In our CME Exclusive Lavender Haze finish, that sophistication gets a new sheen: a soft-smoldering amethyst that looks equally at home under club lights as it does drifting across Lake Michigan at dusk. Under the hood, our Chicago-developed “Full Dip” pickups give the Jazz Bass a new voice—rounder, warmer, and just dirty enough to cut through the mix thanks to the thoughtful hybrid combination of AlNiCo 2 and AlNiCo 5 magnets and a gentle overwind. Paired with a special circuit mod, this Player II Jazz Bass becomes a bass for every room and every band, unmistakably rooted in Fender heritage but undeniably Chicago Music Exchange. Enhanced with Concentric Stack Knobs, the Lavender Jazz Bass features maximum control with minimal real estate taken up on the bass.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlayer II Lavender Haze Series\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe CME Exclusive Player II series debuts a brand new could-have-been-but-never-was colorway that's unabashedly inspired by mid-century appliances, classic cars, and well... golden-era electric guitars. Make way for Lavender Haze—a smokey amethyst hue with notes of sandy Lake Michigan beaches and fragrant Chicago lilac gardens.

Taking their name from the time- honored way of ordering an Italian beef sandwich in the City of Big Shoulders, these pickups are sonically inspired by decades of experience listening to our customers' needs, dissecting vintage instruments, and working alongside the experts at Fender Custom Shop. “Full Dip” pickups begin with Fender's Vintera II recipe, but add two essential ingredients. First, Alnico 2 magnets tame harsh frequencies, smoothing out the EQ and allowing the notes to bloom. Second—because an Italian beef isn't complete without the giardiniera—we overwound the coils by 5% to add the necessary heat and grit to cut through any mix. To expand these palettes further, each model is equipped with a special circuit modification to unlock tonal options otherwise not available with standard wiring.

This Player II Stratocaster comes alive with CME “Full Dip” pickups, reimagining the classic Vintera II blueprint with sweeter highs, fuller mids, and an extra 5% of Chicago heat. Paired with Alnico 2 magnets, the “Full Dip” pickups are joined by a custom Blender Mod circuit that pushes the Strat’s versatility even further.
