Musician’s Friend has the Fender Player Stratocaster HSS Plus Top Limited-Edition Electric Guitar in Blue Burst for $599.99, with free shipping and 8% Musician’s Friend rewards.
This is slightly higher than a previous deal from 9 weeks ago, but these are new not open box. (At least they’re supposed to be. This is Musician’s Friend we’re talking about.)
Great option for a really attractive Strat with more versatility thanks to the bridge humbucker. The lower tone control also applies to the bridge pickup.
Finally, this is a Player Strat, not a Player Plus. The "Plus" goes with "Top".
