In 1979, Fender launched the Lead Series as a response to high - quality, affordable imported guitars. This series introduced a fresh solid - body design, hard - tail bridges, and innovative wiring options, sparking a new creative period in Fender's history. The Player Lead II pays tribute to those 70s models. It features dual - slanted Player series single - coil pickups, a modern 'C' shaped neck with medium jumbo frets, and two toggle switches (one for pickup selection and one for phase - reverse). Its distinct Lead double - cutaway shape is truly eye - catching. Available in Neon Green, Crimson Red Transparent (true to vintage colors), and Black. The Player Lead Series combines style, power, and versatility in an easy - to - play package.

Using your Fender Player Lead II Electric Guitar is a breeze. First, plug it into an amplifier using a standard instrument cable. You can use the dual - toggle switches to select different pickups and adjust the phase. This gives you a wide range of tones to play with. When it comes to playing, hold the guitar comfortably, and use your fretting hand to press down on the strings at the desired frets while strumming or plucking with your other hand. For maintenance, keep your guitar clean. Wipe it down after each use with a soft cloth to remove sweat and dirt. You can use a guitar polish to keep the body finish looking great. Check the strings regularly. When they start to sound dull or lose their tone, it's time to replace them. Use the Fender® USA 250L Nickel Plated Steel strings of the recommended gauge. Also, make sure to keep your guitar in a suitable environment. Avoid extreme temperatures and humidity, as these can damage the wood and affect the tuning. If you're not using the guitar for a long time, store it in a guitar case to protect it from dust and accidental bumps.
