentally hit a forum when searching for something, I run as fast as possible AWAY. Keep up the good work and btw, those noiseless pickups sound great!
@Epic Properties screw in. I bought some springs and put one down inside I’m not sure if it even had one to begin with but they’re only a few bucks. But it made the trem a lot more sturdy.
@@Bellon_am Nice, I might check one of those out. I recently put the new Eric Johnson pickups, plus Graphteck saddles into my 2006 MIM, and it sounds incredible.
@@theodosios2615 I used to have a Mim standard and it was really nice guitar... I didn't like the pickups but the guitar was more than great for the price
Yupzz same here awesome strat 600 euro,s back then something like that the 69 pickups with the 12 radius board killer !! Still sounds better then alot i tried also. (dont include the really high end strats )
The player plus series are tremendous. I work in a guitar store and we see many U.S and Mex Fenders come and go. I still recommend the player plus series over the American Performer and even the American Professional II. Just my two cents.. ✌
Agree completely. Was about to spring for an Am Pro 2 strat, but, IMHO, the neck of the Player Plus was just SO much better. Will be picking up my player plus tomorrow.
I just got mine last night. AMAZING Strat! I think, they nailed Quality + Value $ = WOW! For someone like me (like alot of us) that has to make every penny count, when buying new gear... for nearly 1/2 the cost of buying an 'American' made, you CAN'T be disappointed.
Love them. I wandered into guitar center and after getting a squire tele . I went back to get something a little more quality . Picked up the stratocaster player series HSS plus top, sienna sunburst and was just thrilled with it. Hadn't had a good guitar in a while. Maple neck, with the humbucker near bridge, the player series is really pleasing my palate taste. Highly recommend. Thanks for video really enjoyed it. Subscribed.
I think I got the same guitar although I don't think the Player came in a sienna burst. Mine is called a plus top aged cherry which everyone refers to as the cherry burst. At any rate it is almost the same as the sienna burst.
Player plus top strat is special edition color, sienna sunburst, that’s what I says on sticker any. I wish I had gotten that aged cherry. But the sierra caught my eye.
I've got the Silver Smoke tele. I've never been a Fender fan, but I've always disliked strats. Tried the Silver Smoke player plus tele on a whim. Wound up liking it even more than premium American teles.
These are great sounding guitars, but I think the most important takeaway from this is "over-egg the pudding". That saying will now become a part of my vocabulary. Thanks Jack!
I can't be the only one that thinks the Pau Ferro boards on the Player Series guitars look terrible. It just looks very very cheap. Luckily the maple fretboard option looks great as usual. I also don't like the new popsicle colors on the Plus line. They're sounding great though!
I bought a Player cherry burst HSS strat earlier in 2021 and went with the maple fretboard for just this reason. All these talking heads are trying their best to put lipstick on the Pau Ferro fretboards so Fender will sell them but it ain't going to be to me...
If you find a guitar you like...but don't like the pau ferro board....do what I did....lightly sand the board with some 600 grit sand paper and stain it. It darkens the wood a bit....evens out the color...and makes it resemble rosewood. Granted it takes a couple hours....but the results are impressive.
I wish they would darken up the pau ferro boards. I have no issues with using the material but light brown necks are off putting to me in the same way an upside down headstock is. It’s just not the look I want. Personal opinion only
I love mine. I have sunburst SSS maple neck player plus. Great feeling and player. Hate the pull knob. I can barely get it to pull. I really wish they would have just put an S1 switch in it instead. But other than that i love it. My favorite guitar. Oh I will admit the noiseless as great as they sound do lack a little of that sustain of a traditional strat pickup. Just my opinion.
16:40 that "Fender Player Plus Strat Maple Tequila Sunrise - Fuzz" is a huge departure from previous Strat's. I mean if you squint. To my eyes that looks exactly like a Fender Player Plus Nashville Telecaster. Honestly never seen a Strat quite like it. Props to Fender for being willing to take risks.
OK, what did you just do there on the SSS player plus Stratocaster? You pulled out the tone knob...What does that do? I don't see it on the specs...I haven't looked at the Fender website to see what that is all about...maybe it covers it there...but if someone out there has one of these, I d appreciate you telling be what that achieves...thanks in advance...
Here in Australia the MIM have gone up in price where they match used American, or for a little more a new American made performer or professional on sale. The Plus are the same cost as an American performer.
I bought both radiant Stratocasters. Amazing instruments. I have an 1982 blue burst fender Stratocaster. So I bought them both for the 40th anniversary nostalgia and the paint job but the guitars are fricking great🤣 also the new black player strat w fat 50 Pickups and roasted maple neck is an amazing guitar.
