Back in 2018, Fender replaced its Mexican-made Standard line with the Player series. Mixing classic designs with modern features and a mid-level price, the guitars were perfect for players looking for a true-blue Fender - in looks and tone - at a wallet-friendly price.

Now, Fender has added four new guitars to the Player range - the Mustang, Mustang 90, Duo-Sonic and the Duo-Sonic HS.

You can read more about each of the new guitars below.
