Fender American Professional Stratocaster Electric Guitar Rosewood in Dark Night w/Case - 0111110761

Fender American Professional Stratocaster w/Case

Classic Fender character updated with three V-Mod III Strat single-coils, a Deep "C" neck and an upgraded 2-point tremolo, an alder body and a rosewood fretboard

Aimed squarely at working musicians, the Fender American Professional Stratocaster joins an alder body with a maple neck and rosewood fretboard. Its 25.5" (648 mm) scale, Deep "C" profile and 22 narrow tall frets support a familiar, controlled feel, while the model-specific electronics and hardware are designed to deliver bell-like chime, warmth and articulate Strat clarity. The result is a versatile American-made instrument intended for regular rehearsal, recording and live use.

Features

Fender's neck treatment combines a Deep "C" maple neck with rolled fretboard edges and Fender's satin urethane treatment on the back. The sculpted neck heel improves access toward the upper frets, while the 9.5" (241 mm) radius, 22 narrow tall frets and bone nut give the instrument a consistent, performance-minded playing surface.

Electronics are built around three V-Mod III single-coil Strat pickups. They retain the familiar bell-like chime and warmth while increasing articulation, and the push-push tone control can add the neck pickup for extra combinations beyond the standard 5-way settings.

The mechanical side of the instrument is just as considered: an upgraded 2-point synchronized tremolo with a cold-rolled steel block, pop-in arm and ClassicGear Radial bent-steel saddles. The design is intended to improve sustain, clarity and high-end sparkle while keeping action and intonation adjustments accessible.

Smooth, repeatable control comes from ClassicGear Precision potentiometers, another working-player detail in the build. For transport and storage, a Fender Deluxe Molded Case is included.
