Fender Player Plus Meteora HH Silverburst 2022
Fender Meteora, silverburst, made in Mexico 2022. Fender's Player Plus stuff replaced the Deluxe series: higher end stuff out of Mex with some flash modern appointments. The Meteora is a pretty recent addition to the line, and it's kinda an extra offsetted offset... an evil twin to the Jazmaster. Playing wise, it's sleek: modern C neck with rolled edges and a satin finish, two point trem, locking tuners, balanced body. The Fireball pickups are pretty angry, with heaps of midrange kick and low end growl. You can split them to a chiming single coil tone with the little button on the volume knob, which might prove handy. The silverburst finish is fun too, it's got that steampunk-numetal-chonk steez. Can't wait for the Fender Hybrid Theory to drop at NAMM 2025.
