Description
The American Professional II Telecaster draws from more than seventy years of innovation, inspiration and evolution to meet the demands of today’s working player.
Our popular Deep “C” neck sports smooth rolled fingerboard edges, a “Super-Natural” satin finish and a sculpted neck heel for a supremely comfortable feel and easy access to the upper register. V-Mod II Telecaster single-coil pickups are more articulate than ever while delivering the twang, snap and snarl that made the Tele famous. The top-load/string-through bridge with compensated “bullet” saddles is our most comfortable, flexible Tele bridge yet – retaining classic brass-saddle tone and providing excellent intonation and flexible setup options, allowing you to tailor the tension and tone of each string to your liking.
These stellar instruments are now being offered in a Limited Edition thinline configuration, with semi-hollow ash bodies and four beautiful transparent finish options. These wont last long!
Key Features
V-MOD II Pickups- V-Mod II Telecaster pickups are voiced specifically for each position, creating a perfectly balanced tone with the vintage warmth and crisp, clear sound that made Fender a legend.
New Sculpted Neck Heel- The rounded neck heel and beveled neck-plate improve access to the upper register and make leads easy and comfortable.
Top-Load/String-Through Bullet Saddle Tele Bridge- The new Telecaster bridge sports compensated bullet brass barrel saddles for comfort, accurate intonation and vintage-informed tone. Strings can be top-loaded for reduced tension, resulting in a mellower twang and springy attack thats perfect for rock n roll.
Deep C Neck Profile With Rolled Fingerboard Edges- Delivering both comfort and speed, the American Professional II Deep C neck profile is slim at the nut and fills out gradually as it approaches the neck joint to create a natural feel thats perfect for chording and single note playing alike. The hand-rolled fingerboard edges and Super-Natural satin finish provide a supremely comfortable feel.
Special Electronics- A performance-friendly push-push switch on the tone control activates the series mode in position 2, using both pickups to create a fatter tone not normally found on a Tele.
Semi-hollow Ash Body- Ash is atried-and-tested tonewood with a balanced sound perfect for almost any genre – and one that’s been at the tonal heart of Fender guitars for generations.
Always Protected – Includes Deluxe Molded hardshell case
