Fender DE Player II Telecaster Lavender Haze Limited Edition

Fender “Full Dip” pickups

Starting with the Vintera II recipe, Fender added two tasty twists:

• Alnico 2 magnets: The standard Alnico 5 magnets have been swapped for Alnico 2 to tame harsh frequencies, smooth out the EQ and allow your notes to bloom with a sweeter, bell-like top end.
• +5% overwind: A little extra wire gives you more midrange punch and output — perfect for pushing dirt pedals without squashing your dynamics.

4-way series/parallel selector switch

For even more tonal flavour, this Tele features an expanded 4-way switch. The additional position runs both pickups in series, essentially creating one massive, high-output humbucker! Here’s a breakdown of all the pickup settings you can play with:

• Position 1: Bridge pickup.
• Position 2: Bridge & neck pickups (in parallel).
• Position 3: Neck pickup.
• Position 4: Neck & bridge pickups (in series).
