Fender American Professional Classic Electric Guitars
Balancing the player-forward features of modern Fenders with the tasteful class of vintage Fenders, the American Professional Classic series is loaded with exciting, new, American-made models designed to be picked up and played. Fender's standby models like the Stratocaster and Telecaster get their time in the limelight along with more seldom-seen models and features.
The Fender American Professional Classic Stratocaster kicks this whole party off with a number of specifications that unify the entire series. The Strat's alder body, like the rest of the instruments' alder bodies, acts as a reliable base off which the entire musical experience can launch. From there, a satin-finished maple neck lands in a Modern "C" profile. The Modern "C" finds itself across the series universally as it connects with a familiar, slimmer, modern-feeling Fender grip. Rosewood and maple fingerboards feature Medium Jumbo-sized frets across every model in the American Professional Classic series.
With this series, Fender introduces a new kind of pickup, Coastlines, that capture Fender's historic single-coil clarity effortlessly. The Coastline pickup, appearing with the Stratocaster's Coastline '57, the Stratocaster HSS's Coastline Humbucker, and the Telecaster's Coastline '63, delivers heaps of warmth and clarity to get their point across in any musical situation. Coastline single-coils also make an appearance with an alternative take on the Tele, the American Professional Classic HotShot Telecaster with a Coastline '57 Stratocaster pickup in its middle position. These new Coastlines are paired in the American Professional Classic series with Fender's handy Greasebucket tone circuit that retains signal clarity automatically when volume and tone are adjusted.
