Fender Player Duo Sonic Maple Fingerboard Electric Guitar Tidepool

feels great love the neck and sound! no complaints just perfect

My favorite guitar neck lasted 6 years have to have A custom neck built because fender wont sell one What's the point of a Bolt on neck ?

I was very excited about receiving this item, but was i very disappointed when i recieved it. The volume knob didn't work, turn it all the way down and it just sounded like i was hearing it from down the hallway. The selector switch in middle position caused static. Very disappointed

I bought this used for almost half the price and it was in pretty great shape except that a pickup had fallen in. I opened the pickguard and found the spring stuck to the magnet of the pickup. Guess somebody had messed with it and missed the spring when reassembling. The toggle switch sounded like it was going out and felt cheap so I bought a new one for $10. The desert sand color looks great. I like that the guitar is so light. The pickups sound good but I may end up modding it in the future. I have several other guitars but currently find myself reaching for this one almost exclusively. The simple controls are nice. One of my favorite features is the satin finish neck. I'm kind of a particular about that. Don't know why you can't get a Fender or Squier with classic controls that also has a satin neck. i.e. classic vibe/vintera

A lot of potential here. Guitar came in setup well, beautiful desert sand and sounding great. It's unfortunate that only a year later their are so many electronics issues with it. Any potential buyer should read up on the well known toggle switch problems this model is prone to. As well as experiencing the aforementioned issue, the rest of the electronics on mine are failing a year in. The once surprisingly beautiful sounding pickups on this guitar have become anemic and noisy. I understand we can't expect perfection. Out of the box I was thrilled with the guitar at this price point, however having to gut the electronics out of this guitar less than a year later is not ideal. I think most of us have seen some squire's electronics hold up longer. In conclusion, you're getting a wonderful guitar for the price point, but be prepared to invest in maintenance early. Personally, there aren't any local shops around that specialize in this sort of thing in my area. Outside of the cost factor, the time factor is something to consider if you find yourself in a similar situation. The positive I can take out of this is that after it's serviced, I'm motivated to purchase a soldering iron and learn a new skill! 3/5

This is my favorite guitar. It's great! I'm a smaller person so I'm very particular when it comes to the feel of the instrument. Enter the Duo-Sonic. It is a small-scale guitar and fits me like a guitar should. It's almost always the one I reach for. it's been so comfortable to play. It's lightweight, the neck feels amazing, and it sounds beautiful. Played clean, the Duo-Sonic has a bright sound. I have the model with two single coil pickups (tidepool color). I'm glad Fender re-issued this. I'm even happier I bought it.
