Musician's Friend has the Fender Player Stratocaster HSS Plus Top Limited-Edition Electric Guitar in Blue Burst for $599.99, with free shipping and 8% Musician's Friend rewards.
This is slightly higher than a previous deal from 9 weeks ago, but these are new not open box. (At least they're supposed to be. This is Musician's Friend we're talking about.)
Great option for a really attractive Strat with more versatility thanks to the bridge humbucker. The lower tone control also applies to the bridge pickup.
Finally, this is a Player Strat, not a Player Plus. The "Plus" goes with "Top".

Those stacked pickups sound different than the regular humbucker does though.
To be fair, HSS (even if it's effectively HHH) looks better than actual HHH does. HHH looks funky. Some people may like that. I'm not sure lol. I think HH is cool.
What would be truly short bus special is putting the humbucker on a HSS crooked like they do when they put a regular pickup in the bridge position.
Honorable mention: The G&L split pickups.

But no one has even posted those alternatives as deals in their own right.