Not a big fan of Fender Noiseless pickups. I'm glad I've got my American Special Tele and Strat (prior to the Performers) with the Texas Special pickups. Sure, they have extra "noise", but the frequencies coming out of those pickups make up for the hum.
Any more details on these noiseless pickups? Are they made in Mexico? As I see it, Fender has been continually improving its noiseless pickups starting with the Vintage Noiseless, then SCN, N3, Gen 4, and finally Ultra. Are these Player Plus Noiseless pickups the successor to the Ultra? If not, where do they fit in Fender’s noiseless pickup lineup?
Been playing guitar for 36 years. Never owned a Fender or a strat! Always PRS, Ibanez and Maverick. So I thought I’d get a player plus Fender. I got the tequila sunrise. Well unfortunately it arrived and the action and fret buzz was appalling. On the treble side, action was 2.5mm! Any adjustment of the saddles meant that I had buzz everywhere. Notes were choking out on bends. Just awful. Intonation was miles out too. There were other build qualities too. Spoke to the guitar shop and they said I must be unlucky so they sent another. This one was 2.2mm at 12th fret. Intonation was ok’ish. Fret buzz absolutely terrible. But worse this time was a paint or lacquer overspray on the frets. Some of it I could peel off, some of it was really stubborn. You could feel it under the strings as you played. So I sent it back too. Not great for $1000 dollar guitar. Really sad because the tequila sunrise looked great! I have pictures of the quality issues.
I'm left handed, all I want is a fender USA Stratocaster in fiesta red for around 1200 to 1500 pounds. Cant get one anywhere. Can you help Peach guitars?
The green tele looks great. In not a fan of the faded strat colours but I really like the fact they have gone for a 12 inch radius board. Another really great review from peach guitars. Some of the best reviewers on the tube
Best revue about this new range of fender guitar jack 👌 I know jack is a very reserved person but seeing him smiling today was a plus 🤫😉🤙 greetings from marrakech
As a fellow lefty, I get you. Probably not because it’s in that 800-1200 dollar range that fender tends not to offer anything lefty. Too bad cause I would really like to try out a Nashville tele.
They're great guitars, but there are two issues: 1) The noiseless pickups don't quite have the traditional single coil cut. They're more like humbuckers (since they are essentially humbuckers). 2) For the money, you can get a used late model American Fender.
This guitar is Proof that your essentially paying for labor costs to have that “made in USA “ on your headstock. These two factories are what? 60 miles from each other? And Mexican craftsmanship imo has ALWAYS been great when building guitars! I’d take the specs of this guitar all day over the American counter part and save enough money to buy a few things afterwards. Exactly why I bought the Player plus tele! Amazing axe!!
I'm looking for a guiter right now. I play on my sons Squire Classic Vibe Strat and so far love it but I think I need my own axe lol. However, I was testing out the Player Plus Tele and the Sepcial Edition Custom Tele, they are both in the same price range but are very different Instruments tbh. I'm a bit torn, I think the sound of the Special Edition is very interesting because of it's HH setup also I like the modern design with the glued and contoured neck and all the nice stuff but on the other hand, the Player Plus feels more "pro" than the Special Edition, it plays so wonderful and yes, it also does sound great and, most important (lol), it's Mexican made vs. the Special Edition being Indonesia made (or even korea or china, don't know)... Price is about the same so I'm really unsure which one I should get. I don't want another Strat just because we already have one, what I kinda dislike about the Player Plus Teles is the color variations, I would have loved to see some more modern colorvariants there as well, something like the tequila burst they did on the Player Plus Strat...
Recuerdo un familiar mío( dep), que era un virtuoso de la guitarra eléctrica, que estuvo toda la tarde en la tienda de música, probando entre una Fender strato MEX, que costaba unos 700 $ y una Fender strato USA, mismo color y pastillas etc... y que costaba 1.400 $, el doble que la mexicana. El vendedor, insistiendo una y otra vez, sobre las cualidades de la americana, que si Fender USA por allí, que si USA por allá...y mi pariente, probando una y otra, y otra vez. Al final de la tarde mi pariente dice ; " Eric Clapton notará la diferencia... pero yo no, así que me llevo la mexicana, y con la diferencia me compro otra guitarra"
They are great as to where the MIM has been for a longtime. I just think it's funny all the original MIM types really did want the American Standard, that's what these are. Now that they really are the same, it's clear they really wanted the American, the entire time, amd it was just a narrative with the original MIM line. I'll never believe otherwise.
