We love a good crossover collab around here, and the new Limited Edition Fender x PAC-MAN Player II Telecaster is a perfect example. A lot of these sorts of releases can firmly fall in the complete gimmick category, but this is very much the real thing.
Designed in partnership with Bandai Namco, the guitar “that started it all meets the game that changed everything.” You’re looking at a proper Fender Player II Tele here, complete with a Modern “C”-profile neck, 9.5-inch fingerboard with rolled edges, 22 medium jumbo frets, 3-way blade switch, 6-saddle bridge, and ClassicGear tuners.
Fender is excited to announce a partnership with Bandai Namco to celebrate their classic game, PAC-MAN™ — arriving in the form of the renowned Fender Player II Telecaster. Designed to bridge generations, this collaboration speaks to millennials who grew up chasing Ghosts and to a new wave of enthusiasts drawn to nostalgia-driven cultural icons, all while delivering the premium playability today’s guitarists demand.
It’s certainly not the most high-end Tele you can buy, not by a long shot, but it does feature a wonderfully nostalgic PAC-MAN treatment – this thing really plays, in all the ways. Okay, well you can’t play PAC-MAN on it, but you know what I mean.
It features “a bold visual statement” with “the iconic PAC-MAN game on the front and the classic PAC-MAN logo” around back:
