For sale is a nice 2023 Fender 'Player' Stratocaster, made in Mexico.
 
I believe 2023 was the first year Seafoam Green was an available colour for Player Series guitars, having usually been reserved for Custom Shop / AVRI and FSR guitars.
 
I'm describing this guitar as 'used', but one could mistake this for a new/near-new guitar as its pretty much unplayed. As such, it's in phenomenal condition - looking it up and down I can't see anything in the way of dings or notable marks.
 
I think this run of Mexican Strats are quite nice - they feature a 2-point tremolo, which was only available on USA Standard models for quite some time. The Seafoam Green finish is a clear winner - very handsome and really 'pops' against the white 3 ply guard.
 
The neck is maple and being a 2023, features a Pau Ferro fingerboard, which is relatively dark in colour and one of the nicer examples I've seen. Plays nicely with a comfortable action - frets naturally are near-untouched.
 
It plays nicely, sounds very Strat-like (naturally) and would be a great upgrade from someone looking to move up from a Classic Vibe or similar. 100% Fender-built through and through by the talented team at the Mexican factory, just a few miles south of the Corona USA plant
 
I will throw in a Fender-branded gig bag with this one (pictured). It has no tremolo arm, though I'll search through my collection and will include a non-original trem arm if I have one with the correct thread!
 
Near about the same price as a Squier Classic Vibe - a lot of guitar for the money with a very desirable factory finish.