I can understand the need for a Nashville tele but it ruins one of my favourite things about the tele that being the real estate for the strumming hand. I use fingers a lot and they catch on the middle pickup. Ya I know all strats are the same and yes I do own and love strats as well. They do require me to play differently and be more conscious of my technique which is always a good thing.
Glad they updated the string tree on the Player Plus. Pity they didn’t ditch the Pao Ferro and replace it with Indian Rosewood. Still, I am left-handed so this range is not targeted at me.
1 Tele with Gen 4 noiseless pickups, 1 Strat also with Gen 4 N., 1 Tele with Twisted Tele pickups, 1 Tele with Texas Special custom shop pickups, 1 Strat with 60’s Original Pickups, and lastly one Partscaster Tele with Cavalier Lion King pickups, the Cavaliers are my favorite
This is kinda what I was waiting for but they really missed for me. Pau Ferro ugh! Seriously that Pau Ferro is a deal breaker on any guitar. I want rosewood! The colors are horrible. Another thing that really sucks about strats is the weight. Most of them are close to 9 lbs. 7-1/2 lbs is okay. Nothing over that. The search continues.
Apparently: they sent you the most beautiful Pau Ferro fretboad guitars ever made....or I got a couple shitty ones. Mine are nowhere close to that. Of course; I don't have a RUclips channel.....so.....there's that.
Lots of negative comments about the Pau Ferro but I honestly think it looks fine in contrast to my silver burst finish. And as others have pointed out, lemon oil darkens it up a bit.
Hopefully for the extra 200 bucks they finally addressed the damn sharp fret ends these demo guys all over youtube fail to mention. My 2020 nashville tele is bad and my 2020 70`s vintera deluxe tele will need every damn fret end filed down.
It is shoved into our brains that anything other than an American made Strat is the enemy and demands disrespect from the purists. I ordered the HSS model in Belair Blue and it is arriving tomorrow. I’m looking forward to it.
@@SiddharthKarunakaran hi! I am very happy with it. It feels just like my old American Strat. I cannot say that I enjoy the Fireball humbucker’s sound. I may change that. But the feel is perfect for me.
Here we go again, ok people, seriously, look at around 2010 era Deluxe USA strats and teles. That's these. Cept it'll be rosewood, and better color options, se price used. It won't be when ya sell either of these later, the American will grow, this will stay frozen, right where it is, in time.
These seem to have taken the space which was occupied by the Performer Series (which hasn't been mentioned in a while and may actually be dead in the water).
Not as good as the mexican roadhouse deluxe. Gave one of these a go the other day, hated the neck, they have over rolled the fingerboard, the pickups aren't very fendery a more modern sound. You are better buying a player series and buying a fender american loaded pickguard and having your choice of american pickups, will cost the same as a player plus!
Yeah those numbers don’t add up lol. You’d be spending more to get all the same features on the plus. Nothing wrong with a modern fender sound. You can always swap out the pickups if you care that much.
I’ve had lot of fenders and these are really good . They just feel quality and play superbly . I got a tele one . The necks are perfect . And for someone who is super picky about necks , normally much prefer a 7.25 thicker neck. These just feel super comfy and easy to play . Rolled edges make a huge difference, and a great c profile not too thin not too thick. I wouldn’t get the weird colours tho. Stick with 3TSB or faded candy .

Sounding killer! 🤘
I got the player plus telecaster in burst & I love everything about it. From the 12" radius to the noiseless pups, it's just a great guitar.
I bought the same! Love the burst, love the guitar
I really like that Cosmic Jade Tele, looks and sounds great.
Have to say... "Jack" has a great "Presentation" style for doing "Reviews"... Thanks Peach Guitars...

I've got a 2015 classic player strat, and I think is one of the best MIM Fenders I've ever played (69s pickups are amazing)
Did the 69's come standard installed, or did you upgrade them?

The cosmic jade tele makes me want to grab a waistcoat and blast out some good old Status Quo boogie Francis Rossi style.
What about fender deluxe roadhouse strat MIM? It has noiseless pickups and round heel.
What serial no. Was the cosmic jade tele

The Push/Pull knob activates the neck pickup in switch positions one and two, adding two unique pickup configurations not normally found on a Strat.
@@PeachGuitars Hey, thanks for responding back; I really appreciate it!
Yes they are and they give you mabye the closest sound of the old-school straps I've ever heard tbh lol love it
Picking up an SSH strat in cosmic jade tomorrow. I like the blue fade but Pau ferro fretboards makes guitars look so cheap IMO
They have Player Plus in maple necks too. Not sure about in blue though.
Those fuzz tones with the cosmic jade tele😍😍😍
The current MiM Fenders are so good, it's hard to justify spending twice as much money.
Amen Brother. I bought a Red Noventa tele. Sweet👍🏿
Here in Australia the MIM have gone up in price where they match used American, or for a little more a new American made performer or professional on sale. The Plus are the same cost as an American performer.
bought a Nashville tele in sunburst.
Super impressed with it.
@@teknomanning I wouldn't buy a Tele without noiseless pickups unless you like the sound of bees.
Twice the money? The American Performer is only $200 more!
Hi, as far as looks, do you personally think the pau ferro or maple looks better on the telecaster? Sound about the same?
I bought both radiant Stratocasters. Amazing instruments. I have an 1982 blue burst fender Stratocaster. So I bought them both for the 40th anniversary nostalgia and the paint job but the guitars are fricking great🤣 also the new black player strat w fat 50
Pickups and roasted maple neck is an amazing guitar.
You make them sound really good. What amp and or effects are you using ? I'm very happy with my 2000 mex fat Strat.

Just a slight redo of the Deluxe series without a contour heel .
But I do like the Nashville style tele😊
I need a lefty in Cosmic Jade!
As I understand it, the performer series isn’t selling very well. I’m guessing Fender may discontinue that model.
Not when you can just buy the Yosemite pups & stick 'em into a Squier Affinity lol!
I own a players series tele blue burst and its the best guitar ive ever played by far!!!
I would love to have one of these. Highly doubt they’ll make any left handed ones though.
As a fellow lefty, I get you. Probably not because it’s in that 800-1200 dollar range that fender tends not to offer anything lefty. Too bad cause I would really like to try out a Nashville tele.
Restring, turn upside down. Voila.
They're great guitars, but there are two issues:
1) The noiseless pickups don't quite have the traditional single coil cut. They're more like humbuckers (since they are essentially humbuckers).
2) For the money, you can get a used late model American Fender.
Are they better than the japanese line?

@@SiddharthKarunakaran hi! I am very happy with it. It feels just like my old American Strat. I cannot say that I enjoy the Fireball humbucker’s sound. I may change that. But the feel is perfect for me.
Maybe, but with those colors theyre not going to find many buyers. What were they thinking...
I changed pickups Noiseless on Fender Player guitar stratocaster and play great better.Fender player plus is better than American performer.
Love the SSS Teles
I came to hear Jack.👍🏿
Remember jack sounds great on everything💁
Wanting the noise and humm on a guitar because it's always been there in the old days, is like wanting a new car to come with rust.
Here we go again, ok people, seriously, look at around 2010 era Deluxe USA strats and teles. That's these. Cept it'll be rosewood, and better color options, se price used. It won't be when ya sell either of these later, the American will grow, this will stay frozen, right where it is, in time.
omg brendan fraser
These seem to have taken the space which was occupied by the Performer Series (which hasn't been mentioned in a while and may actually be dead in the water).
These would be excellence if they had roasted maple necks. Btw the dots should go! Make more artistic inlays
Not as good as the mexican roadhouse deluxe. Gave one of these a go the other day, hated the neck, they have over rolled the fingerboard, the pickups aren't very fendery a more modern sound. You are better buying a player series and buying a fender american loaded pickguard and having your choice of american pickups, will cost the same as a player plus!
Yeah those numbers don’t add up lol. You’d be spending more to get all the same features on the plus. Nothing wrong with a modern fender sound. You can always swap out the pickups if you care that much.
Over egg the pudding
Francis Rossi eat your heart out
They’re great but for the price save a little more and get a M.I.A.
I'm not even remotely interested in buying one of these for the price they want.
It is not american noiseless pickups, it is player noiseless pickups, mexican made. The rest is very good about these guitars.
Is there a difference between the two?
@@theodosios2615 I dont think it has such a big difference, but it affects on the prices.
Do you have to get the stupid paint-jobs?
Weak pickups.
So the ultras, I think we’re a bust,so this now.
This is not a slight against Peach. This is a slight against Fender - Get back to the drawing board because these guitars are garbage.
Why?
I’ve had lot of fenders and these are really good . They just feel quality and play superbly . I got a tele one . The necks are perfect . And for someone who is super picky about necks , normally much prefer a 7.25 thicker neck. These just feel super comfy and easy to play . Rolled edges make a huge difference, and a great c profile not too thin not too thick.
I wouldn’t get the weird colours tho. Stick with 3TSB or faded candy .
Great for a beginner or the mean player who won't pay for a real guitar... mass produced 'guitars... Jack wouldn't lite the fire with these.
